Dr.
S. Hahnemann - Founder of modern day homeopathy
I believe that Homeopathy is even more important to us in the 21st
century than ever before. Most of us are living with some sort of stress in our lives - be it physical through air and noise
pollution or degraded food, mentally through overwork (or being out of work), the emotional stresses of relationships and
family life. And more ...
Our immune system and our innate healing capability of our bodies is being attacked
on all fronts, which can leave us often feeling tired and prone to minor illnesses just when we want to be on top form.
Many
people are taking their our own steps to counteract this global assault: eating wholesome and/or organic food, reducing
stimulants like coffee and alcohol, drinking more water, exercising regularly. Some are also looking at their personal and
spiritual growth, being true to themselves, and changing career or pursuing a life style that uses their skills and gifts
to improve their lives and those of others.
Homeopathy's founder, Samuel Hahnemann’s work is based on the scientific steps of hypothesis, observations,
testing, validation in practice, which led to the formulation of the principles of homeopathy (which are very to simply find
the cause of the symptoms and prescribe from that place and the body will naturally remove the effects). Homeopathy is part
of the wider study of energetic medicine and necessitates an understanding of nutrition, diet, herbal remedies, detoxing and
life style changes that fall under the term ‘naturopathic medicine’.
Pharmacology has noticed that when we intrude on the body by overriding natural processes, our body compensates
by adjusting its own chemical levels to cancel the effect of the drug. This is known as the "bi-phasic" (or
two-phased) effect of drugs.
The "bi-phasic" (or two-phased) effect of drugs is:
• ‘Phase one’ is what the drug does to the body.
• ‘Phase two’
is how the body adapts to the drug.
The phases tend to go in opposite directions: the drug pushes; the body pushes back. The end result of this two-phased
effect is a temporary illusion. For example if you take aspirin to thin the blood to prevent strokes, the body’s reaction
is to thicken the blood even more and so the GP has to constantly prescribe higher and higher doses of aspirin to keep the
blood thin (leading to increasingly to severe so called side effects which then have to be treated by more drugs!).
Samuel Hahnemann noticed this two-phased effect of drugs as early as 1792, ‘Most medicines have more than one action,"
he wrote, "the first a direct action, which gradually changes into a second action which is generally a state exactly
the opposite of the former."
Hahnemann's unique contribution to the science of health was to find a way that makes use of the second action to
produce the healing effect. And that's why Hahnemann sought remedies that, as their first effect, would exactly mimic
the patient's symptoms.
Allopathic Drugs use the first, and as a result, they put doctors in the curious position of fighting the very immune system
they hope to strengthen.
Homeopathic remedies do not act like drugs, and do not control the body. They can not be applied in the same way as drugs
to suppress symptoms. Homeopathy is fundamentally an alternative form of medicine, based on solid scientific
principles.
Homeopathy can support this process of self-development in
a deep and powerful way, as well as treating the major conditions, degenerative diseases and minor ailments which seem to
be affecting us more regularly.
