Homeopathy is a curative sciences that is based on three principles namely, Like Cures Like,Administration of Minimal Dosage, Only Implementation of a Single Remedy. It is on the basis of these principles that homoeopathy is more or less a preferred form of medicine. It is in fact stated to be the second most used system of medicine in the world after allopathic. A homeopathic practitioner when diagnosing an ailment does not only look at the externals of the patient. It is not just about the aches or pains as experienced, but also the mental and emotional state of the patient. In Homeopathy, practitioners often follow detailed and preset procedures when treating patients. Homeopaths generally begin with comprehensive examinations of patients histories, body types, as well as physical and emotional illnesses.
Homeopathy has been unsupported by scientific research since its inception.The extremely high dilutions in homeopathy have been a main point of criticism. Homeopaths believe that the methodical dilution of a substance, beginning with a 10% or lower solution and working downwards, with shaking after each dilution, produces a therapeutically active “remedy”, in contrast to therapeutically inert water. However, homeopathy often dilutes remedies to the point where there are no molecules from the original substance left in the final remedy, leaving the remedy chemically identical to water. This has led many critics to conclude that any effect that might have been present from the original substance can no longer exist.
