Course description
Homeopathy uses highly diluted substances as a form of treatment to help the body heal itself. The main principle of the practice is that a substance that can cause certain symptoms can also help to remove those symptoms. It is used to treat a very wide range of conditions, including physical conditions such as asthma, as well as psychological conditions such as depression. You will explore what homeopathy is in more detail, before learning how to offer the practice to a client. The course will allow you to study when and where you want, at your own pace.
