Mel Owen-Browne - Homeopath

Registered Homeopath

I qualified from the London College of Classical Homeopathy in 1998 and then from the Dynamis School for Advanced Homeopathic Studies in 2000.  Prior to that, I completed a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology, Human Anatomy & Physiology.

I have been working as a clinical Homeopath in Southampton since 2003 and Neal’s Yard Remedies in Guildford since 2005.

I am now living with my partner and two children in Winchester and am very happy to be working as part of the team at Winchester Sports & Spine.

I am a registered and insured member of The Society of Homeopaths and a listed supervisor for students and graduates wanting to better their understanding of homeopathy.

Homeopathy is a natural, gentle and extremely effective way of treating the mind and body.  Remedies taken from natural sources are carefully selected for the individual to bring back a state of harmony and balance and remove unwanted symptoms of ill-health by stimulating the body to heal itself.  Homeopaths believe that a wide range of conditions can be treated using our techniques from anxiety and depression, to  headaches, back pain, arthritis, eczema  and more acute inflammatory states such as fevers, tonsillitis and other recurring infections. Of course if your condition is not deemed suitable for care with homeopathy then referral for a more appropriate treatment will be made.

People who often see themselves as ‘stuck in a rut’ ‘under-par’ ‘tired and no energy’ ‘a bit low’ ‘stressed’ often respond well to homeopathic treatment. The job of the Homeopath is to seek out the underlying cause of the problem in order to restore a state of health and wellbeing.

Homeopathy for pregnancy & childbirth

Pregnancy is one of the most wonderful natural states for a woman but can often be marred by uncomfortable symptoms such as sickness, reflux, indigestion, constipation, insomnia and pelvic pain.  Homeopaths believe that it is possible to alleviate some of these problems without need for conventional drugs. Homeopathy aims to assist in an easier natural birth and help the body to heal more quickly afterwards and also help emotional recovery, including bonding with your baby, re-balancing the hormones and helping with milk flow and other feeding problems such as mastitis.

Homeopathy for babies &children

Little people respond extremely well to homeopathic treatment as their bodies and minds are so pure and therefore simpler to treat. Remedies are offered for many early conditions such as colic, teething, reflux as well as other problems growing up including eczema & allergies, childhood illnesses, recurring ear & throat infections, behavioural issues and in later years glandular fever and malaise. Often, the best time to treat children is when they are well.  This is called constitutional treatment and is thought by homeopaths to boost the immune system for the coming winter months.  Our children can’t avoid exposure to viruses and bacteria but homeopaths believe that a good constitutional treatment may help to reduce a child’s susceptibility to illness, lowering their chances of becoming infected.

Homeopathy for women

Hormonal imbalance can be one of the biggest single causes of problems throughout a woman’s life, producing all sorts of unwanted symptoms such as mood swings, pre menstrual complaints, post natal depression & common symptoms of the menopause such as hot flushes, low libido and irritability.  Homeopaths consider that remedies, chosen carefully for the individual may help reduce these symptoms and allow you to live much more comfortably and bring back a state of calm and balance.

Homeopathy for stressful lives

Stress is one thing that many men and women complain of but often seem unable to do anything about.  Long term physical and emotional stress on any person will upset their system and eventually they will experience a range of unwanted recurring symptoms. We each have our weak points in the body and these become exposed with ongoing stress.  Some will develop rashes, others aches and pains, sinus problems, stomach ulcers, thyroid problems, throat infections, anger or anxiety.

Whatever it is that you experience, whether one symptom or many, homeopaths seek to restore balance and allow your mind and body to heal. Many people make significant life change through homeopathic treatment whereas others simply feel better.

I hope to see you or your children sometime soon.
