What is Homeopathy ?
:-
A method of treating disease by prescribing minute doses of drugs which, in maximum dose, would produce symptoms of the disease. Homeopathy is derived from two Greek word Homeo and Pathos where Homeo means 'similar' and Pathos means 'Suffering or diseases'.
Homoeopathy is a specialized system of therapeutics, developed by Dr. Samuel Christian Friedreich Hahnemann, based on the natural law of healing : "Similia Similibus Curantur" which means "Likes are cured by likes".
Dr. W. E. Boyd has defined Homoeopathy as :-
"Homoeopathy is a therapeutic method which assumes that a deviation from the fundamental mean within reversible limits can be restored to normal by means of stimuli , usually appliedin the form of drugs, only sub-physiological doses of which are necessary because of hypersensitivity in disease and whosr action is always directed to ward by virtue of altered receptivity of tissue to stimuli in disease"
Thus Homoeopathy is a system of treating diseases by the administration of drugs which possess power of producing similar suffering(disease) in a healthy human being. This Law of Similars dor curing Diseases has been in use since the time of Hippocrates, Father of Medicine. But it was Dr. Hahnemann who developed it into a complete system of therepeutics enunciating the law and its application in 1810.
