Homeopathy is a therapeutic system of medicine. It is based on the principle of ‘like cures like’. Which means; that substance which caused the illness, when prepared according to homeopathic principles will in fact cure the illness.
For example – when peeling and cutting up an onion, we generally experience streaming and tearing from the eyes. Allium Cepa (red onion) when used in a homeopathic preparation will cure streaming, tearing and burning of the eyes in illnesses such as colds, flu and hay fever. WOW!! It is simple!
Let’s compare the human body to that of a car, and a symptom like knee pain to that of the oil light on the dash board. When the oil light on the dash board comes on we fix the problem by topping up with oil, and the light goes off, keeping the engine in balance and healthy. We don’t cut the cord between the light and the engine to turn the light off (out of sight out of mind)! So then why do cut the cord between the symptom (knee pain) and the problem by taking pain killers, anti-inflammatory, beta blockers, anti-depressants, sleeping tablets etc.., all of which are “cutting the cord”.
Homeopathy “tops up” the body, bringing it back into balance, so that it is able to heal it self and once again experience optimum health.
It just makes common sense.!! Doesn’t it?
