Homoeopathy Durban University of Technology

Overview

Homoeopathy uses medicines that stimulate the body's own immune- and defence systems to initiate the healing process. It is an approach that is widely recognised to be safe, and it has the potential to be very effective in preventing and treating various acute and chronic diseases. As a primary-contact practitioner, a homoeopath manages all aspects of patient healthcare, including diagnosis, treatment and management, as well as referral and communication with other healthcare professions and institutions.

Attendance at lectures and tutorials with corresponding laboratory and clinical work provide the foundation. In the final year of the BHSc: Homoeopathy as well as during the MHSc: Homoeopathy, emphasis is placed on the practical application of homoeopathic, herbal and naturopathic principles, including aspects such as preventative medicine, community health care, and nutrition. The student will be guided to consider the patient as a whole and relate all peculiarities ,reactions and modalities to the homoeopathic method of treatment. The academic offering at the Durban University of Technology is arguably the most extensive homoeopathic education
