Homeopathic Treatment

Homeopathy is a medical art and science which uses tiny doses of natural medicines to stimulate the body's own inherent healing abilities. The practitioner works to understand each person's unique mental and emotional makeup, striving always for individualization.

Homeopathy's central principle is known as the law of similars, "Like Cures Like." People have observed since ancient times that a substance which causes an illness or a symptom can, in very small doses, cure the same problem by rousing the organism to retune itself.

Homeopathic medicines are among the safest known: non-allergenic, non-toxic, and free of side effects. They are prepared from herbal, mineral, and animal substances by special pharmacies. The indicated remedy is the one which is truly homeopathic (most similar) to the patient. Classical homeopathy, as originally developed and taught by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), uses only one remedy at a time.

The in-depth interview process delves deeply into the patient's physical, mental, and emotional being. People appreciate the individualized care provided by their homeopathic doctor, knowing that they have been listened to and understood.

Homeopathic remedies are used to treat a great variety of conditions. They may be used for first aid, acute, and chronic forms of disease. The remedies actually promote health by strengthening your own internal defense mechanism and thus effecting a true cure.

Although identifying the effective homeopathic medicine for an individual patient can be challenging, requiring self-disclosure from the patient as well as knowledge, insight and perseverance from the physician, the results of successful homeopathic treatment are often outstanding.
