What is Classical Homeopathy?
“Homeopathy is one of the systems of traditional (holistic) medicine that should be integrated worldwide with conventional medicine in order to provide adequate global health care.” —The World Health Organization Classical homeopathy is very different in approach from most conventional medical care systems. Normally, we visit a medical doctor for a specific disease, problem or group of symptoms. A medicine is prescribed to remove the symptoms. However, from the holistic medical point of view, symptoms are there for a reason and if the reason remains, the problem will return, either in the same form or as a different disease or set of symptoms. You may have had experiences where, despite conventional treatment, symptoms return again and again. At other times symptoms seem to disappear after treatment, but not long afterwards new symptoms arise to take their place. The reason for this is that the core problem wasn’t dealt with.

The word homeopathy is derived from the Greek words homoios, meaning similar and pathos, meaning suffering. Classical homeopathy, the fastest growing health care system in the world, is a complete, natural healing system discovered over 200 years ago by the German physician, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann. It is based on the principle that like cures like, called “The Law of Similars”. Classical homeopathy is a holistic therapy. The individual is considered as a whole and symptoms from the body, mind, and spirit are considered when choosing a homeopathic remedy. Homeopathy takes into consideration a person’s environment and lifestyle, providing individualized treatment for the person. Classical homeopathy most closely matches the totality of the individual’s symptoms and personality with the homeopathic remedy in order to stimulate the body’s own natural healing response. In classical homeopathy, the use of a single remedy at a time is a basic principle. Homeopathic remedies are made from infini
