Lorraine Ellison

Dip.Hom.Med. AHA

We all vary in our ability to adapt to, and cope with stress. Stress can be divided into 2 main categories, healthy stress and unhealthy stress. Healthy stress pushes you to perform better e.g. gaining that little extra from your body in a race. Unhealthy stress brings you near to overloading - you make mistakes...you fall ill.

The body operates as a unit, with the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual working together to maintain balance.

Your symptoms, the signs or indications of your being ill - are an expression of need and a call for help from your body on any of these levels.

A homeopathic prescriber is a symptom sleuth!

The homeopathic medicine prescribed can be equally effective when dealing with chronic conditions e.g. menopause, arthritis, anxiety and depression, as with more acute conditions such as 'flu', morning sickness, also falls, stings, burns, hangovers, digestive upsets etc etc.

Homeopathy works beautifully with children. Help is at hand for night terrors, behavioural difficulties, colic and much more.

Being the mother of young adults and a teenager, Lorraine has developed an extensive and sensible understanding in this area. Lorraine initially worked in pathology, studying part time for a New Zealand Certificate of Science.

Lorraine also has a long standing interest in the psychological connections to disease, especially depression, behaviour and major life transitions. She brings a steady quietness to the consultation, making it easy for the client to talk and their story unfold. This is an integral part of the visit to the homeopath, allowing a thorough understanding of the client, and the issues - physical and emotional - to develop.

Kim Powell

Dip.Hom. Dip.Botanical Medicine Hom.Post Grad. Studies

Kim first became interested in natural therapies when her younger brother, who had asthma, was on constant medication. Being disenchanted with his treatment she studied Naturopathy graduating in 1989. Her study in Homeopathy led to a Post Graduate course. Much of her current interest is in Asthma, and the anxiety it brings for the whole family. In general Kim’s practice includes treatment of the many different types of anxiety that go hand in hand with menopause, headaches, migraine and sleep issues. She has found that other problems such as RSI and tenosynovitis can be effectively relieved using homeopathic treatment along with bodywork. Kim is happy to work along side your chiropractor or osteopath.

Kim has seen some amazing results with homeopathy and her patients enjoy her quirky sense of humour, her friendly attitude and good listening ability. She feels homeopathy often surpasses other forms of treatment being a subtle yet powerful method of healing.

Vaishali Shah

M. Sc (Psych), Dip Hom, Post- grad Dip.Couns & Health Psychology

Vaishali Shah has over eight years experience practicing Homeopathy. Vaishali trained at the Homeopathic Medical College, India. She has been a part of M L Dhawale Homeopathic Hospital in India for four years and has gained enormous  experience in treating acute and chronic diseases having been exposed to a wide range of patho-physiological conditions.

 

The mind and body has a dynamic interaction and it is well known that emotional causes can have great impact on the physical body. This requires an individualistic approach to treatment which is a major strength of homeopathy.

 

Every individual is different and homeopathy acknowledges and appreciates the person as a whole, rather than focusing on the diseased parts of the body.

 

Vaishali has completed  a Masters Degree in Psychology and has a Post-graduate Diploma in Counselling and Health Psychology. These  skills complement her in- depth understanding of homeopathy and enhance her ability to treat her patients most effectively.

 

Homeopathy is safe, gentle, natural and effective for all age groups and is excellent in pregnancy.
