Homeopathy was introduced in 1796 by Samual Hahnemann, a German medical doctor and chemist, it is one of the two most widely used forms of medicine in the world today. It is a natural, scientific system of healing that gently and safely treats a wide variety of mental, emotional and physical ailments in adults, children and babies.
Homeopathy is a system of medicine based on the principle of “like cures like”. A substance that produces disease-like symptoms in healthy people will, in diluted form, help a sick person with similar symptoms to recover.
For example, onion juice will cause watering, irritated eyes and sneezing, but in a very diluted form (Allium cepa) it is useful in relieving symptoms of nose and eye irritation as in hay fever.
Homeopathy treats the person as a whole not just the symptoms. For example, ten people with eczema will have varying symptoms, their lifestyles and stressors affecting them will be different, the homeopath takes this into account before deciding on the remedy that suits each individual.
