HOMEOPATHY

HOMEOPATHY

Overview and Facts

One who practices homeopathy believes in a quote that similar cures similar. Homeopathy practitioners believe that a disease will be cured by the same disease. This treatment may trigger other symptoms, with the belief that it can cure the same illness.

For instance, those organic substances that react to the human body such as onions can make eyes watery yet can treat irritation and allergies.

Additional water or alcohol is added to weaken the ingredient and this is done by the homeopathic doctors. After it, they will mix it by shaking through potentization. The healing essence is acquired according to what they believe. They believe that medicine is more powerful while the dosage is less.

Types and Symptoms

SYMPTOMS

Symptoms are recognizable in the health of the patient and around him and are deviations from the normal state. It is believed by homeopaths that symptoms guide us to know the illness of a patient. It can be determined that physical symptoms are only at the physical level, while others are mental symptoms. Subjective symptoms are those explained by the patient. Objective symptoms are those being observed by the physician.

Diagnosis & Medications

DIAGNOSIS

The certain points drawn out by the physician during the examination are called signs. Subjective and objective symptoms and signs may often occur in a diseased person. All of these are learned by a homeopath as he or she strives to understand the internal malfunctioning of the patient. Symptoms could really help a lot in the process of treating the disease.

In the process of collecting details from the patient, symptoms will form an impression. This is called “evaluation of the symptoms” in homeopathy. All diseases will be evaluated and paired with their remedies.

TREATMENT

A homeopath usually seeks and gathers details from a patient. This information is useful in treatment. Treatment is based on symptoms and an overall general picture of the person’s condition.
