homeopathy

Developed by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann over 200 years ago, homeopathy is a system for treating illness based on the Law of Similars. This Homeopathic principle is based on treating an illness with a substance that produces, in a healthy person, similar symptoms to those experienced by the sick person, employing minute doses of natural remedies that are created from herbal, mineral and animal substances. Homeopathy views symptoms as the body’s natural reaction in fighting the illness and, unlike conventional medicine, seeks to stimulate them rather than suppress them. Homeopathy is widely practiced throughout Europe.
