How Do I Become a Homeopath?

Homeopaths study extensively before going into practice and you should expect to spend either two years of full time intensive study or four to five years if you are studying alongside other time-consuming commitments.

At Inner Health we recommend that you take our HBC (Homeopathic Basic Course) and our HIC (Homeopathic Intermediate Course) before committing to a lengthier course. The HBC will train you to start using Homeopathy immediately in first aid situations and minor illnesses.

The HIC will give you an overview and a foretaste of the many different facets of a homeopathic education, so you have a sense of all that lies ahead and will be able to make a truly informed choice as to whether or not it will suit you.

The next stage is to join The Catalyst School of Homeopathy, a natural health college dedicated to interactive and experiential learning of the Sensation Method of Homeopathy. This relatively new method, developed by Dr. Rajan Sankaran's Bombay Group, is founded on solid classical homeopathic principles and incorporates major case taking refinements that allow homeopaths to prescribe with much greater accuracy and certainty.

Many Sensation Method cases go to what is known as "Source," where the patient will directly speak the language of the remedy they need. This is an extraordinary experience both for the homeopath and client. Once mastered, the Sensation Method can mean an 80% success rate in your prescriptions.

Unlike many holistic schools, The Catalyst School introduces students to clinical practice right from the beginning initially by watching Master homeopaths take and analyze cases, but later being guided to take cases themselves, under supervision.

In the clinic the many strands that students study independently (including case taking skills, case analysis, repertorisation, Material Medica studies, grounding philosophy, a deep appreciation of the Organon and case management) all come together synergistically, in a living, breathing experience of homeopathy.

From the very outset students have a clear understanding of the practical importance of all these aspects if they are to become great homeopaths. Students are assessed regularly and given clear, constructive feedback on their progress. Each student is mentored by an experienced homeopath, who actively encourages and supports them on their journey and helps them to prepare for their CCH certification from the Council of Homeopathic Certification.

Our mission is to train homeopaths to be expert clinicians and earn a good living as a whilst serving their community professionally and effectively. In fact The Catalyst School of Homeopathy will provide all the required homeopathic study hours for taking your Council for Homeopathic Certification (CHC), the highest accreditation in Homeopathy in the United States.*

Another important aspect for any school of healing is to support students in developing self awareness and an inner personal practice. At the Catalyst School students gain often transforming insights into how they operate in the world, and develop a strong sense of purpose, joy and service to others. The aim is to foster a sense of community, sharing every possible resource with students with the intention that over time they will outshine their teachers!

(*Please note you will need to study an additional 73 hours of  Medical Sciences - anatomy, physiology, pathology and CPR-- if you have not already taken similar courses before.)
