“Disease is not an entity, but a fluctuating condition of the patient’s body, a battle between the substance of the disease and the natural self-healing tendency of the body.” – Hippocrates 460-377 B.C.

What Is It?

Homeopathy is a natural system of medicine that uses highly diluted doses of substances to stimulate the body’s own healing mechanism to promote health.

The use of homeopathic medicines – popularly known as remedies – is based on the discovery that natural substances are capable of curing the same symptoms that they can cause. By studying the pattern of symptoms that develop when a healthy person tests or “proves” the remedy, homeopaths can determine which symptoms the remedy is capable of curing. This is called The Law of Similars or “like cures like.”

A simple example of this principle can be seen with the common onion. Slicing an onion can cause symptoms of burning and watery eyes, as well as sneezing, and a runny nose. Many hay fever sufferers with symptoms of burning, watery eyes, sneezing and runny nose have found dramatic relief after taking homeopathic Allium Cepa (the remedy made from red onion.) Thus the substance that can cause symptoms can, as a remedy, also cure them.
