Symptoms in Homeopathy

A basic premise of Homeopathy is remedies work because they trigger the body's own healing abilities.
The theory of Homeopathy was founded more than 200 years ago, by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), a German physician. During his intensive research and personal study, he concluded that when any substance––plant, animal or mineral––is taken in excess, the body responds with certain symptoms. When these substances are taken in a highly diluted form, they can relieve the same symptoms they originally induced at the higher dosage. The concept is "Like cures Like."A basic premise of Homeopathy is remedies work because they trigger the body's own healing abilities.
