I’ve noticed some of my recent patients hadn’t heard of homeopathy and were very surprised
at how tiny white pills had the ability to make their kids’ skin symptoms disappear. How do
these mystery sugar pills work?
Homeopathy is based on the principle “Like Cures Like”, in which a substance that produces
particular symptoms in a healthy person, treats these same symptoms in an unhealthy person.
A Homeopath’s job is to match the patients’ symptoms, to a remedy that exhibits a similar
symptom picture. This is called finding a patients’ Similimum. The Similimum is then responsible for stimulating the patients vital force back into balance.
It’s all about our perception of the world. We each have our own perception of the things that
happen to us in life, which may cause us to see our life through colored lenses. This can be a
distortion of what really happened, which affects our ability to live our best life. Homeopathy is
about removing those lenses in order to see clearly again.
Thus, Homeopathy is type of mind-body medicine and brings us back to a state of optimal
health. What is health? Is it simply the absence of disease? I believe the definition of health is
more than that; it is being able to move through the obstacles that life throws.
