Homeopathy is a system for medicine which has a completely different approach to disease and remedies from that found in conventional or “allopathic” medicine. Homeopathy is practised both by lay people and qualified medical professionals: doctors, dentists, even veterinary surgeons use Homeopathy to varying degrees. Many thousands of people choose to use this approach for every-day family ailments.
In the more common allopathic approach, remedies are used that work against the disease and their symptoms - the “anti” drugs. The homoeopath, by contrast, views the symptoms as a direct manifestation of the body’s attempt to heal itself. Consequently a substance is given capable of producing similar symptoms if given to a well person.
Homeopathy does not treat diseases but, rather, individuals with specific symptom.
How does it work?
Homeopathy attempts to stimulate the body’s own natural healing capacity. Homeopathic remedies act as a trigger for the body’s own healing forces and remedies are prescribed on a very individual basis. The homoeopath takes note of physical, mental and emotional symptoms, together with full details of the “modalities” - modalities being all the factors that make the ill person feel better or worse. From the extensive picture the homoeopath then selects a remedy, which both matches the picture and, which would, if given to a well person, create the same symptom picture.
