Mel McHugh RSHom
Approach
Whether you are new to Homeopathy or have experience with it, I am here to offer you a holistic approach to your health and wellbeing, working closely with you using the philosophy and principles that underpin Homeopathy. Each of us are beautifully unique and the homeopathic approach treats you as an individual with remedies acting as a stimulus to activate the body's natural healing abilities. As a classically trained Homeopath, treatment is based on supporting the totality of symptoms, including your mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health.
To learn more, why not take advantage of my FREE 30 minute introductory call to discuss your healthcare needs and explain about how I work. Following this call, if you decide you would like to work with me, I will send out enquiry forms and get you booked in for a full consultation.
You will be fully supported throughout your treatment as communication is a vital component to my approach as a holistic healthcare practitioner.
My Story
I first came to homeopathy over 25 years ago whilst seeking support for ongoing chronic inflammation (similar to Fibromyalgia) and debilitating period pains. I was having limited success through other medical channels and a family member suggested homeopathy to me, at which point I knew little about it. After a short period of time, following some amazing results, I realised this was the treatment for me. I went on to use homeopathy as my main medical model. It has supported me ever since, especially during pregnancy and childbirth, and became my healthcare choice for my children growing up.
After developing a passion for homeopathy, I attended an open day at a homeopathic college and my journey as a practitioner started from there. I attended The North West College of Homeopathy (NWCH) in Manchester and undertook four years of degree level training, which included having clients as case studies for two years under full supervision.
As part of my final year I completed two main projects, both of which were based on our chosen subject matter. For my Human Biology and Physiology project I chose to look at Endometriosis and how homeopathy can support sufferers. My dissertation was in the form of a research project which was entitled 'How Can Homeopathy Support The Mental Health of Children and Adolescents Following Trauma', a subject I am passionate about.
I graduated in July 2019 and became a fully registered and insured member of The Society of Homeopaths.
In September 2021, I rejoined the college community of NWCH as Pastoral Manager & Librarian for four years, during which time I became a Lecturer. I was later asked to become Department Lead for PPD (Personal & Professional Development Department), a year group tutor, and became a Director of the college Board in July 2025.
Supervision/mentoring is a large part of training at NWCH, and continues to be crucial once we are in practice. I offer Acute Case & Personal Supervision and enjoy supporting students and the wider homeopathic community.
