Why Homeopathy

The above question comes to our mind when we are trying to change from one change from one medical system to other. Every science has its positive aspects and its limitations too. Let's know what Homeopathy offers for the suffering humankind. It is based on the principle of “Similia similibus curenter” (i.e. like cures like). Homeopathy is a Holistic method of treatment where the whole body is taken into consideration & not just the diseased organ. As we already discussed in 1st paragraph, Homeopathy is a system of medicine where the remedies are prepared from the natural substances that are obtained from the Plant Kingdom, Mineral kingdom and Animal kingdom. Then the substances undergo a process of potentization and serial dilutions. The more the substance is diluted the more the power of that drug is increased. The power is known as the “Potency”. The homeopathic medicines do not have side effects when they are used prudently. They can even be used in treating mortally ill patients for the purpose of palliation without any side effects.

It helps the body to bring back the healthy state of its vital force from its diseased state. When the right homeopathic medicine is utilized it stimulates the body and produces an action, which is known as the primary action, and then the body reacts which is known as the secondary action. The Homeopathic medicines act at the level Psycho-neuro endocrinal axis. When children are put on homeopathy they lead a healthier life and even their inherited tendencies can be minimized. The homeopathic medicines can be used in a very simple way by putting drops on sweet globules .due to sweet taste of globules kids take the medicines without any protest. In chronic diseases after the remedy is used it acts at a very deep level and helps the individual to fight against the disease. We get remarkable results if the case is properly managed. In acute conditions after the medicine is utilized it restores the lost state of vital force in a rapid & gentle way. Homeopathic medicine can be very useful during epidemics. The remedy that is selected on the symptoms that are characteristic during the epidemic is known as the Genus Epidemics. In homeopathy prophylactic medicine can be given for preventing the disease when there is an outbreak of certain diseases. For e.g. If there are 2 children in a house and one is suffering from say Chicken pox in order to prevent the other child from getting the infection if prophylactic medicine is given he will not catch that disease. So Homeopathy can be used for a wide range of diseases with success if practiced in the right way. So let’s make a healthy pleasant living possible through Homeopathy.
