Homeopathy is the art and the science of healing the sick by using substances capable of causing the same symptoms, syndromes and conditions when administered to healthy people.
Any substance may be considered a homeopathic medicine if it has known "homeopathic provings" and/or known effects which mimic the symptoms, syndromes or conditions which it is administered to treat. Central to all homeopathy is the determination of the effect of substances on healthy volunteers and the use of the developed "drug picture" by the consumer and/or trained health care practitioners according to the homeopathic principle of similia similibus curentur - Let likes be cured by Likes.
Historically, homeopathy has been practiced by medical doctors, and has been used for self-care by the general public. The issuance of The Homeopathic Domestic Physician by Constantine Hering, M.D., (1835) opened this health care modality to the public. Homeopathy is an ideal therapeutic medium for self-medication of symptoms usually associated with self-limiting conditions since the selection of the proper remedy for the case is dependent on the symptoms that the body exhibits in its reaction to the illness. In the use of homeopathy for conditions which are other than self-limiting, the consumer is advised to use the services of a health care provider.
In homeopathy, special attention is given to the relationship of homeopathic remedies.
There are remedies that complement one another, some that follow well, and others that antidote each other. Certain products can cause homeopathy not to work such as spicy foods, raw garlic, onions, mint lozenges, spearmint gum, camphor oil, coffee, tea, alcohol, illegal drugs, tobacco, mint toothpaste and mouthwashes.
Homeopathic medicines have been extensively studied over the years for their effectiveness for a variety of diseases. Clinical studies using internationally accepted protocols have been conducted to prove the scientific basis of homeopathy.
Homeopaths regard an individual's physical, emotional and mental well-being as intimately connected, and treat an illness holistically. A remedy is prescribed on basis of individual's health factors and not for the symptom of the disease.
Homeopathy influences the body's energy rather than its chemical balance. Homeopathic medicines do not cause side effects and are intrinsically safe, since there is no chemical trace to accumulate in the tissues.
