Homeopathy is a medical science introduced by Dr Samuel Hahnemann, MD, a German scientist in 1794. It is the second most practiced System of Medicine in the world today. Many people confuse homoeopathic medicine with herbal remedies or alternative or natural medicine. But let’s get it clear Homeopathy is not only herbal medicine but much more.

Jonas Salk, with both eloquence and simplicity, once stated that there are two primary approaches to treating ill people. He said that “there are therapeutic techniques that directly impact specific symptoms, and there are methods that stimulate the body’s own immune and defense system. Homeopathy takes place in the latter description here.”

Homeopathy stands on the fundamental principles for treating diseases at the root level. It addresses the multiple causative factors such as genetic, immunological, metabolic, hormonal, and emotional and the like. As a result, the diseases are treated in totality and not just in parts or separate from the ‘whole’ of the individual patient. In that sense, homeopathic treatment believes in the ‘holistic’ approach of treatment.

Interestingly, the medicines in homeopathy are sourced from herbs, minerals, chemicals, animal products, organisms, etc. Very important, it is backed by a method of medicine preparation, scientific principles and deep philosophy. Homeopathy uses potentized or attenuated medicine in the form of nanoparticles, which have been found to be effective in treating the diseases at deeper level.

Homeopathic medicines are absolutely safe and free from adverse effects on body. They are safe for even new-born babies as well as in pregnant or lactating females, and for elderly patients.
