  • Homeopathy ("home-ee-AH-pah-thy") is a type of medical practice that was first expounded by the German physician Samuel Hahnemann in the early 1800s. Homeopaths try to help patients by stimulating the normal healing ability of the human body. The homeopathic approach to medical therapy seeks to match homeopathic remedies to individual patient needs. A fundamental principle of homeopathy is that for each patient a homeopathic remedy should be selected that causes symptoms similar to the existing symptoms of the sick patient. Homeopathic remedies typically use non-existent doses of substances that cause symptoms of illness in healthy people when given in large doses. This therapeutic strategy is called "like cures like." Homeopathic remedies are typically produced by starting with a plant or mineral. The remedy is made by dilution of the original plant extract, often to the point that no molecules from the starting material remain in the remedy that is given to the patient, but retains a memory of the original substance.
