Homoeopathy

Homeopathy is a alternative (sometimes complementary) medicine system developed in the late 1700s mainly in Germany and other parts of Europe. Homeopathy is based on the principles of “like cures like” and “law of infinitesimals”. Homeopaths believe that a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can be used in a highly diluted form to treat those same symptoms in a sick person. Homeopathic medicines are prepared by diluting substances like plants, minerals, and animal products mainly in alcohol and then shaking the mixture. This process is called “potentization”.
