By

Filling in the Gaps: A Homeopath's Tour of a Dental Technician Lab Visiting Mike the dental technician was like creeping into a busy cave with a background of noise and lights. There are the occasional grinding sounds, a compressor working and beautiful coloured beams coming from an array of complex digital equipment. It all cries out for a detailed explanation and Mike, who is at home here in his natural environment, is keen to talk. However, the first thing I see is not the powerful computers but it’s the table full of paint brushes and possibly antiquated … [Read more...] about Filling in the Gaps: A Homeopath’s Tour of a Dental Technician Lab

I've been wondering where the recent surge in homeopathy has come from, so I ask them about it.  Over and over, the answer goes something like this, "I tried it for my terrible headaches which had gone on for three years since the birth of my baby.

I could hardly believe it, after being to so many specialists and having CAT scans, x-rays and thyroid tests etc done."  No wonder there is a … [Read more...] about Homeopathy surge worldwide

Homeopathy, Saviour of Sleep! Who doesn’t like a good nights sleep? Wrapped up all nice and cosy, especially on a cold winter’s night; it makes one’s eyelids feel all heavy just thinking about a beautiful, soft pillow and deliciously warm covers.
