When I was training I was greatly inspired by Rajan Sankaran's approach to case-taking and analysis - popularly known as the "Sensation Method" (aka Bombay Method) - and I use the method in all of my cases.

I now offer a post-graduate study group aimed at 'Sensation Virgins', which is designed for absolute beginners and focuses on the theory behind the method. The group needs a minimum of 4 people to run, with a maximum of 8, and consists of 6 one-day sessions. The frequency of the sessions is flexible, depending on the requirements of each group, but is usually once a month. The cost is £200 per person (including lunch). Final year students are also welcome (20% discount). Please contact me for further details.

If you want to keep abreast of Sensation method seminars etc, or want to find a practitioner who uses it, Bombay-Method.co.uk is an excellent site to visit (if I say so myself!).

From my own experience, and that of several of my colleagues, the most effective way to attract new patients to your practice is through your own website. Most people are internet-savvy these days and surf the web for all manner of things. Having your own site gives you the opportunty to create that all-important visual first impression, as well as to list your practice details and whatever information about yourself as you may wish to divulge.

Website design costs can be horrifyingly high. There are a few companies who offer packages at a less scary price, provided you restrict the number of pages on your site and choose the design from a limited selection of pre-defined templates.

But I think that, since homeopathy is about individuality, your website should be individual too. Provided you don't want a site as complicated as Amazon's or a design like the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, my website design and development service starts at £120 (for a site like this one) up to £250 (for something like the Bombay-method site)*.
