Homeopathy

​

Homeopathy operates on the principle of "like cures like" and the concept of the body's innate healing ability. The fundamental idea is that a substance that can produce symptoms in a healthy person can be used in highly diluted form to treat similar symptoms in a sick person. This is based on the Law of Similars, a principle dating back to the time of Hippocrates but formalized by the German physician Samuel Hahnemann, who founded homeopathy in the late 18th century.

Homeopathic remedies are prepared through a process of serial dilution and succussion (vigorous shaking). The more a substance is diluted, the more potent it is believed to become. Homeopaths believe that the water retains a "memory" of the original substance even after dilution to the point where no molecules of the substance remain. This process is referred to as potentization.

When a homeopathic remedy is administered, it is thought to stimulate the body's vital force or energy, triggering a healing response. Homeopaths consider symptoms not as isolated manifestations of disease but as expressions of the body's efforts to restore balance and health. By matching the symptoms of the individual to the appropriate homeopathic remedy, homeopaths aim to support the body's natural healing process and promote overall well-being.

​

In essence, the principle of homeopathy rests on the idea of individualized treatment, minimal doses, and the body's inherent ability to heal itself. It's a system of medicine that approaches health and disease from a holistic perspective, considering not just the physical symptoms but also the mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of the individual.
