Most
diseases have their beginnings in the mind. A healthy body is
the result of a positive frame of mind. Homoeopathy goes
beyond just treating the body to treating the mind. Besides,
homoeopathic medicines are gentle, non-toxic and harmless as
compared to the harsh drugs of Allopathic medicine.
Homeopathy is a clinical science discovered and initially
developed by Christian Frederich Samuel Hahnemann, a
German physician in the late 1790's and1800's. Hahnemann
and his 19th Century followers believed that Homeopathy worked
because it assisted the body's own curative power or life force
to throw off diseases and restore balance to the body.
Homeopathic physicians do not diagnose diseases; rather they
catalogue the sufferer's symptoms and locate a medicine which
would stimulate very similar symptoms in the body. The treatment
is based on the principles of the eternal law of nature called
"Similia Similibus Curentur" or likes treated by likes, also
known as the law of similars.
For common and chronic diseases, the Homeopathic system of
medicine is ideal and is becoming popular nowadays, according
to Gajalakshmi Kabilan of The Homoeo World, dealers
in all kinds of homoeo medicine, biomedicines and homoeo books.
The Karnataka State Government has also established a Homeopathic
college and Hospital on Magadi Road in Bangalore.
Another private college offering courses in Homeopathy is the
Bhagawan Buddha Homeopathic Medical college in Bangalore.
Both the institutions offer courses like BHMS (four and
a half years duration), Gajalakshmi explained.
Most of the Homoeopathic medicines are extracted from natural
elements like salt, fruits, herbs, she added. She opined that
in the Homoeopathic system of medicine the diagnosing of diseases
should be developed further for speedy cure. The Homoeo World,
has been dispensing Homoeopathic medicines for over 15 years.
It has another branch on Tank Bund road in Subhashnagar.
TheHomoeo World has consulting Homeopaths who
treat patients and prescribe medicines, says Gajalakshmi.
