Homeopathy

Homeopathy is a non toxic from of medicine that stimulates the body's own healing abilities to treat a wide range of symptoms. It was developed by Dr Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician. It is based on the principle that like cures like which, in simple terms, means any substance which can produce symptoms in a healthy person can cure similar symptoms in a person who is sick. A second principle is that the practitioner should give the least amount of medicine to evoke a healing response. Currently there are approximately 3,000 homeopathic remedies used to treat and also to prevent illness.
