Homeopathy uses all natural ingredients to stimulate and assist the body’s natural ability to heal. For over 200 years, physicians and homeopathic specialists have used homeopathic treatments. Homeopathy is a “holistic” remedy, which seeks to treats the whole person. Homeopathy takes a different approach from conventional medicine in diagnosing, classifying, and treating medical problems. The term homeopathy comes from the Greek words homeo, meaning similar, and pathos, meaning suffering or disease. In classical homeopathic treatment, we strive to include all aspects of the patients health into their prescribed remedy.
Key concepts of homeopathy include:
- Homeopathic practitioners select remedies according to a total picture of the patient, including not only symptoms but lifestyle, emotional and mental states, and other factors.
- Homeopathy seeks to stimulate the body’s defense mechanisms and processes so as to prevent or treat illness.
- Treatment in homeopathy is very personal (tailored to each person).
- Homeopathy believes the body can heal itself, however our lifestyles and negative habits prevents our bodies from doing so.
How does the treatment work?
Typically, in homeopathy, patients have a lengthy first visit, during which the provider takes an in-depth assessment of the patient. This is used to guide the selection of one or more homeopathic remedies. During follow up visits, patients report how they are responding to the remedy or remedies, which help the practitioner, make decisions about further treatment. In classical homeopathy, only one remedy will be given at any time.
