HOMEOPATHY

Homeopathy is a form of alternative medicine that focuses on stimulating the body’s natural healing mechanisms. It is based on the principle of “like cures like,” meaning that a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can be used to treat those same symptoms in a sick person. Homeopathic remedies are highly diluted substances derived from plants, minerals, and animals.

The goal of homeopathy is to address the underlying cause of an illness or condition rather than just treating the symptoms. Practitioners individualize treatment based on a person’s unique symptoms and overall health, believing that each person has a specific energy or vital force.

Critics argue that the effectiveness of homeopathy is largely due to the placebo effect and that there is little scientific evidence to support its claims. However, many people report positive experiences with homeopathy and continue to seek its benefits for a wide range of health issues.
