What is Homeopathy? Homoeopathy is a safe and effective system of medicine based on the principle of “like cures like”. This principle was first formulated by a German doctor, Samuel Hahnemann, in 1796. Hahnemann’s extensive research and clinical studies proved that diseases can be cured by small doses of substances that produce in a healthy person the same pathological effects that are symptomatic of the disease. The ingredients used to manufacture homeopathic medicines are mainly taken from plants, animals and minerals. Homeopathy is a holistic therapy that treats not just the symptoms but the person as a whole. For example, ten different people with the same cold or flu virus will express their symptoms in different ways. Their lifestyles will be different and stressors affecting them will be different. In addition, each individual has his or her unique way of approaching life and reacting to it, which the homeopath must also examine before deciding on the remedy that best suits an individual.
