Catherine initially came into contact with Homeopathy when her daughter, as a child, suffered from bad eczema. Conventional hydrocortisone treatment seemed to be the only option but, following her homeopathic treatment the results were amazing and the eczema disappeared. Catherine then undertook a homeopathic First Aid Course which led her to carry out a 4 year training course at Regents College in London where her dissertation was an extensive study, with a fellow colleague, on the herbal and homeopathic usage of 6 different flowers, illustrating that in many cases the plants used in both disciplines have remarkably similar properties. In 2006 she subsequently carried out further studies in order to obtain her Registration with the Society of Homeopaths, the largest organisation in Europe registering professional homeopaths.
She practised extensively in South London and her patients included HIV positive patients, sent to her for treatment to address the side effects of antiretroviral medication, and has a long standing interest in addictions and mental health issues.
Eventually, having decided she missed the sea, Catherine moved to the Isle of Wight where she was invited to practice from Cowes Chiropractic Clinic. Since then her practice has grown extensively and she has been able to help an increasing number of patients with many differing problems, varying from menopausal symptoms, sleep problems, depression and grief to a great variety of children's problems.

Homeopathy
Gentle, Effective, Holistic - is an effective and scientific system of healing which assists the natural tendency of the body to heal itself. It recognizes that all symptoms of ill health are expressions of disharmony within the whole person and that it is the patients who need treatment not the disease. Patients are given a homeopathic medicine or remedy which matches their symptoms as they experience them. This also takes account of them as a person - their individual characteristics, emotionally as well as physically.
Properly prescribed homeopathic remedies are safe and can also be given to pregnant women, babies and children. The remedies can also be given alongside conventional medicine to help alleviate the side-effects of any medication. The remedies are prepared in Department of Health licensed laboratories, to stringent standards of quality.
15 minutes acute consultations are available for problems such as - teething, coughs & colds, flu, sore throats, earache, vomiting, diarrhoea, fever, bruising, breaks and pre/post surgery.
