Homeopathy Explained
The signs and symptoms that we get when we are unwell lets us know that our body is struggling to maintain its state of health.
What is homeopathy?
Homepathy is a style of natural medicine developed by the german Physician Dr Samuel Hahnemann over 200 yearsw ago.
It is based on a principle of "like treats like", where illnesses are treated with minute doses of a drug that produces symptoms of that disease in a healthy person.
A common example is, coffee may be used in a homeopathic medication in very small amounts to treat insomnia.
Some synthetic medications are used to relieve the "Symptoms" of an illness whereas homeopathic medications aim to work with your body to stimulate its own defence mechanisms, to address the disease itself and not just the symptoms.
How are Homeopathic Medications Made?
A repetitive procedure is used where one part of a substance is diluted in many parts of alcohol and water. This mixture is then shaken and once again, one part of this mixture is added to many parts of alcohol and water and then shaken. The process is repeated until we get the desired strength or "potency"
Do they Work?
A large amount of research has been carried out on homeopathic medicines. In 1991, a review of 105 clinical trials on these medicines was published in the British Medical Journal and 81 of these trials were successful.
Homeopathy can provide some of the most rapid results of all natural medications.
