ABOUT
HOMEOPATHY
Homeopathy is a holistic form of complementary medicine.
Homeopathy is safe and uses natural sources, which have
no side effects.
The theory is that during the production of a homeopathic
medicine (remedy) the dilution and agitation process
cause an interaction between the original material and the
water and alcohol it is mixed with. This creates tiny new
structures, which are the active ingredient and remain present
even when the sample has been diluted many, many times.
Homeopathy is based on the principle of ‘like with
like’ that is a substance which causes symptoms when
taken in large doses can be used in small amounts to treat
those symptoms.
A German doctor Samuel Hahnemann first discovered this
basic principle of Homeopathy over 200 years ago. Hahnemann
went on to document his experiments on himself after being
disillusioned of the harsh medical practices of the day.
His work and texts are the foundation of homeopathy today.
