Homeopathy: The Art and Science of Healing Naturally
Note: The terms “Homeopathy” and “Homoeopathy” are used interchangeably and refer to the same system of medicine.
In today’s world, homeopathy is gaining global acceptance as an effective, gentle, and side-effect-free system of medicine. At Satva Homeopathy, we believe in demystifying this powerful science for our patients. This section offers a concise overview of homeopathy and the foundational principles that guide its healing process.
What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a holistic system of medicine based on the universal principle of “Similia Similibus Curentur”—“Let like be cured by like.” Discovered by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann in 1790, this therapeutic science treats disease by stimulating the body’s own healing response through natural remedies that mirror the patient’s symptoms.
Rather than focusing on isolated symptoms, homeopathy explores the entire constitution—taking into account physical health, emotional balance, mental state, lifestyle, genetic influences, and environmental factors. Treatments are individualized after an in-depth case study and are designed to heal from the root, not just suppress symptoms.
Homeopathy’s scope extends across acute and chronic conditions, and in modern practice, it is often used in integrated care, where homeopathic remedies complement conventional interventions and emergency medical procedures when necessary. This approach helps reduce healthcare burden while providing safe, sustainable recovery.
