Homeopathy is a gentle system of healing that uses highly diluted doses of substances to stimulate the body’s own healing mechanism. Founded by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, M.D. in the late 1700’s in Germany, homeopathy works from the inside out. Based on the Law of Similars, or “Like Cures Like,” remedies stimulate the vital force to find a new and healthier homeostasis (a dynamically healthier state) according to the basic nature of the individual.
I like to call homeopathy a healing modality. It is completely individualized . . . to the extent that two very similar people with similar conditions could be given very different remedies. Remedies are matched to individuals based on an understanding of their symptoms, reactions, history and so on. But eventually we seek to match remedies to the individual’s vital forces. We don’t consider the ‘disease’ to be the center of the problem; we consider the individual holistically to be the center of the solution to overcome various conditions and restore health and wellness.
Homeopathic medicines are ultra high dilution, gentle, safe, and mostly free from side effects. They improve your overall standard of health as well as address your complaints. Homeopathy heals holistically at the deepest levels by stimulating your own inner healing power to create harmonious and healthy balance.
Homeopathic remedies are dynamic medicines that affect the mind, energy and body. These remedies imitate the way in which Nature cures natural diseases with the aid of the human life force. All natural organisms demonstrate the power of action and reaction and have a certain degree of self healing power. The homoeopath seeks to match the symptoms of the patient with the most similar symptoms in the materia medica. The most similar remedy is then given in a proper small dose of the most effective degree of potency.
