Homeopathy is a treatment method that involves taking a remedy that activates the body’s  inherent healing ability and thus affecting a gentle cure.

It was  first proposed by well respected German physician Samuel Hahnemann in 1796. The principle of healing in Homeopathy is Simila Similbus Curentor which means ‘ Like Cures Like”. According to Hahnemann, all the symptoms that have deviated from normal are caused by the derangement in the vital force.

These symptoms are analysed from the case taking which is more detailed than in conventional case taking. The symptoms that have deviated from normal are then matched to a remedy that causes the same symptoms as studied from the homeopathic materia medica which is derived by doing a 'proving’.
