Homoeopathy

Homoeopathy was founded by Samuel Hahnemann 1755-1843. The word ‘homoeopathy’ is derived from the two Greek words ‘homeo’, meaning similar, and ‘pathos’, which means suffering.

Homoeopathy is a system of medicine that takes a holistic & individualised approach to each patient by applying the principle of ‘like cures like’. This alludes to the fact that in practice, a remedy that can produce certain effects on a healthy individual can cure those similar effects when they are related to an ill person.

Homoeopathic medicine stimulates the body’s innate defences so that the natural process of healing can take place.

Yoga is the practice of postures (asanas) in order to promote physical, mental and spiritual health & well-being. It is about creating balance in the body through the development of flexibility & strength. In addition, yoga offers benefits for blood circulation, the functioning of the organs & glands, and the regulation of the nervous system.

Tai Chi

Tai Chi Chuan is an ancient Chinese form of martial arts. Translated, it means “Grand ultimate Fist”. It was first practiced as a fighting form, with emphasis on balance, strength, flexibility, and agility. It eventually evolved into a gentle form of exercise, bringing positive and negative forces into harmony between the body and its surroundings through a specific flow of movements.
