Homeopathy

Homeopathy is a holistic medicine which uses specially prepared, highly diluted substances (given mainly in tablet form) with the aim of triggering the body’s own healing mechanisms.

Discovered by a German doctor Samuel Hahnemann over 200 years ago, homeopathy is based on the principle of “like treats like” – that is, a substance which can cause symptoms when taken in large doses, can be used in small amounts to treat similar symptoms. For example, drinking too much coffee can cause sleeplessness and agitation, so according to this principle, when made into a homeopathic medicine, it could be used to treat people suffering from sleeplessness and agitation.

Homeopaths ask about your health in some detail: how and when your symptoms started, what makes them better or worse. Also about your medical history, temperament and current life situation to build up an understanding of how your system is out of balance.

Homeopathy is the second largest system of medicine in the world. Over 200 million people use it worldwide. In India more than 100 million people depend solely on homeopathy for their healthcare. It is used by 30% of the population in Germany and one in 4 prescriptions in France are homeopathic. (Ref Science and Technology hearing Phil Willis).
