Kate Diamantopoulo, Managing Director of both companies, has 40 years experience as a health professional in both the orthodox and alternative fields of medicine.She is a registered Homeopath since 1987 with the Society of Homeopaths (SOH) UK, and with the Australian Register of Homeopaths (AROH) since 2002 and arriving in Australia.She also assesses trained Homeopaths wishing to enter the AROH,and represents West Australia on the National Council for the Australian Homeopathic Association (AHA).In West Australia she is Vice President of the AHA.Similar duties were carried out in the UK prior to coming out to Australia including serving as a Director on the Board of the Society of Homeopaths for 3 years,assessing trained Homeopaths wishing to enter the Register for the SOH,and teaching, examining,moderating as well as sitting on all the Academic Boards at the College of Homeopathy (COH) London for 17 years.She is an experienced Registered Nurse (RGN Guy's Hospital London), State Certified Midwife (SCM St Thomas' Hospital London)and Health Visitor (HV).

The prosecution has had its day and the defence is about to begin. Thursday, March 27th 2008 sees the re-opening of the UK General Medical Council hearing in which Drs Wakefield, Murch and Walker-Smith will present their evidence to the GMC panel.
To date, those responsible for the contrived allegations against Dr Wakefield and his ex colleagues have had free reign whilst the defendants have been silenced by the legal process. The children at the centre of one of the biggest cover-ups in the history of medicine have been hidden, their parents have been silenced and supporting professionals have had their careers threatened if they dare to speak out.
A decade ago, Françoise Joët, a French teacher of Spanish who ran ALIS (Association Liberté et Information Santé - Health Freedom and Information Association) and Dr. Xavier Uriate, a Spanish naturopath, created a group whose purpose was to do research on just this, i.e. what Joe Public felt he had experienced in the way of side effects from vaccinations. They contacted similar associations and individuals in various EU countries, put together a questionnaire which was distributed to vaccine damaged individuals through homeopaths and groups like JABS, VAN and The Informed Parent. The research was conducted over a number of years and in six different EU countries. The group met each year in July in France, over a weekend, and continued working on the project throughout the year. They eventually came up with the name European Forun for Vaccine Vigilance (EFVV), completed the research, analysed it and prepared a report (available on CD for £10 from Lesley King MARH) which was then submitted in six languages to the European Parliament.in late 2005. A press conference was held in Brussels to coincide with presentation of the report, but sadly, it was poorly attended.
Arnica Montana provides homeopathic expertise and products for Sonja Johnson competing at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games |
The Olympics are fast approaching and in order to promote interest in Homeopathy I recently exhibited in China in December. I also gave a workshop in Mandarin with the help of an interpreter.This was well received by the Chinese audience both business people as well as the general public with many questions asked.They were particulatly impressed with the idea that it was easy to self medicate with the aid of a Homeopathic kit.
Sonja Johnson a WA horse eventer, is a member of the Australian Equestrian team, and already preparing for the Beijing Olympics.
Arnica Montana also provides expertise and products to many athletes to assist in a speedy recovery from their injuries and keep their immune response strong and resilient.
It is also World Homeopathy Awareness Week in April and the theme this year is sport !

SONJA JOHNSON
Here is Sonja's quote regarding her experience of Homeopathy March 2008 in support of World Homeopathy Awareness Week.
"I was first introduced to the advantages of Homeopathy in life and particularly sport and sport horses when based in England in 1997.
We all want to keep ourselves and our equine partners in as good a shape as possible to perform the job at hand.
Non Homeopathic medicines have their place however with the drug testing of athletes being so stringent these days anything that can give you a therapeutic benefit while being within the rules is a huge bonus.
My Witch's kit (Helios kit for Accidents and Emergencies) as we affectionately call it in the family is always in the float and provides me with great amusement as I watch the skeptics become believers after they benefit from its use."
WORLD HOMEOPATHY AWARENESS WEEK
In Perth Western Australia the West Australian branch of the Australian Homeopathic Association are holding an Open afternoon on Sunday April 6th from 12-4pm at Owen's Homeopathics 443 Great Eastern Highway Redcliffe.

