What Is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a two hundred year old specific, scientific system of health care originating from the idea that health can best be realized by focusing on the way that health is already manifesting rather than attempting to fight disease.

Homeopathy views disease as an expression of the body’s healing power. Symptoms represent not just a response, but the best response to a given stress, based on the organism’s present capabilities. Symptoms, however uncomfortable they may be, are an expression of the organism’s effort to heal itself.

Since symptoms are body’s best effort to heal, a curative treatment should stimulate the ongoing healing process. I makes no sense to suppress body’s efforts to heal be treating against symptoms. Symptoms benefit an organism by adjusting to the stresses impinging on it.

Homeopathy Enhances Health.

In homeopathy we start with the understanding that there are specific laws of cure which we can follow. We speak of the vital force which animates everything we call life and which includes no only the physical but emotional and mental as well. It is this vital force which is being strengthened by our homeopathic treatment.

Homeopathy's Popularity among the initiated

By the end of the twentieth century approximately 25% of practicing physicians in the United States were professed homeopaths. In the first half of this century due to complex social forces homeopathy has become largely unknown until the most modern renewed interests in natural medicine. Many well known people have been its ardent supporters, including Mark Twain, John D. Rockefeller, Mahatma Ghandi, the members of the British Royal Family and the Queen, who consults a homeopath as her personal physician.

In France over 6,000 physicians currently actively practice homeopathy and most of the pharmacies carry at least a few hundred remedies. Homeopathy is also popular and easily accessible in Germany, Switzerland and Italy. Greece houses one of the most prestigious homeopathic clinics in the world. In India there are over 70,000 practitioners of homeopathy. In Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina there are renowned homeopathic medical facilities.
