Homeopathy is recognized
by the World Health Organization as the second most prevalently used
therapeutic system in the world.
It is currently used by over 300 million users in more than 80 countries. It is a 200-year old system of medicine
that addresses acute and chronic issues as well as being extremely effective during times of epidemics. Homeopathic remedies are created
using substances from the natural world: plants, minerals and animals.
Homeopathy is
based on the belief that the body has the ability to heal itself. The body is
built for health and well-being and it will always try to get back to its
natural, healthy state. However,
sometimes the body needs to be given the right stimulus to provoke the healing
process. Homeopathic remedies
stimulate the body’s own natural defence system (a.k.a. immune system) to rev up
and overcome that which is challenging it. A homeopathic remedy is like pressing the reset button or
like rebooting a computer. In this
way a person’s own body is stimulated to restore itself back into balanced
health.
Homeopathic
remedies don’t chemically affect the body. For this reason homeopathic remedies
can safely be used in conjunction with pharmaceutical drugs, supplements or
herbal tinctures. These all work
on a chemical level, while homeopathic remedies at an energetic level.
Homeopathic
remedies are gentle, non-toxic and deep-acting. They help facilitate long-lasting, curative effects. They are safe and can be used by
newborns, nursing babies, pregnant women, the elderly and everyone in between. Homeopathic remedies work to improve
overall health by addressing the cause and not just suppressing symptoms. This is why with a good homeopathic
prescription once you are feeling better there is no need to continue taking
the remedy as your immune system has reassumed its responsibility to oversee your
movement back to a state of balanced health.