TESTIMONIAL: SUZETTE LYSTER WORLD POLOCTOSSE LADIESCHAMPION
WA
August 2007
To Whom It May Concern,
Kate Diamantopoulo has forthrightfully sponsored not only myself
personally but numerous teams of which I have managed to compete
in the sporting world of Polocrosse.
Over the last 4 years Arnica Montana has provided plentiful products
and services in maintaining my sisters, my team mates, myself and of
course my horses whilst playing the sport. for which I am very
grateful as I don’t think the level of polocrosse I have achieved
could
have been obtained without the generosity of Kate and Arnica
Montana.
Polocrosse is a rough sport, described as Rugby on horseback, so as
one can imagine the contact is extreme for both the rider and horses.
The injury to both horse and rider is common and I therefore
appreciate Kate and Arnica Montana’s full support throughout my
polocrosse career.
Just to name a few occasions, of where the support has been so
generous.
Arnica Montana sponsored
• Continuously for 4 years my 3 sisters and myself- through
out normal club competition
• Under 21 State Women’s team, comprising of 7 players.
• Open Mixed ( both men and women) State Team ,
comprising of 8 players
• Australian Team for the 2007 World Cup, comprising of 8
players, coaches and managers for 7 weeks training and
competition.
This sponsorship has provided the teams and individuals with
numerous products, making them aware of the Homeopathic products
of which help in injury and rapid recovery. The highly recommended
few I have utilized continually would have to be the Arnica Rub and
Bath Soak. These relieving myself from all strains, bruising and corks
that are common injury from this rough sport.
Over the last 6 months, I have become dependent on the Helios Accident and
Emergency Kit,
as the remedies have helped in the World Cup preparation and
competition as the stress, strain and tiresome body has needed
something else to see my fitness through. Because polocrosse is not a
professional sport, playing for Australia does not give me the privilege
of not having to work a full time job in and around the training and
fitness. So the remedies and kit have been the answer to managing it
all, under Kate’s guidance, it is truly appreciated.
The Australian Team also valued the products and support, quoting
Australia’s Assistant Coach , Mr Noel Challis on the products “I
was the
assistant coach for the Australian Polocrosse team that won the world
cup earlier this year. A big part of my job was the physical preparation
of our players. Suzette Lyster introduced me to Arnica Montana
products and I liked them so much I used them exclusively through
out the championships. Massage, bumps and dints responded
excellently to these products. Most importantly the players themselves
trusted the product as they responded to their use. There is no doubt
Arnica Monica products played a valuable role in Our Team winning the
WORLD CUP.”
If you require any more information, please don’t hesitate to contact
me,
Regards,
Suzette Lyster

To whom it may concern
Over the past 4 years Kate Diamantopoulo of Arnica Montana has provided me with unlimited access to her expertise and products to assist me as I represent Australia internationally in the equestrian sport of Eventing.
Equestrian is the only Olympic sport where men and women compete on an equal footing. It is also the only Olympic sport which involves a living partner other than a fellow human. Hence for a women to be at the top of the field they must keep their body in tip top form and also their equine partner. Kate with her advice and products has been most helpful in this.
Over the 4 years Kate has provided a CD on the remedies and how to use them. A most invaluable First Aid kit (Helios Accident and Emergency kit) full of remedies that I use on the horses and humans (and keep on having to get Kate to top up). A number of tailor made remedies for specific conditions such as injured knees, ankles etc. Kate also does the most wonderful soap and bath soak. It only has one problem - my mum and dad like it so much it keeps running out!
In this four year period I have competed for Australia at the following Eventing competitions:
World
Cup – Pau France 04 (In 04 I won both world cup qualifiers held in
Australia) and individual Adelaide CCI**** 05
Member winning team Trans Tasman Trophy 05
Werribee CCI*** (final selection trial for World Championships)
Member Bronze medal team World Championships 06 (this qualified Australia
for the Olympics)
1st individual Taupo New Zealand Championships 07
Member 2nd place Trans Tasman team 07
I have also competed in numerous other competitions and am once again leading
event rider in WA.
Kate has been a constant support in these endeavors. It is not possible to do it alone and as Kate’s products are all permitted substances under the rules of competition I will continue to use them with great confidence.
Yours
sincerely
Sonja Johnson

WA College of Homeopathy
To furthur and consolidate Kate's visions Arnica Montana has Inaugurated
The West Australian College of Homeopathy. The aim of the College is to spread the knowledge of Homeopathy to the community through grass roots. The College is running seminars in conjuntion with the Australian Red Cross - see Seminars
Childrens Special Needs Teaching Clinic
A new initiative from the WA College of Homeopathy is the introduction of a Children's Special Needs teaching Clinic. Education of the public and students of any discipline in medicine needs to contribute to the health of our children.
Today, especially in WA, too many children are disadvantaged on all levels. These children are our future generations and desperately need help. Although statutory organisations are doing their best, many children are on too much medication and are not responding well enough to treatment. Homeopathy has much to offer these children and their overstretched families. see Seminars for furthur information.

