Babies and children
As homeopathic remedies are safe and gentle they can be used from birth. They can be used for addressing symptoms such as cradle cap, colic (along with baby massage), jaundice, feeding difficulties, birth trauma and repeated crying.

Children respond very well generally to treatment as their vitality is naturally high. As well as supporting their own immune systems to recover from childhood illnesses, parents often seek help for chronic conditions such as asthma and eczema. Homeopathy can gently support children through emotional issues manifesting in symptoms such as bedwetting, anxiety and phobias. This includes anxiety at transition times such as starting nursery, school, parental separation and examination stress. Homeopathy can also be used with anxiety and emotional distress experienced by children with behavioural problems and conditions including ADHD and autistic spectrum disorder.

Specialist interest
As a parent herself Bev has seen first-hand how effective homeopathy can be in promoting overall health and wellbeing in children. She is interested in working with children of all ages and particularly as early as possible. She draws upon her professional experience of working ante-natally and post-natally alongside midwives and health visitors in a family support role on the ‘Bump to Baby’ project and her experience and passion for baby massage. She uses homeopathy in a complementary role alongside the conventional treatment you are receiving. Parenthood can be a wonderful and fulfilling experience but it can also be overwhelming. Bev believes that this time is crucial for natural and holistic intervention that strengthens the parent-baby bond.
