Frequently Asked Questions
Our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section addresses common enquiries to provide quick, clear answers. From services offered to general guidance, we make it easy to find the information you need.
Can I speak to a Homeopath right now?
Yes! Our Homeopaths are online 24 hours a day, every day of the year, so you can start a chat whenever you need to, including evenings, nights and weekends when your own Homeopath or GP surgery is closed. Just press the button to be connected with our duty Homeopath, and if you would like to go further they will take you into a private Zoom Consultation. Feeling rough at 2am? Someone is awake and ready to help.
What is the difference between a quick Consultation and a full Consultation?
A quick Consultation is for an Acute, one-off complaint, the kind of thing that flares up suddenly like a cough, a cold or a sore throat. You speak to our duty Homeopath for around 20 minutes and get your Remedy recommendation by email afterwards. It costs £42 (roughly $55 or €50).
A full Consultation is for something ongoing that needs deeper support, where your Homeopath looks at your health as a whole, and this costs £130. We also offer a 10 Day Virus Support Package at £115 and Family Packages at £220 for when the whole household goes down. If you are not sure which you need, just start a chat and we will point you the right way.
Is Homeopathy safe, and can I take it alongside my usual medicines?
Homeopathic Remedies are gentle and are widely used by adults, children and babies. They are not known to interfere with conventional prescription medicines, and Homeopathy is meant to work alongside your usual medical care, not replace it. Please keep taking anything your doctor has prescribed, and let your Homeopath know what you are already taking so they can advise you properly. If your symptoms are severe, keep getting worse, or will not shift, please see your GP or seek medical advice.
Can Homeopathy help my baby or child?
Lots of parents turn to Homeopathy for their little ones, and our Homeopaths are used to working with the whole family, from babies and toddlers upwards. Rather than looking at the name of an illness, your Homeopath looks at your individual child, their symptoms, their mood, whether they are hot or chilly and how they are responding, and considers a Remedy to match.
Homeopathy does not replace medical care, so if your child is very young or seems really unwell, please get them seen. A fever in a baby under three months always needs a doctor.
Are your Homeopaths qualified?
Yes. Every Homeopath on the Swift platform is a fully qualified, registered practitioner, so when you press the button you are talking to a real, expert Homeopath, not filling in a form and waiting for a reply. Between them our team speaks more than 20 languages, so wherever you are and whatever your first language, you can find someone who understands you.
Can I use Swift if I live outside the UK?
Yes. Our online Clinic is not just for the UK. Because everything happens over live chat and Zoom, you can speak to one of our Homeopaths wherever you are in the world, and we take payment in pounds, dollars or euros. Your Homeopath will also point you to where you can get your Remedies locally, based on your country.

What is an Acute Condition?

Do I need to have remedies at home??
It would be helpful to have remedies at home, so that we can start your healing immediately, however, our Homeopaths will advise you of where to obtain remedies based on your location.
What if I have my own homeopath?
That’s absolutely fine. We provide the Number 1 ‘Out of Hours’ service for homeopaths to recommend to their clients so you are in safe hands. We request that you keep your Homeopath informed of any Remedy Recommendations made by us.
Does the fee include the remedies?
We don’t include the cost of remedies. You will need to source them from your nearest stockist or Pharmacy.
How do I book a full consultation?
If your condition is ongoing it will require further support. There are 2 ways to book a full consultation. Firstly, you can book with the duty Homeopath who helped with your Quick consultation. Secondly you can choose a Homeopath from our Clinic Team page and book directly through their website.
