Description
This book is written specifically to provide information and support for the homoeopathic home prescriber. It gives instant access to a wealth of information about commonly-used homoeopathic remedies, symptom pictures and a Materia Medica, and is a must-have accompaniment to your home remedy kit. Homoeopathic remedies have a long history of effective use for the self-treatment of everyday, simple ailments such as bumps and bruises, bites and stings, colds, coughs, tummy upsets, study and exam problems and many more. Homoeopathy is widely embraced in the United Kingdom, America, Europe and Asia, and to a lesser extent, Australia. In the late 1700’s a German doctor, Samuel Hahnemann, discovered a different approach to the cure of the sick called Homoeopathy, which is an effective and scientific system of healing to assist the natural tendency of the body to heal itself. It recognises that symptoms of ill health are expressions of disharmony and that it is the patient who needs treatment not the disease.. A Homoeopathic medicine is understood to act by stimulating a healing response in the body by way of its similarity to the existing complaint. When choosing a remedy we note the important symptoms experienced by the person and select a remedy with a similar ‘remedy picture’. A very small dose of that remedy is then administered to stimulate healing. The guidelines in this book are for the treatment of simple and minor complaints. In Homoeopathy emphasis is put on the individuals own unique experience of their symptoms. There is not simply one remedy for a particular illness, but rather one remedy, out of a whole group, which is carefully selected on the basis of each person's own variation of that illness. More than 15,000 Homoeopathy for the Home Prescriber hardcopy booklets have already been sold Australia-wide. The advent of this e-book puts the solution for a myriad of minor health and wellness issues at readers’ fingertips, whenever and wherever they need it.
About the author
Jan Owen is a practising homoeopath, with over 20 years experience in homoeopathy. She has written extensively on homoeopathy and its efficacy in dealing with health issues, as well as writing and producing numerous information leaflets and booklets dealing with particular health problems. Jan’s early background was in dental and veterinary nursing, but her interest in homoeopathy developed many years ago when she bought a home prescribing book and remedy kit and took her asthmatic son to a homoeopath - with outstanding results. She was amazed at the improvement and subsequent freedom from asthma experienced by her son, and even more surprised to have such great success with the home kit for the various ailments and accidents that beset any young family. Thus began a lifelong affair with homoeopathy. Jan subsequently studied homoeopathy, whilst working with a practitioner in Perth. After completing her studies she established her own clinic and later went on to open a manufacturing centre as well as a retail store, consulting rooms and a Homoeopathic Education Centre for the public. The primary focus of this Centre is educating the public and allied health care professionals in the applications of homoeopathy for simple home prescribing. Classes and talks are offered through the centre to both the public and professional groups. A further initiative of the Centre is the launch of the Owen Homoeopathics range of simplex remedies onto the retail market. This is the first step in fulfilling Jan’s dream to make homoeopathy accessible and easy to use for every Australian. There are now more than 400 stockists across Australia, and the book ‘Homoeopathy for the Home Prescriber’ was written as a complement to the Owen range of medicines. To date more than 15,000 hard copies have been sold Australia-wide.
