Second year
In your second year you'll start to study integrated homeopathy which is our specialist approach to the subject. This includes new methodologies, clinical skills and the specialised treatment of specific diseases.
These areas are expanded and consolidated each year leading to an in-depth understanding of both classical and practical homeopathy.
The syllabus is divided into various modules such as philosophy, materia medica, methodologies, medical sciences, case taking and practitioner development.
You'll study in a small class group which creates the optimum learning atmosphere and offers greater dynamics and rapport. It also means we can offer you a more personal learning style.
In this year you'll also start your clinical training, observing patients and starting case analysis, at our student clinic, based at Ainsworth's Pharmacy.
