What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy or Homoeopathy is a system of alternative medicine developed in 1796 by Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician. It is based on the idea that the body can naturally support its own healing process.
Homeopathic treatment follows the principle: “Like cures like” (Similia Similibus Curentur).
According to this concept, a substance that may cause symptoms in a healthy person is believed to help relieve similar symptoms in a sick person when used in very small amounts.
Homeopathic medicines are prepared from natural substances such as plants, minerals, and herbs. These remedies are repeatedly diluted and specially prepared before use.
Homeopathy focuses on individualized care and considers the patient’s physical symptoms, emotional condition, personality, lifestyle, and overall health.
