What is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a gentle, safe, and natural system of healing that aims to stimulate the body's own healing responses. In Homeopathy, a key premise is that every person has energy called a Vital Force or Self-Healing Response. When this energy is disturbed, health problems develop.

What are the physical, mental and emotional aspects of Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is based on the philosophy that the body, mind and emotions are not really separate and distinct, but are actually fully integrated. A homeopath seeks a remedy that fits all of physical and psychological symptoms. 

What are the three levels of Homeopathic therapy?

Level 1: First Aid
Homeopathy can be used in first aid to safely treat common ailments and occurrences, such as sprains and bruises, skin irritations, teething pain, etc.

Level 2: Homeopathy in Acute Conditions:
Acute health problems are temporary conditions, such as colds, flu, coughs, sprains, etc. A homeopathic remedy can be useful because it is safe, gentle and has no harmful side effects. Homeopathy can also be used to assist sensitive conditions such as pregnancy and very safe for infants and children.

Level 3: Constitutional Homeopathy
Constitutional homeopathy refers to taking care of a person as a whole, including past and present symptoms. Homeopathy can be extremely effective in chronic and long-term health problems.  Homeopathic remedy strengthens the body’s immune system and helps prevent future occurrences.

What is the relationship between symptoms and Homeopathy?

Symptoms are the language of a disease, the body’s attempt to balance itself.  Did you know that a fever is the body’s attempt to activate the immune system’s white blood cells and defend itself from infection? If a person is given a symptom-suppressing medication, fighting the fever too soon, they will be less able to fight the actual infection.

Homeopathy does not seek to remove or suppress symptoms. Its goal is to recognize and remove the underlying cause of these symptoms.

How can the correct Homeopathic remedy be found?

Finding the appropriate homeopathic remedy depends upon gaining a complete understanding of the whole person. This means that the homeopath must take note of the physical, mental and emotional levels of each person before deciding on a correct remedy.

Homeopathic remedies have been described as "designer medicines." While this might seem like a trendy view of homeopathy, it is true that remedies are specially "designed" for individuals based upon their unique, and sometimes complex, state of being. It is important to recognize that, in addition to the person’s physical symptoms, there are underlying psychological and emotional aspects as well.

The Homeopathic treatment

The goal of the homeopathic treatment is to encourage the body to return to a natural state of balance and health. Like the missing pieces of a puzzle, homeopathic remedies help "fill-in" the gaps in the body to stimulate a person’s own healing potential and energies.

Today there are a rapidly growing number of conventional medical doctors using homeopathic medicines. Moreover, in many European countries and in India there is a growing trend of medical doctors referring patients to homeopaths.

What is the patient's role?

Open Communication & Observation
While it is the homeopath’s job to elicit relevant information by asking probing questions, the patient can expect a higher chance of receiving an effective homeopathic remedy if he or she is open and truthful in describing their physical and psychological symptoms. It is also important to be observant of the changes taking place in your system.

What you will experience when you receive the correct remedy can include the disappearance of specific symptoms, more energy, stronger immune system functions, and a sense of increased well-being. Homeopathic treatments have rapid and far-reaching effects. Even if the changes require time to develop, they usually are long-lasting.
