"Homeopathy, the energy medicine, is a branch of medical science based on the principle that disease can be cured by strengthening the body's defense mechanism with substances selected for their energy-giving properties."
George Vithoulkas, -- The Science of Homeopathy

What is homeopathy?

The word Homeopathy basically means similar or like suffering. It is based on the "Law of Similars" or "like cures like". For example if someone had a headache, they would be treated with the homeopathic form of a substance that in its raw form would cause a healthy person to get the same type of headache. By doing so it allows the body to work with and stimulate its own natural healing process without suppressing it. The concept of homeopathy has been around since 450 BC. It was not until the late 17th century that Dr. Samuel Hahnemann developed a medicinal system of homeopathy.

How does it work?
It uses tiny doses of natural substances from a plant, mineral, or animal source to stimulate a person's own ability to heal themselves within. Again it is based on the "Law of Similars" or "like cures like". A practitioner is looking at the body and person as a whole. All symptoms are seen as signs that the body is trying to heal itself and all ailments are seen as imbalances within the body. It is important the practitioner be aware of all signs and symptoms. The remedy is found and matched based upon that person's specific needs. There is not one remedy that cures all people having the same illness. Remedies are based upon one's own individuality of the illness at hand

Is it safe?
Homeopathic remedies have been proven for over two hundred years. They are still as safe and effective today as they where back then in treating ailments that are acute, chronic, physical and emotional. Homeopathic remedies are even safe for babies, children, pregnant and nursing women as well as animals. Homeopathic remedies can be used along with other forms of health therapies. Homeopathic remedies are in No way a substitute for medical care or medications please consult your physician before changing your current course of care.

"The highest ideal of therapy is to restore health rapidly, gently, permanently; to remove and destroy the whole disease in the shortest, surest, least harmful way, according to clearly comprehensible principles."
Samuel Hahnemann, Organon "The Father of Homeopathy" 1755-1843
