Homeopathy

What is Homeopathy?
Samuel Hahnemann, MD, Organon of Medicine, in 1810 discovered this new approach to treating illness and disease.

Homeopathy is a natural, safe and effective form of complementary medicine. The classical method of homeopathy would prescribe an individualized treatment to fit the specific situation of a “dis-eased” person. Basically, the homeopath will treat considering the condition of the person as a whole: emotional, mental and physical symptoms as well as environmental factors are considered. The homeopath uses the body’s own power of self-regulation and self-healing, by enhancing the body’s ability to fight disease rather than overriding it.

An example of how homeopathy cures
One of the homeopathic treatments for insomnia is “Coffea Cruda” given in a minute dose. If given in large doses to a healthy person it causes sleeplessness, thus, a sleepless person is cured by a substance that causes sleeplessness. – Law of similar – whereas, conventional medicine – Law of opposite – uses drugs to bring artificial sleep which can cause side effects or addiction.

Homeopathic medicines, more commonly called “remedies”, are drawn from plant, mineral, and animal kingdoms. One of the reasons they are considered safe is because very small doses of a given substance are used. They are made by a pharmacological process called potentization which dilutes the substance by adding water and vigorously shaking. This process allows the substance's energy to be enhanced while removing its aggressive raw effects.

Who uses Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is gentle enough to be used by babies, pregnant women, the elderly and animals (also plants!). The use of homeopathy is advocated by the World Health Organization. In fact, homeopathy is commonplace in many countries around the world. There are homeopathic hospitals in England, Scotland, India, and Russia to name just a few. In the United Kingdom, for example, doctors refer 42% of their patients to homeopaths, and homeopathic training is the most popular post-graduate training program.

10 Good reasons to use Homeopathy

1. No harmful side effects
   The process of potentization refines the remedies to remove any toxic side-effects.
2. Gentle
   Homeopathy works by stimulating the body’s own defenses. Although gentle, the results may be powerful and long lasting.
3. Easy to take
   Homeopathic remedies are given either as small globule which dissolves in the mouth or in liquid form.
4. Inexpensive
   Homeopathic remedies cost surprisingly less than conventional medications. Moreover, remedies are intended to boost the immune system, making you stronger and less likely to get sick.
5. Not tested on animals
   Humans respond differently to medication than animals do. All homeopathic remedies are tested on healthy humans.
6. Preventative treatment
   By boosting the body’s immune system homeopathy can help improve a person’s resistance to illness and infections.
7. Patient involvement
   The homeopath will ask many questions, not only about current symptoms, but also about your general health and lifestyle as well as your and your family's health history.
8. Holistic
   Homeopathy takes into account the whole person. Often only one remedy may address a host of complaints.
9. Invaluable for first aid
   Homeopathic remedies can be safely used in the home or workplace to treat simple problems – such as bruises, minor burns, sprains, insect bites and gastric upsets.
10. A medicine rooted in the past and moving into the future
    Homeopaths still successfully use the same remedies they were using 200 years ago, while continually discovering new ones. Today they work with over 6000 remedies. Scientists are only now discovering breakthroughs in quantum physics that help develop a deeper understanding of homeopathy.
