Homeopathy Awareness Week

Homeopathy treats each person as a unique individual with the aim of stimulating their own natural healing ability. A homeopath selects the most appropriate medicine based on the individual’s specific symptoms and personal level of health. Homeopathy has been used effectively as a system of natural medicine across the world for over two hundred years. One of homeopathy’s defining features is that it views each patient as a unique individual.

Homeopathy Awareness Week (HAW) takes place from 10th-16th April each year. April 10th 1755 was the day on which Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, was born.

During Homeopathy Awareness Week, people from around the world gather together to commemorate Hahnemann’s birth, and to raise awareness of how homeopathy can help to improve health and wellbeing. Homeopaths, patients of homeopathy, and others interested in natural healthcare, come together to celebrate homeopathy as a safe, gentle, natural and sustainable system of medicine.

Homeopathy Awareness Week is both a national and an international event. It provides the opportunity to organise a range of activities aimed at raising public awareness of the many benefits of homeopathy. This makes it a really good time for you to find out more about what homeopathy is, who it can help, and where to find a qualified practitioner.

In the UK, 15% of our population already use homeopathy, and a further 80% have heard about it. However, many people are not quite sure what makes homeopathy different from other systems of medicine. The events which are organised during Homeopathy Awareness Week are there to help you to learn more about homeopathy, and the many health benefits which it can bring to everyone.

Millions of people already use homeopathy to support their daily health and wellbeing. In fact, an estimated 450 million people worldwide use homeopathy each year.

Maybe Homeopathy Awareness Week is your opportunity to start your homeopathy journey?
