HOMEOPATHY – What is Homoeopathy?

HOMOEOPATHY FOUNDER: DR SAMUELHAHNEMANN

Country of origin: Germany

Specialty: Deals more with patients than disease

Disease is an altered state of body and mind, which may be due to many factors:
1.Natural forces – Summer heat, rain, wind, etc.

2.Artificial – Polluted air, water, fertilized foods in modern living, injuries, high-tension job, noisy world, etc.

3. Infection – By bacteria, viruses, etc.
But everything depends upon willpower and immunity (i.e., resistance against disease).

Cure is possible by natural phenomena and with medicines. Natural cure can be brought out by:
1. Body reactions – Like fever, sweating, etc.

2.Faith can also cure patients, i.e., faith in God – in doctor – in medicine – in his own body that he will not be affected by any means. Here the willpower-and-faith compound works.

3. Sleep is also a factor of natural cure. Sleep cures more than doctors, and it is better thanmedicines. It gives good mental health.

All these natural phenomena work only in the initial stages of disease. Later, medicines are needed for body mechanisms to cure the disease. Here, if you start treatment early, you get speedy and complete cure. In all natural ways of healing, the immune power is increased against that disease, so that recurrence is avoided. When the cure is not in the proper way, the disease often recurs.

Medical systems are of different types – Allopathy, Homoeopathy, Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani, Naturopathy, etc. They all treat the patients in different ways, through different approaches and with different principles. Each one has its own efficacy and limitations.

Homoeopathic medicines are very refined and are given in minimal and minute doses, so there are no side-effects. The system treats the patient as a whole i.e. mind and body, and makes one free of the disease condition, and prevents recurrence.

Homoeopathic medicines can be used in all types of disease, at all ages, in all circumstances. By acting in a natural way it increases immunity. It also removes tendencies, allergies and thus helps mankind to live in a modern world that is highly polluted. It also reduces the impact of hereditary-familial diseases by raising the immunity level.

Also, in some painful conditions like peptic ulcer, patients cannot take Allopathy painkillers since the ulcer will get aggravated. But in Homoeopathy we can treat in a better way the painful condition and peptic ulcer.

Homoeopathy medicines act through nerve endings in the tongue – the doctor will merely ask the patient to place the medicine under the tongue and let it melt slowly – so they are no way related to the stomach or blood. So, even pregnant women can take these medicines safely

Tendencies: When patients suffer constantly from some disease conditions which are untreated or not properly treated, then they become tendencies, like tendency to catch cold, to stone formation in kidney and gall bladder, to growths like warts, lipoma, infections like sinusitis, boils, headache, pimples, etc. – here patients are repeatedly affected by the same type of complaints. These types of patients usually take medicines like anti-allergic, vaso dilators, and painkillers which give only 24-36 hours relief. But these patients can be cured permanently through Homoeopathy.

Allergies – Some people are allergic to foods, medicines, smells, irritants, that produce:
1.Sneezing cough – When exposed to dust, smells, A/C room, cold winds, etc.
2.Contact dermatitis – When wearing ornaments and watches.
3.Itching and rashes – When in contact with chemicals, soaps, mosquito bites.
4.Recurrent apthae (ulcers) of the mouth – from juices, etc.

When we have these types of allergies, we have to eliminate the maintaining cause first and get rid of them. In some unavoidable circumstances like mosquito bites, dust, we can take homoeopathic medicines to avoid allergy. This will increase immunity and cure or lessen the allergic reactions, thus helping in modern living.

Hereditary familial disease like hypertension, diabetes, cancer, can also be treated in successful way and maintained without complications like flutings, palpitations, burning hands and feet, weakness, ulcers, etc.

Homoeopathy works better in children. Repeated attacks of cold and primary complex can be easily cured. Weak, puny children can be treated to become robust kids, retarded growths and babies with delayed mill stones like delay in walking, standing, speaking can be treated. Babies with milk allergy, constipation, diarrhoea, night cry can also be corrected. Habit-forming like nail-biting and bed-wetting, can also be treated. Worm infestation can also be treated very successfully.

Cosmetic ailments like pimples, blackish, or whitish discolouration, warts, fungal infections, leucoderma, hair fall, hair splits, dandruff, can also be treated.

Psychological disease like fears, anxiety, sleeplessness, mental irritations, anger, can also be corrected. Children can improve their power of concentration and memory through this system of medicine.

Female complaints like – painful periods, profuse flow and uterine tumours, white discharges, breast tumours, etc., can also treated. Male complaints like impotency, sterility, ulcers can also be treated with analysis of defects -hormonal, functional, etc.

Surgery can be avoided in many cases like piles, uterine masses, breast tumours, pleurisy, gall stone and kidney stone. In advanced conditions, surgery is the only way.

In total, Homoeopathy is the finger-post on the cross-roads of healing which directs the way of safest permanent cure.
