About Homeopathy
Homeopathy is the second most widely used system of medicine in the world according to WHO. This system of medicine has been used widely for more than 200 years.
According to Dr Samuel Hahnemann (The Father of Homeopathy), disease is caused due to the primary derangement of whole mind and body but not only the affection of single parts.
Homeopathy is a system which is based on ‘Law of Similar’. The basis of homeopathic prescription is the totality of the symptoms which is nothing but individualizing a patient suffering from a particular disease but presenting with the uncommon symptom of the disease which represents the functional disorder- the abnormal process of the disease itself, not its ultimate or end products. Homeopathic medicines are prescribed by symptoms rather than conditions, as everyone’s case of particular illness can manifest in different way.
As the saying goes “Prevention is better than cure” - Homeopathic medicines could be used as immune boosters. The primary prevention is a 'Holistic Approach’. It concerns an individual’s attitude towards life, health and the initiative he takes. It utilizes knowledge of the pre-pathogenetic phase of the disease. Indeed, it is possible to prevent this from happening by taking care of one’s health through proper diet, early detection and treatment with indicated deep acting homeopathic remedy. At the deepest level, Homeopathy is preventive in intent. Homeopathic remedies act at mental and emotional levels and keeps the individual healthy through greater responsiveness and readiness so that disease is kept away or prevented from recurring.
The main aim Homeopathic of medicines are to promote health, to preserve health, to restore health when it is impaired and to minimize suffering and distress. Successful prevention depends upon the knowledge of causation, dynamics of transmission, identification of risk factors and risk groups, availability of prophylactic or early detection and treatment measures to appropriate a person or a group and continuous evaluation of and development of procedures applied. Utmost importance is given to a patient’s striking, singular, uncommon and rare signs and symptoms. Hence, higher the correspondence of the remedy symptoms to the patient’s characteristic symptoms, higher the successful rate in treatment.
Homeopathy is extremely safe system of medicine. It acts via Holistic approach, without harming the normal physiology of the body.
