Homeopath Consultation
Before trying these innovative technology lead treatments, it is strongly recommended that you book in for an Organic Pharmacy Homeopath Consultation, that fine tunes your health and wellness instrument.
The consultation consists of an in-depth conversation with Felicity Gray about your physical and mental health and your lifestyle in-depth, from how your body reacts to the world, to what stresses your body physically and emotionally. What are your health discomforts, aches and pains.
This assessment leads to your bespoke homeopathic prescription that matches your symptoms and needs.
On a true personal note, seeing Felicity was like seeing a warm, kind-hearted and understanding therapist. I did not expect such an in depth consultation, which went way beyond my current physical and emotion misalignments.

Felicity came with a very strong holistic and therapeutic angle, which covered childhood, PTSD’s, the relationships in my life, as well as all of my physical, emotional and general health and wellness status and issues. Felicity really took her time and it felt like I was in the cubicle for hours.
I was then given my prescription and walked out the door with a peace of mind and a to do list/take-aways from our session, that consisted of various things I must do, read and take.
I genuinely felt very uplifted and in control of my health and wellness following my consultation, with a clear idea of what I need and not need do, to make sure that my physical and emotion being is at my most optimal.
