General information on homeopathy
A system of natural medical philosophy and practice based on the fact that the body has the ability to heal itself. Homeopathy was founded in the 1800s in Germany and has been widely practiced throughout Europe.
Homeopathy uses micro doses of plant, animal or mineral substances to relieve acute and chronic symptoms based upon the principle “like cures like”. That is, if a substance can cause symptoms in a healthy person, giving the person a very small amount of the same substance may drastically improve the symptoms of illness.
A large base of research studying the unique aspects of Homeopathic medicine shows a significant benefit in a wide variety of conditions.
They are made from small amounts of natural substances such as plants and minerals. Prepared in licensed laboratories, under strict control, they are available as liquids, pellets, tablets, or creams.
Remedies are prepared - or "potentised" - using a process of repeated dilution and succussion (vigorous shaking).
Due to their preparation remedies are suitable for adults, infants, children, pregnant or breastfeeding women and the elderly. There is even a whole branch of homeopathy that specializes in veterinary medicine.
Homeopathic remedies are very safe and taken appropriately do not have side effects. They do not interfere with medications prescribed by your medical doctor or other supplements you choose to take. Homeopathic remedies are non-toxic and recognized by the FDA.
Acute treatment – This is for illness of recent onset; it may be self-limited (for example, the common cold), or it may progress if not treated (for example, pneumonia). In such an illness the appropriate remedy gently stimulates the body to recover more quickly and efficiently.
Chronic or constitutional treatment - This is a long standing or a recurrent health problem. The length of treatment and the challenge to achieve positive results is affected by many factors, including the nature of the problem, the early health history, the family medical history, the previous treatment, and the person’s inherent constitutional strength. The goal is to help the person to return to a state of well-being through individualized homeopathic treatment. This type of treatment typically uses LM potencies, for more information please see LM FAQ's
