HOMOEOPATHY
It is recognised by the World Health Organisation as the second largest therapeutic system in use in the world
This method of treatment is based on the idea that by stimulating the immune system, it will encourage the body to cure itself.The practice of homeopathy uses its ingredients to stimulate the body’s natural abilityto cure itself
The three main principles of homeopathy are as follows-
“The law of similars, sometimes known as “like cures like-
Each individual case of a disease is most surely, radically, rapidly, and permanently annihilated and removed only by a medicine capable of producing (in the human system) the most similar and complete manner of totality of the symptoms
For example, red onion makes your eyes water. That’s why it’s used in homeopathic remedies for allergies
The law of infinitesimal dose states that a substance’s potency increases with increasing dilution
It is founded on the knowledge that the medicine’s stimulation originates from within the vitality rather than being forced from beyond. The healing process is only given enough to get started; from there, it continues on its own internal healing mission. While homeopathic medications administered in small dosages certainly stimulate the body’s vital reaction, they do not frequently result in the obscene side effects that are the downfall of conventional therapy
Individualisation
Homeopathy’s fundamental tenet is that each patient must receive a carefully individualized course of therapy. It depends on the individual’s specific symptoms, medical history, lifestyle history, and lastly, physical characteristics. Due to their individual needs and assessments of how their bodies are likely to behave, two persons receiving treatment for the same condition may receive completely different remedies from their homeopathic doctors
This type of therapy is unique in that it emphasizes the importance of a person’s personality and emotions. Be prepared for your homeopathic doctor to ask you detailed questions about your stress levels, character traits, interpersonal relationships, and family history
?Why is homeopathy so popular
Homeopathic treatment works with your body’s own healing powers to bring about health and well being
You are treated as an individual, not as a collection of disease labels
Homeopathy treats all your symptoms at all levels of your being – spiritual, emotional, mental and physical and finds the ‘like cures like’ match for them
Homeopathically prepared remedies, providing the minimum dose, are gentle, subtle and powerful. They are non-addictive, and not tested on animals. They are proved healthy human beings
Sources of Homeopathic Medicines
A large part of them are derived from flowers, roots and leaves of plants. Chemicals such as sulphuric acid and nitric acid also form the basis of some preparations. Many minerals and metals such as gold, silver, zinc, tin and iron are also used in the formulations.
