HOMOEOPATHY Like cures like. Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), German Physician, Father of Homoeopathy The word Homoeopathy comes from the Greek ὅμοιος (hómoios) meaning "similar" and πάθος (páthos) meaning "suffering" or "disease." Homoeopathic approach that like cures like is different from allopathic medical approach, by which the opposite is used to treat an ailment, by fighting against the perceived cause (by anti-biotics, pain-killers, anti-depressants etc.). Classical homeopathy is holistic - it takes into account and heals systemically all aspects of one’s being – mental, emotional, physical, physiological, relational, dreaming, habits, beliefs etc. According to the homoeopathic principle that like cures like client’s profile is matched by the corresponding energy remedy, which is prescribed in minimal drop doses. Homoeopathic remedies are made by diluting the original substance to such a degree that they do not contain even a molecule of that substance, but only its energy trace.  Benefits Each and every human aspect - mental, emotional, physiological, physical and spiritual - can benefit from Homeopathy, which helps open up the path to your health, success and fulfilment. Homoeopathy can enhance one's ability for spontaneous healing and help shift the perception from 'problems' to 'solution' and 'feeling stuck' to 'opportunity for growth.' Compatibility Most homoeopathic remedies are compatible with all other forms of healing - medical, traditional, complementary and self-healing. However, since there are also homoeopathic remedies that are contra-indicated in certain conditions, it is essential not to self-prescribe, but to consult a qualified practitioner. When health is absent, wisdom can not reveal itself, strength cannot be exerted, wealth is useless, and reason is powerless.
