Homeopathy is the art, science and philosophy of curing disease with the “like cures like” phenomenon. “Homeo” is Greek for similar and “pathy” means disease or suffering.

In homeopathy, disease is treated with a potentiated dilution of plant, animal or mineral substance. The particular substance used would create the same symptoms of the disease in a healthy person.

With homeopathy, the cure requires the deeper action of the body itself to counter the disease, so the healing comes from within. In the case of the sour stomach, the homeopathic remedy would stimulate the stomach to produce the balancing secretions. In allopathy, disease is treated from without, expecting the medicine to balance the activity of the body.

Homeopathy reestablishes the full expression of the individual’s vital force, thus curing pathology and increasing health. Homeopathy is used for both acute and chronic physical and psychological health issues.
