Paula Dowson - Paula is a fully qualified and registered homeopath working in Crowborough and East Grinstead. Homeopathy is a natural, safe and gentle form of complementary medicine that aims to promote general health and wellbeing by reinforcing the body's natural healing capacity. It is a 'holistic' treatment, which means that it is a whole system of healthcare that not only alters the physical state but the emotional state too. Pregnancy is often the time when homeopathy is experienced for the first time as women look for something that is safe, gentle and non-toxic to alleviate pregnancy-related ailments. After experiencing the benefits of homeopathy during pregnancy and childbirth, many parents continue to use this wonderfully natural form of medicine for themselves and their children for many years - www.pauladowson.co.uk - 01892 665125 - paula.dowson@talktalk.net
