Homeopathy
Homeopathy is a system of medicine which pursues a holistic approach, seeking to treat whole being by triggering the body’s natural ability to heal.
Its defining principle is based on the law of ‘like cures like’ in which a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can be used to treat a person suffering with similar symptoms.
Another chief principle of homeopathy is that it regards each human being as unique, and the expression of disease is also unique in each individual. It proposes that there is a specific medicine for the patient who is suffering from a disease, rather than a specific medicine for a specific disease.
