A system
of medical treatment started by a German Physician, Samuel Hahnemann (1755
–1843A.D.). Homeopathy is based on the premise that the symptoms of a disease are
evidence of a curative process going on in the body in response to the
disease. The homoeopathic physician attempts to promote the further
development of these systems in order to accelerate the body’s self cure.
Though homoeopathy is a new science developed primarily in Europe and not
having its roots embedded in tradition and history, it has over the years,
become an integral part of the Indian way of life. Partly due to its remarkable healing capacity and partly to the low cost of medicines
involved, it is widely used by a large segment of the Indian population.

Indian homoeopaths have contributed to its growth by developing and adding
many medicines and drugs based on their study of other prevalent systems of
medicine in the country. “Similia similibus courantur” – “Like cures
like”- is the guiding principle of homoeopathy. In practice this means
that a drug which is capable of producing a certain set of symptoms in a
healthy body when taken in large physiological does, will relieve or ‘cure’
a similar set of symptoms in the diseased organism when it is given in small
homoeopathic doses. Medicines in high potency doses are so highly refined that
they cannot possibly produce harmful results or suppress nature’s cleansing
and healing efforts .

Every acute disease is the result of a
cleansing and healing effort by Nature. Giving a remedy which produces the
same or similar symptoms in the system, aids Nature in her attempts to
overcome the abnormal condition; thus accelerating and hastening the
curative process. If the remedy is well chosen, the very first homoeopathic
aggravation will be followed by speedy readjustment. |

Disease resides in the cells
of the body. The well – being of the organism as a whole is dependent upon
the health of the individual cells of which it is composed. To restore them
to health, cells must be freed of all undesirable encumbrances. Homoeopaths
are of the opinion that toxins and waste products are generated in the body
and merely stimulating the activity of the kidneys or the skin with
allopathic drugs will not neutralize and oxidize these cellular level and
that it requires only 12 remedies to restore the impaired health of the body
by supplying to it the vital cell – salts that it is deficient in. These
cell – salts are the inorganic constituents of the body’s tissues. They are
supplied by nature in a pure and atomized form in certain proportions in all
tissues of the body, in all plants and in all foods. They are abundantly
available in their crude and impure state on the earth. The composition of
the 12 remedies formulated by Dr. Schussler corresponds with the principle
inorganic elements found in the body. Absolutely harmless, these tissue
salts or mineral salts are not drugs in any sense of the word. They simply
provide the system with its deficient inorganic elements, prepared
homeopathically, in an extremely fine form which ensures their ready
assimilation and a speedy restoration of the balance and harmony in the
system.
