Welcome to the homeo-path

The road that leads to your best state of health.

Did You Know?

Homeopathy is a mind-body therapy that celebrates the uniqueness of every person.

Find Your Way

Every individual responds to illness in his own way.

The Homeo-Path

When you feel sick, it is logical to want to take something or do something to normal again so that you can do the things that you need to do. But symptoms serve a purpose and are the body’s way of trying to re-establish balance either against stress or infection. That doesn’t seem particularly helpful when you’re feeling terrible and just want to get better, but removing the distress signal doesn’t take away the underlying distress. When you travel along the homeo-path the distress and the signal are equally important.

The First Step

The first step on the homeo-path begins with telling your health story, which is everything about you, according to you, the expert. Your physical symptoms and your emotional stresses are discussed, as well as your tendencies, personality traits and significant life events. Blood tests may be ordered and a physical examination may be done. The first consultation is an all-in-one mind-body appointment.

Homeopathy supports the body's efforts to sort itself out when it’s been tipped out of balance by a bump in the road like a stressful life event or an infection.  I use all the information of all the symptoms to guide the body back to health. This means gathering patterns of reactions to find a single remedy that fits your totality. Taking one remedy that fits all aspects of your health means that multiple remedies are not needed for different parts of the body that are out of balance. 

The homeo-path is about the long run with the destination being optimal health.

Classical Homeopathy

Classical homeopathy is the original, minimalistic way of homeopathic prescribing. It might be different to the kinds of homeopathy that you are aware of or have been exposed to. There are no gadgets or diets, intravenous drips or handful of pills to take at specific times. It is just the consultation, examination and remedy. Only one remedy is selected based on your mind-body symptoms. This allows a clearer understanding on how your vitality is responding to the remedy, before the next step along the road to health is taken. 

About Marilena

Studying homeopathy was a natural progression for me, as I was brought up on it. I finished my first degree in Classical Homoeopathy from London's Westminster University in 1999 and then did my Master's Degree at Exeter University. On returning to South Africa, I crossed over to the other side and completed a Degree in Drugs (called a Master of Science in Medicine: Pharmacotherapy). After a few more years of practising homeopathy, I completed another Master of Science Degree in Medicine-this time in Paediatric Neurodevelopment. 

My homeopathic prescribing is minimalist, as is the classical homeopathic way. Only one remedy is selected, which acts as a catalyst for unravelling the symptoms and bringing a person to their best state of health possible. This takes into account a person’s individual response to a disease, their genetics, what their stresses are and how they respond to them.
