What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a safe, gentle, and effective system of medicine that uses an individualized approach to trigger the body’s natural healing mechanisms. It treats the entire individual, not the just the symptoms of the disease. Using the symptoms as a guide it is able to treat the root cause of an illness to stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanism, returning it to a state of health. Homeopathy is truly holistic in that it treats the whole person – mentally, emotionally, and physically.
How does it work?
Homeopathy uses the ancient principle of “like cures like” to trigger the body’s own healing mechanism. Homeopathic remedies are made from plant, animal, and mineral sources that cause certain sets of symptoms when taken in toxic amounts. These same substances, when taken in highly diluted doses, then relieve similar symptoms by stimulating the body’s immune system. For example, chopping onions causes stinging, watery eyes and running nose in many people. Homeopathically prepared red onion (Allium Cepa) can relieve similar symptoms in people suffering from hay fever. By carefully matching the individual with a single remedy based on their symptoms, personality, and nature Homeopathy is able to provide long-lasting results and improved overall health and vitality.
