About Jenny Livingstone M.A.  R.S.Hom. Registered Homeopath

I have been a homeopath for 10 years now and have found great joy in helping people on their health journey.  Patients have reported to me that they feel comfortable with my gentle approach and that I am a very good listener.

I was classically trained at the Edinburgh College of Homeopathy and after I qualified in 2002 I became fully registered with the Society of Homeopaths. I also spent a year training in contemporary homeopathy in the Lake District and a further two years with a specialist Homeopath in York. This extra training enabled me to  develop a unique skill and I enjoy taking a creative approach using the best of old and new homeopathic methods.

Before becoming a Homeopath I was a specialist teacher for children and adults with multiple disabilities. Latterly I taught children with autism. Soon after qualifying as a Homeopath I was given the opportunity to work for a charity in Kirkcaldy for children with ADHD . This project ran successfully for nearly 8 years and gave me valuable experience in giving homeopathy to children.

I am also a tutor for the Lakeland College of Homeopathy and New College of Homeopathy in Scotland and supervise student clinics, as well as running post graduate training courses. Recently I was privileged to spend nearly four years as a Homeopath on the Jan De Vries team in Edinburgh.
I have a special interest in women’s issues, men’s health, babies and children as well as stress relief, breathing and relaxation.

As well as practising homeopathy, I am also a qualified Iyengar yoga teacher with 30 years experience.  I like to offer one to one sessions which can combine homeopathy and/or yoga.
