What is Homeopathy ?
Over 200 years ago, Dr Samuel Hahnemann developed Homeopathy in an effort to find a more effective way of treating his patients. It is an individualized, safe and effective form of medicine based on the Law of Similars. The Law of Similars indicates that a substance that can produce symptoms in a healthy person can be used to treat similar symptoms in a sick person. Homeopathy stimulates the body's own healing mechanism to restore health by matching a remedy symptom picture to the patient's symptom picture. Our approach to treatment includes looking at each person as an individual and places importance on symptoms from the mental, emotional and physical planes and how they are related to the person as a whole. Homeopathy can be used to treat a wide variety of ailments including infections, injuries, acute and chronic diseases as well as mental or emotional disorders. The World Health Organization indicates that Homeopathy is the second most widely used form of medicine in the world. It is extensively used throughout England, France, Germany and India. Homeopathy is quickly becoming accepted within North America as its benefits are understood.
