What is Homoeopathy
The natural medicine that I use is mainly Homoeopathy. A system of medicine in which ailments are treated by minute doses of natural substances that in larger amounts would produce symptoms of the ailment. This is a medical science developed by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), a German physician. It is based on the principle that “like cures like”. In simple words, it means that any substance, which can produce symptoms in a healthy person, can cure similar symptoms in a person who is sick. The same principle as Immunisation.
This principle was recognised by both Hippocrates and Paracelsus but was only developed as a practical method of healing by Dr Samuel Hahnemann who published his Homoeopathic Materia Medica in 1811.
Hahnemann first noticed this principle in action in observing the effect of Peruvian bark (Cinchona bark, contains quinine along with other alkaloids), the standard treatment for malaria at the time; it produced ‘malarial’ type fevers when he ingested it.
It is a way of healing that is based on activating the human body’s own curative powers using medicaments extracted from the animal, mineral and herbal kingdoms. The principle they embrace is deep in nature, working with the body’s vital forces the spark of life. It does not use agents which destroy, inhibit or substitute for the natural forces.
Why Homoeopathy?
Homoeopathy has stood the test of over 200 years practice through-out the world.
There are six homoeopathic hospitals in Britain and the London Homoeopathic Hospital is under Royal Patronage. Homoeopathy is very popular in Europe, France, India and Israel, but is not widely used in pharmacy in Australia.
The remedies are simple and safe, no massive doses with problems of side effects. They are non addictive. There are no hazards for children. Even if an over-dose is taken they are not harmful.
What sort of Conditions can Homoeopathy treat?
It is not possible to state here the full range of health conditions which will respond favourably to homoeopathy. No two persons have identical bodies and minds, and though homoeopathy takes this into account professional advice is needed to ascertain the applicable remedy.
Some of the conditions which respond to homoeopathy are:
Allergies, arthritis, sinus, circulatory conditions, e.g. haemorrhoids and varicose veins, coughs, colds, bruising, burns, cuts, sprains, boils, festering wounds, insect bites, poor appetite, indigestion, reflux, GAUD, menopausal problems, dizziness, rheumatism, nappy rash, sunburn, cramps, sciatica, neuralgia.
