What is Homeopathy?
More than 200 years old and time tested, Homeopathy is a system of medicine which has proven safe and effective and delivers fast, verifiable results. Homeopathy is a natural, holistic and complete system of medical diagnosis and treatment, known to the ancient Greeks, and made popular in the late 1700’s by German physician, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843).
The word, “Homeopathy,” comes from the Greek word, “homois,” meaning like or similar and “pathos” meaning disease or suffering. Homeopathic remedies stimulate, strengthen and encourage the body’s own healing processes to fight illness and cure disease.
While many people confuse homeopathic products with “herbal,” “natural” or “holistic” products, Homeopathy is not necessarily any of these. Homeopathy is distinguished because its therapeutic effect is explained by the “Laws of Similars and Infinitesimals.”
The Laws of Similars and Infinitesimals
Dr. Hahnemann discovered that a toxic substance which induces specific symptoms in a healthy person could be used to cure a sick person with the same symptoms. This led to the “Law of Similars,” the basic principle of Homeopathy. Dr. Hahnemann determined that substances which, at full strength, were toxic and would cause specific unwanted reactions in a healthy person would, when extremely diluted, cure a patient experiencing those same symptoms. He discovered that highly diluted substances provided safe and fast results and promoted healing rather than harming. This was Dr. Hahnemann’s minimal dosage rule, called the Law of Infinitesimals.
Homeopathy in the United States
In the early 1800’s and continuing through the mid-20th century, many homeopathic medical schools, hospitals, pharmacies and clinics, such as Hahnemann Medical School and Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, existed throughout the United States.
The development of bio-pharmacology (drug therapy) in the first part of the 20th century effectively curtailed the spread of Homeopathy throughout our country, while it continued to be taught and practiced extensively throughout Europe and England. The later part of the 20th century saw the revival of Homeopathy in the USA, as adverse drug reactions and undesirable drug side effects became more prevalent. Many people have discovered that Homeopathy offers a kinder, gentler and more natural alternative to pharmaceuticals.
