Homeopathy is a system of alternative medicine that was developed in the late 1800's by Samuel Hahnemann. It is the second largest system of medicine in the world and has been around for more than 200 years. The law of similars or "like cures like" is applied in homeopathy which means that any substance which can cause symptoms in a healthy individual can also cure those very symptoms in a sick patient when it is prescribed as a homeopathic remedy.
Classical Homeopathy does not treat a diagnosis, it treats a person as a whole. It focuses on the totality of the person’s physical, emotional, and mental symptoms and a remedy is selected with a symptom picture that matches the patient's symptom picture. When the correct remedy is prescribed, it will stimulate the body’s natural healing power, referred to in homeopathy as the "Vital Force" to heal all of the symptoms.
The remedies are non-toxic and it does not interact with other medicines. Correct homeopathic treatment has the ability to strengthen one’s constitution thus preventing more illnesses in the future. Homeopathic remedies are made from many sources including plants and minerals, it is extremely diluted and does not contain any toxic or harmful agents from the original substance. This makes it completely safe and gentle to use on anyone especially babies and children.
"Homeopathy cures a greater percentage of cases than any other method of treatment. Homeopathy is the latest and refined method of treating patients economically and non-violently."
-Mahatma Gandhi
