Basics About Homeopathy (and Then Some)

How does Homeopathy Work? Homeopathy isn't treating a disease - it's treating a person with a disease.  Homeopathic remedies aim to stimulate the body's own healing mechanisms.  We homeopaths believe that physical disease often has mental and emotional components, so a homeopathic diagnosis includes physical symptoms (such as feverishness), current emotional and psychological state (such as anxiety and restlessness), and the person's constitution. (A person's constitution includes qualities related to creativity, initiative, persistence, concentration, physical sensitivities, and stamina.)  The right remedy for a condition will take all of these aspects into account, so each diagnosis and remedy is individualized.
