What is homeopathy and how does it work?

Homeopathy is a system of medicine devised by the German doctor Samuel Hahnemann about 200 years ago. It has since expanded into one of the most sought after complementary medicines all over the world. It is based on the ancient healing principle that “like cures like”.

A good example for this would be the successful treatment of an acute state of sleeplessness and nervous excitement with the remedy Coffea Cruda. This remedy is a homeopathic preparation of coffee, which, as we know, if taken in normal doses, may cause a similar state of wakefulness. Unlike conventional medicine, that many times suppresses our natural responses, homeopathy empowers the wisdom of our system and works with “the doctor within” by stimulating the individual’s energy and own healing abilities.
