Homeopathy
Homeopathy is a holistic healing type of medicine developed by a German physicist named Samuel Hahnemann in 1796. Homeopathy is based on the principle of “like cures like.” A large dose of a substance that will produce certain symptoms in a healthy person can cure the same symptoms in a sick person.
No one really knows exactly how homeopathy works. We think that the homeopathic remedy triggers the body’s immune system to produce antibodies against the disease much like a vaccine. The homeopathic medicine seems to stimulate the body on an energetic level, causing the body’s own healing ability to respond.
Homeopathic medicines come in several different strengths from 6x, 12x, 6c, 12c, 30c, 1M, to 200M. The letter refers to how diluted the medicine is. The more diluted the formula, however, the stronger the solution.
For instance, 1 drop of original mixture, or mother tincture, in 9 drops of alcohol would equal 1x. 1 drop of mother tincture to 99 drops of alcohol would equal 1c. 1 drop of mother tincture to 999 drops of alcohol would equal 1M. To get a 6x potency, the most common formula, you would have to repeat the process of 1 drop in 9 drops of alcohol 6 times. Contrary to logical thinking, 10M is more potent than 30c, which is more potent than 6x.
Critics of Homeopathic Medicine often argue that there is so little active ingredient left in the homeopathic remedy that it cannot possibly be enough to have any positive effect on the patient. The cure is all in the patient’s head, a result of the placebo effect.
However young children, animals, even unconscious individuals respond favorably to homeopathic remedies. This would seem to disprove any placebo effect theory.
Because the homeopathic remedies are so dilute they are harmless and safe enough for small children and the elderly. There are no serious side effects reported with these cures and the remedy can be taken along with prescription medication.
Homeopathic remedies have proven to be quite effective provided the correct remedy is chosen for your symptom. Homeopathy is a holistic practice, so the homeopath will take a complete evaluation of your condition.
Your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual conditions will all be assessed and the remedy that most closely matches your symptoms and personality traits will be prescribed. If you do not respond to the homeopathic remedy, chances are you are taking the wrong one.
Chronic illnesses such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome, depression, anxiety, and asthma respond well to homeopathic remedies. There are also specific remedies for things like poison ivy and other allergies.