A Life Saved in the Air !
On a recent trip to the UK on Emirates flight EK 421 from Perth to Dubai on 16th September 2006, an announcement was made asking for a registered nurse or doctor to make themselves known to the chief steward. A strongly built white South African man had collapsed in the aisle and needed assistance.
He aready had an oxygen mask on, and a pulse monitor showed his pulse was 68 beats per minute. However he had been unconscious for 20 minutes and was not coming round. After gaining permission form his terrified wife and giving her Arnica and Aconite for the shock and trauma-Kate then gave her husband Arnica Carbo Veg and Camphor from her Helios (UK) Acccidents and Emergencies kit and Traveller's kit. The pillules were placed between the lower teeth and lower lip.
The patient moved spontaneously after the first dose and after the second (given a few minutes later) the man sat up, demanded to know what was going on, got up and sat back in his seat. Kate was asked for her contact details by the chief steward who was amazed by the passenger's swift recovery. In 8 years of being a chief steward for Emirates he had "never seen anything like it"In fact the crew was wondering what to do as there was no space anywhere on board to put the patient. Every seat was taken in First Class Business Class and Economy. A registered nurse who also came to assist and witnessed the recovery, was also astonished by what she saw. Both she and the chief steward took the opportunty to learn something about the healing power of Homeopathy from Kate.
You too can help in a life threatening situation if you attend a First Aid course with Arnica Montana-please see the Appointment and Seminars section of the website for current dates.

Really bad cracks and sores all over her hands. Especially from mixing horse feed and the horse reins irritate it.
My testimonial will be for the Sage cream. ‘I had tried everything to stop my hands from drying out and cracking, with in only a few days of Sage cream application and they were all fixed!'

Jane Cooper from the National Australian Polocrosse Team:
Janelle Cuthbertson, our West Australian Junior National Tennis Champion sustains injuries in competition but thanks to Homeopathic treatment and use of the Arnica range of topical products, makes a swift recovery and is successfully back in competition with a higher rating.She is now ranked 260 in World Junior Tennis
June 2006: Great news for Janelle as well! She sustained stress fractures in both feet earlier in the year after competing in a 3-week tour of New Zealand. She had reached the quarterfinals and won the last tournament there. March April and May she recuperated and continued to train, healing fast with Arnica and other remedies from her Arnica Montana Accidents and Emergencies First Aid Kit. In June 2006 she has been selected to represent Australia going to Darwin for training. She played 2 national events and was runner up in both singles and won 2 doubles. She is on her way to New Caledonia Fiji and New Zealand again, then back to Darwin for 2 internationals. Her current world ranking is 502. Well-done Janelle!
August 2006: Since competing in the above events Janelle is now 268 in the world rankings– she is also 8th in Australia, which is a fantastic achievement! Unfortunately she has sustained another stress fracture in her foot so will be taking some time out to heal and recuperate. As she is almost 16 she can now move up to the women’s events and has until she is 18 to do this. I am sure she will be just as successful as an older player with this level of achievement as a junior player. Constitutional Homeopathy alongside orthodox medical treatment will help her heal quickly and set her up for the future with no side effects, and she will be returning to competitive tennis stronger than ever.

As 2007 grew to a close, we at Bumi Sehat had much to be grateful for. This year Yayasan (foundation) Bumi Sehat (Healthy Mother Earth) was chosen THE #1 not-for-profit organization in Bali, OUT of over 700. The selection process was rigorous and all aspects of our projects, from patient care, to computer courses for youth, to recycling were analyzed, our administration was checked and rechecked to see if our licenses are complete and current, our financial books were reviewed and we were found to be corruption free. I must admit to being very, very proud of our staff both in Aceh and in Bali. Also, I feel full of gratitude for the donors, who make every aspect of our work possible.
