Welcome

Homeopathy is a natural form of medicine that was invented more than 200 years ago by a German Doctor named Samuel Hahnemann. The fundamental difference between Conventional Medicine and Homeopathy is that conventional medicine treats the illness, whereas Homeopathy treats the individual as a whole. Since everyone reacts differently to stress and their personal needs vary, Homeopathy could be your “Golden Health Bullet”.

Homeopathy is a process of natural healing in which the remedies are used by the body to heal itself by stimulating its natural healing powers. The name is derived from two Greek words and means treating ‘like with like’. This means that when a person is being treated with homeopathy, a substance is used, which in a healthy person produces symptoms and signs similar to those presented by the person. For example, a raw onion can cause sore, burning tearful eyes and a runny nose. However in its homeopathic form, it becomes the remedy Allium Cepa which is prescribed for colds, flu or other illnesses that produce the same symptoms.

Homeopathy is a gentle system of medicine that works by stimulating the body’s own natural healing ability by prescribing minute doses of natural substances.

“Homeopathy is a system of medicine which involves treating the individual with highly diluted substances, given mainly in tablet form, with the aim of triggering the body’s natural system of healing. Based on their specific symptoms, a homeopath will match the most appropriate medicine to each patient.”
Homeopathy takes into account the whole person and by doing that helps to bring the body and mind back to balance. It recognises that emotional and physical health are interconnected, and that symptoms of ill health are signs of an imbalance.

Etched in solid philosophies of their own are two popular forms of alternative medicine – homeopathy and ayurveda. However, homeopathy and ayurveda have very different origins and governing beliefs.

Homeopathy gospels ‘Like cures like’, while ayurveda believes in treating the patient based on their nature.

Homeopathy

1. Origins – Homeopathy is a complementary and alternative medicine that was developed by Samuel Hahnemann in 1796.

2. The philosophy of homeopathy – Homeopathy teaches that the human body is a unit made of various parts that falls into disharmony because of a single underlying problem. Homeopathic practitioners prescribe medicines based on the patient’s history, nature and mental conditions.

3. ‘Vital force’ and homeopathy – It is believed in homeopathy that diseases are based on the disorders of the ‘vital force’. There is something else other than just chemistry that is needed to cure a person and that is called the ‘vital force’.

4. Homeopathic definition of health – It’s the ability to fulfil our spiritual purpose – to reach the highest goal of our existence. Homeopathic medicines are generally made up of natural substances, and sometimes with minute quantities of the cause of the illness itself, which is curated, to eliminate the disease.

5. Homeopathic reasoning of diseases – In homeopathic thinking, diseases can have two causes: external and internal, and homeopathy emphasizes the internal.

Ayurveda

1. Origins – Ayurveda is a system of medicine that has its roots in the Indian subcontinent and emerged as a science, as far back as 5000 years ago.

2. The philosophy of Ayurveda – Ayurveda claims that all things in the universe, living and non-living are connected and made of the same elements – space, air, water, earth and fire.

3. Ayurvedic definition of health – Ayurvedic scriptures teach that there is a deep connection between the self and the environment, other people, and the universe. This balanced connectivity ensures good health.

4. Ayurvedic reasoning of diseases – This balance is often disrupted by our lifestyles, choices of diet, exercise, professions and relationships; and all these have the potential to create physical, emotional, mental and spiritual imbalances.

5. Doshas and Ayurveda – These imbalances are called doshas in ayurveda. They are treated by detoxification, herbal medicines and oil massages, which are prescribed based on the kind of dosha.

Any person with an acute or a chronic condition can find homeopathy beneficial. It is for children and adults, from babies, pregnant women to the elderly.

• Homeopathic remedies are solely made from natural ingredients.

• Homeopathic remedies are therefore safe and suitable for pregnant women, babies and adults alike.

Homeopathic medicines are made from a range of natural substances such as minerals and plants. Each medicine is made from a small amount of a material which is crushed, diluted and shaken. This process is repeated a specific number of times to release the healing energy. All the homeopathic remedies are available by myself in my clinic in Palolem, South Goa, India
