MORE and more local families are turning to alternative medicine to tackle particular health problems.
Homeopathy is a popular form of holistic medicine which can be safely used to treat health worries in all ages.
This includes hayfever, stress, eczema, arthritis, allergies, PMT, asthma, menopause, insomnia and irritable bowel syndrome.
Here in Bolton, 12 local homeopaths have come together for Homeopathy Awareness Week, which is on now until June 21.
They have produced a helpful leaflet, and explain how homeopathic remedies can safely be used alongside other medicines.
Free advice and information is available during this week: today at Boots in Shipgates, Bolton from 10am to 4pm; Boots at Middlebrook throughout the week from 11am to 2pm, and at Holland & Barrett in Newport Street next Thursday from 12 noon to 2pm.
