What is homeopathy?

Homeopathy (=homoeopathy) is a branch of medicine that originated in Germany in 1794, which is based on the principle of The Law of Similars. In a way, it is an advanced form of vaccination; whereby a substance that is capable of producing a disease-like state is administered to the patient, but in a very minute dose, to cure a similar disease.

Homeopathy works much beyond vaccination. Here, the homeopathic dose administered is unbelievably minuscule, which renders if absolutely harmless yet very powerful.

Contrary to conventional medicine, the action of homeopathy is much safer, deeper acting, somewhat slower, and results much longer lasting by energizing the body's curative powers.

Homeopathy is amongst the youngest and latest medicines calling for more research and promotion. Homeopathic treatment has become increasingly popular over the last decades. 

How does it work?

There are theories on how exactly homeopathic medicine works. As supported in major clinical trials and in practice, it is believed to be working by stimulating the body's own healing mechanisms.

For example, in the case of diseases that are caused by infection, it seems to be working by stimulating the production of antibodies, defense blood cells, etc.

In cases of immune diseases, homeopathic medicines work by correcting the immune mechanism.

In case of painful conditions, by activating the body's anti-pain mechanisms.

Similarly, its action must be on the lines of being antispasmodic, anti-allergic, immuno-modulatory, anti-inflammatory, hormone stimulatory, anti-carcinogenic, etc.

Large-scale studies alone will allow a full exploration of this young science.

What can it do?

Homeopathy boasts of tremendous powers as a system of medicine. Especially in case of chronic, long-standing, and recurring diseases like allergies, bronchitis, Chron's diseases, …..Psoriasis, Rheumatism, Sinusitis, Trigeminal Neuralgia, Ulcerative Colitis, Vitiligo, etc, homeopathy offers results that can change the life of patients.

In the cases of allergic diseases like Asthma, urticaria, and the like, it can enhance the body's immune mechanism is such as the way that the body no more reacts in an abnormal way by producing constricted bronchial tubes, the abnormal release of histamine, spasm, inflammation, etc.

In cases of ulcerative diseases (like Ulcerative colitis), it leads the immune mechanism to enhance the ulcer healing mechanism.

This goes true for most chronic diseases.
