How Homeopathy work?
Homeopathic medicine is a holistic system of treatment which basically identifies and makes use of the own power of the human body which is in other words known as the Vital Force and this is what is believed to be stimulating all the living beings in this world. In contrast to the most common belief of many people that homeopathy is a kind of herbal or natural treatment; it is, in essence, far more specific and a clear-cut system of medicine that is complete and quite exhaustive. It is a system of holistic medication that can enable the course of not just healing the mind and body but also getting back a person to complete wellness, power, function and cheerfulness.
Homeopathy is different in terms of the way individuals are treated and is essentially become part of the traditional Western medicine these days. The strong belief of this stream of medication is that, the more diluted is a medicine; the more is its power to cure the illness.
Homeopathic Remedies and Treatments
Homeopathy is a very old system of treatment and healing which uses extremely diluted substances to fuel a healing reaction in the human body.
Principles of Homeopathy is based
Homeopathy is predominantly based on three sound principles namely:
• The principle/law of Similar
• Law of individualization
• Law of infinitesimal dose
According to the law of similars or technically called "like cures like," it is believed that any substance that might cause a symptom in a healthy body has also got the power to heal the same symptom found in a person who is ill. Likewise, the law of individualization denotes that the symptoms of each and every human being are unique and in a situation where the person falls sick, homeopathic treatment tends to look for the person who is suffering with the disease and not the disease essentially that is making the person to suffer. The third principle on which homeopathy relies upon is the law of infinitesimal dosage of medication, and according to this particular principle, the medication that is administered to a patient who is suffering with a particular symptom is equal to the total symptoms that are found in the person. This form of alternative medicine focuses more on locating the modalities of the specific symptom and not much on the disease in essence.
How it works?
Homeopathy makes use of only natural substances which if administered in strong doses result in symptoms, but rectifies these same symptoms if the dosage is administered in a diluted form basically at the infinitesimal dose. When the immune system is feeble and is not in a position to restore the human being back to an overall cure all by its own, then there is a need for stimulation that is to be done along with medicine. The drug must encompass great amounts of medicinal energies which are actually capable of encouraging the immune system.
The primary cause for any disease is nothing but toxins. Toxins actually disturb the steadiness of the vital force and interrupt vital function. Thus, during illness, the vital force endeavors to restore the organism back to equilibrium. As vital energy upsurges in an endeavor to eliminate toxins from the system, it also incites symptoms.
