HOMOEOPATHY |
 |
Dissatisfied with the common medical practices of the time, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann sought to create a system of gender healing. He began creating a new system using plants, minerals and animal substances, combining them into energetic compounds. With these substances, he stimulated and encouraged the body’s natural healing forces of recovery.
The word ‘Homoeopathy’ is derived from two Greek words, homoeo meaning similar, and pathos, meaning suffering. Homoeopathy simply means treating diseases with remedies, prescribed in minute does, which produce symptoms similar to the disease when taken by healthy people. It is based on the natural law of healing – “Similia Similibus Curantur” which means “like is cured by like”. For example, the effects of peeling an onion are very similar to the symptoms of acute cold. The remedy prepared from the red onion, Allium cepa, is used to treat that type of cold.
Conventional medicine believes that symptoms are caused by the illness of the body, whereas homeopathy views the symptoms as the body’s natural reaction to fighting illness, and seeks to stimulate the symptoms rather than suppress them. Homeopathy is concerned with the treatment of the whole person, as an individual, rather than the disease alone. A homoeopathy does not concentrate his therapy on, say arthritis or bronchitis or cancer. Rather, he treats the mental, emotional and physical aspects of the patient. The physicians’ interest is not only to alleviate the patient’s present symptoms but also his long-term well being.
Homeopathic medicines contain extremely small quantities of substances called potencies, prepared in a special way by diluting, shaking and pounding the mixture. These high dilutions not only enhance their curative properties, but also avoid undesirable side effects. Homeopathy has been serving humanity for over two centuries and has emerged as a time-tested therapy.
Homoeopathy came to India in 1839 when Dr. John Martin Honigberger was called to treat Maharaja Ranjit Singh, the ruler of Punjab, for paralysis of vocal cords and oedema. The Maharaja was relieved of his complaints and in return Dr. Honigberger received valuable rewards and was made the officer-in-charge of a hospital. This royal patronage gave Homoeopathy its roots in India. Homoeopathy has blended so well into the traditions of the country that it has been recognized as one of the National Systems of Medicine and plays an important role in providing health care to a large number of people. |
