Homeopathy means the “study of similars” and is based on the principles of “like cures like”. Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician developed this method in the late 1800’s. Homeopathy is a natural approach that works without contraindications (interference with other medications you may be taking) or side effects. Your body has the natural ability to heal itself, homeopathic remedies stimulate the body’s curative responses through the administration of minute “homeopathic” dilutions of specific non-toxic remedies. These minute doses of natural substances that in a healthy person would produce symptoms of disease, where as in a sick person would heal. Describing symptoms in detail, with equal emphasis on both physical and psychological symptoms allows the practitioner to choose the best remedy.
