Homeopathy is derived from the Greek words homeo (similar) and pathos (suffering). Homeopathic medicine was created by Samuel Hahnemann in the 1700s, facing high mortality and limited success with conventional medicine. The main principle of homeopathic medicine rests on the idea of similars, meaning ‘like cures like’: using small amounts of a substance that would normally produce symptoms of a disease in healthy people. Another principle of homeopathy is the idea of dilution, which states that the lower the dosage the more effective the treatment.

Dilution
Homeopathic drugs are diluted in order to prevent toxicity. The homeopathic medical system believes that the medications should be diluted because water has a molecular memory that transfers the essence of the remedy into the body. Criticism of homeopathic medicine arises from the fact that scientific evaluations of dilutions are limited because they don’t contain enough of the original substance to be accurately measured.
Methods
Homeopathic practitioners work to prepare an extensive evaluation of the patient’s psychological and physical concern. This evaluation is then compared with reference books that prescribe the suitable remedy. In this way, homeopathic doctors operate much the same way as conventional doctors; they examine the patient, take into account the patient’s history, and investigate the issues when they make a diagnosis. Homeopathic remedies are made from plant, animal, and synthetic compounds.
Treatment
Homeopathy can be very effective when the proper remedy is used. This can mean quick results that fully and permanently solve the problem. Homeopathic remedies are safe for use even for babies and pregnant women. They can also be used with other medications without causing negative side effects. It works with your immune system rather than suppressing your immune system like some conventional medicines such as cough medicine, which actually suppresses coughs that are usually your body’s way of clearing the lungs.
