1 – Hippocrates ‘The Father of Medicine’
of Ancient Greece said there were two Laws of Healing: The Law of
Opposites and the Law of Similars. Homeopathy treats the patient with
medicines using the Law of Similars, orthodox medicine uses the Law of
Opposites, e.g. antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, anticonvulsants,
antihypertensives, anti-depressants, anti-psychotics.
2 – Homeopathic theories are based on
fixed principles of the Laws of Nature which do not change — unlike
medical theories which are constantly changing!
3 – Homeopathy is an evidence-based, empirical medicine.
4 – Homeopathy is both an art and a science.
5 – The Homeopathic provings of medicines are a more scientific method of testing than the orthodox model.
6 – Homeopathic medicine awakens and
stimulates the body’s own curative powers. The potentized remedy acts as
a catalyst to set healing into motion.
7 – Homeopathic medicines work by
communicating a current/pattern/frequency of energy via the whole human
body to jump start the body’s own inherent healing mechanisms.
8 – Homeopathy assists the body to heal
itself, to overcome an illness which brings the patient to a higher
level of health. Orthodox medicine suppresses the illness, bringing the
patient to a lower level of health.
9 – The homeopathic practitioner endeavours to search for and treat the cause of the disease in order to heal the effect.
10 – Outcomes of homeopathic treatment
are measured by the long term curative effects of prescribing and
complete eradication of the disease state.
11 – The homeopathic practitioner treats
the whole person, believing all symptoms are interrelated and seeks to
select a medicine which most closely covers them all.
