A holistic, individualized system of healing
Understand the history, principles, and practice of homeopathy — communicated responsibly and without exaggerated claims.
History
Homeopathy was founded in the late 18th century by the German physician Dr. Samuel Hahnemann. Frustrated with the harsh medical practices of his time, he developed a gentler system based on the principle of similars — the idea that a substance causing symptoms in a healthy person could help relieve similar symptoms in the unwell.
Over two centuries, homeopathy has evolved through the work of practitioners across Europe, India, the Americas, and beyond. Today it is practiced worldwide as a complementary system of medicine, with active research, regulation and education.
Four ideas at the heart of homeopathy
Like Cures Like
Similia similibus curentur — substances producing symptoms in the healthy may relieve similar symptoms in the sick.
Minimum Dose
Remedies are used in the smallest dose needed to stimulate the body's healing response.
Individualization
The whole person — physical, mental and emotional — guides the choice of remedy.
Single Remedy
One carefully selected remedy at a time is preferred in classical homeopathy.
