13 Benefits of Homeopathy

13 Benefits of Homeopathy

What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a system of natural medicine developed by Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician in the early 1800s.  He discovered that the same substance that could cause a reaction in a healthy person could also be a remedy for someone suffering from similar symptoms.

That is the basic premise of homeopathy: “like cures like.”  It may seem hard to believe, yet the approach to vaccination used in Western medicine is a similar one, albeit one that is fraught with potential side effects, unlike homeopathy which is completely safe.

Homeopathy is a natural, holistic, approach to healing a person, using minute doses of specific remedies, rather than simply eliminating a particular symptom using a Band-Aid approach.  Unlike many health models, the model for homeopathy is one of individualization.  No two people are alike, so just because two people suffer from headaches, the homeopathic remedies provided for them may be completely different.

What a load of made up rubbish!
Why don't all the paddlers of this take homoeopathic plutonium. That would be rather interesting!

Ahh, Michelle! What a wonderfully written article! So to the point. People from the previous millennium and those who do not wish facts to interfere with their opinion will always attack Homeopathy. Regrettably that does include a number of otherwise very good "traditional" or allopathic Doctors - but there is a trend reversal and Homeopathy is now seen by many allopathic practitioners as what it is - a true complementary branch of alternative medicine. The fact that science cannot verify the basis of Homeopathy says more about the scientific model than it does about Homeopathy - which, as one enlightened commentator put it to me - is a form of energy healing. If anything, I am a “Homeopathy Disciple” – as is my family, after many, many years of practical health benefits derived on so many levels.
