After working on the World Prescription Essay for some time I was pleased to hear that the Federation of Holistic Therapists have published the essay as part of the Reading Room members website facility and included an introduction in the latest International Therapist Magazine.
Hope you enjoy it too.
One thing I love about being a member of a wider complementary health organisation such as the Federation of Holistic Therapists, is the wide scope of articles, CPD opportunities and information available to a therapist, like myself who practices within a ‘naturopathic’ approach within Homeopathy and Nutritional Advice.
This article is from the FHT members magazine, International Therapist ( Issue 101, July 2012.) and is a great checklist for those basic nutritional facts for both patient and nutrition professionals.
Have a read and enjoy!

A lot of people ask me about Homeopathy before booking a consultation and hopefully this short video presentation will explain the basics.
For further information on the philosophy behind the practice then please refer to other posts such as ‘may the force be with you’ on this blog.
I am delighted to announce that I will now be joining the Broadwater Osteopathic Practice (BOP) in Worthing, West Sussex as the resident Homeopath. This is a great move for me and my patients, as the practice’s ethos of an holistic approach to all patient’s care means that key therapies for health and wellbeing are available as part of a larger professional multi-disciplinary team.
Visit the BOP website here and look out for the up and coming launch of Homeopathy on their blog!

For the past few months I have been making a decision about which professional organisation to join as a Registered Homeopath. I didn’t want to join the usual ones, not that I have anything against them but with an interest in the naturopathic approach to complementary medicine, I have been searching for a more holistic and wider ranging organisation. However, one criteria was a non-negotiable. That was that the register had to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
And here it is. My new professional body press release.
Independent quality mark for complementary therapist
Patients, service users and the public have the option to choose a complementary healthcare therapist belonging to a register vetted and approved by the Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care.
The Federation of Holistic Therapists’ voluntary register has been accredited under a scheme set up by the Department of Health and administered by an independent body, accountable to Parliament.
Complementary therapists on the FHT Complementary Healthcare Therapist Register will be able to display the Accredited Register quality mark (logo), a sign that they belong to a register that meets the Professional Standards Authority’s robust standards.
Harry Cayton, Chief Executive of the Professional Standards Authority, said: ‘We are very pleased to have accredited the FHT’s register of complementary healthcare therapists. Bringing complementary healthcare therapists into a broad framework of assurance is good for patients, service users and the public and is the best way to promote quality. The programmee offers enhanced consumer protection to anyone looking for health and social care services, and gives practitioners the opportunity to demonstrate their commitment.’
David Feakes, is a complementary healthcare therapist in Worthing and on the FHT’s accredited voluntary register. ‘I am very proud to be listed on the FHT’s accredited register. It demonstrates that the FHT meets the demanding standards of the Professional Standards Authority and offers reassurance to those seeking help and support from a complementary healthcare therapist, alongside their conventional care.’

It is the time of year when those people susceptible to Hayfever begin to feel their nose itching and can experience the annoying morning and evening sneezing. You have guessed it, the pollen is beginning to rise and fall as we enter spring and with summer just around the corner, there is no better time than to consult your Homeopath, who may be able to help.
