Homeopathy

According to Associate chambers of commerce and Industry on the base of a study report homoeopathy is a very popular clinical system. Because it provides remedy of arthritis, Diabetes, Thyroid, dieses related to respiration, Asthma, T.B. etc, without any side effect. Homeopathic medicines have no any types of side effect. Homeopathy is the branch of Medicine based on Nature’s Law called ‘Law of Similars’. (Similia similibus curentur – a Latin maxim which means ‘Let likes be treated by likes.’), Hippocrates – the father of medicine, knew this law. According to the ‘Law of Similars’, a drug (or medicine) that produces a set of symptoms in a healthy person will cure a diseased person suffering from similar symptoms. It was founded by a German physician Dr C. F. Samuel Hahnemann (10th April 0755- 2nd July 1843 A.D.) in 18th century who is considered as Father of Homoeopathy. Homoeopathy is best recommended for chronic diseases such as allergies, asthma, skin diseases like urticaria, psoriasis, eczema, chronic gastritis, sinusitis, migraine, herpes etc.

Homoeopathic medicine is built upon several basic principles. The first law says that individual can fight the symptoms by re-creating those very symptoms that the disease is manifesting, i.e. “likes are cured by likes”. The second law shows that the substance that provokes the imitation of the symptoms needs to be extra diluted to work well; high doses would provoke ugly aggravations of the symptoms which could prove fatal. The third law of homeopathy says that the quantity of the medicine should be very small as this is actually used only to boost the immune system of the body to fight against the disease. Homeopathy pays emphasis on strengthening the immune system and curing like with like. Homeopathy today has gained wide acceptability, both in India and abroad, because of its holistic and intrinsic values, the low cost of medication coupled with ease of administration and absence of more side effects.
