Homeopathy
Homeopathy is a system of medicine founded in the late 1700's by Samuel Hahnemann (a German physician), which works on principal that certain diseases can be cured by stimulating the body's own defenses against the illness; the opposite of allopathy.
Homeopathy is a form of alternative medicine in the field of medical therapy that uses natural substances to imitate illness and stimulate healing. Homeopathic remedies do not kill the bacteria, rather, they stimulates the immune system to do the healing. The good aspect of this alternative treatment is that-homeopathy is capable of curing a person entirely and there are no side-effects from this approach of treatment.
On the basis of the symptoms and the constitutional type of the patient, homeopath prescribes remedy for the cure of disease.A Homeopath assesses a person's character and temperament, their fears, food preferences and general factors such as weather, temperature, seasons and time of the day which may worsen or improve physical condition.After the analyzing strength and weaknesses of an individual (i.e. his vital force), homeopath prescribes the best remedy. The therapeutic medicine of homeopathy are made from plant, non-biological substances like salts, animal extracts like duck liver, substances of human origin called nosodes and some mineral extracts which are diluted in varying degrees in order to avoid unpleasant side effects. These extracts are diluted to such a degree that not one molecule of the original substance can be detected (after the 12c potency). The remedies range from toxic component such as snake venom and mercury to common food items such as oats and onions.
The system of homeopathic medicine is based on treating the individual with highly diluted substances given in mainly tablet form, which activates the body's natural system of healing. For instance, one homeopathic medicine which might be used in a person suffering from insomnia is 'coffea', a remedy made from coffee.
