I really don’t want to keep you on a hamster wheel of never-ending appointments, prescriptions and coming back for more!
Actually, homeopathy is a pretty terrible business model when your goal is to have clients who need you less and less, but…
The second prescription is one of the most important parts of classical homeopathy, but it doesn’t always mean prescribing another remedy.
A follow-up isn’t just another appointment to gather more symptoms and send you home with another bottle of remedies. It’s about understanding what’s changed, recognising emerging patterns and knowing when to act, repeat, change direction or simply observe.
Ideally, as you progress, your appointments become further apart. You begin recognising your own patterns, understanding your body and learning to support yourself.
“The art of prescribing lies not only in knowing when to give a remedy, but also in knowing when to wait.” Tyler James Kent
Once you gain confidence using homeopathy at home for everyday acute complaints, knowing when to seek professional help, and eventually you might only pop back in periodically for a tune-up every so often.
**The goal isn’t to keep you coming back. It’s to help you move forward.**
Sometimes we need to know when to step back and let things unfold. But before we get to that stage, your first follow-up after the initial consultation is an important part of the process. It’s where we continue putting the pieces of the puzzle together and work out what comes next.
*Homeopathy is complementary and doesn’t replace appropriate medical care.*
