Basic Principles- Homeopathy is based on the “ SIMILIA SIMILIBUS CURENTUR” or “ LET LIKE BE CURED BY LIKE”. The German physician CFS Hahnemann (1755-1843) who is called the father of Homeopathy and the term “ Homeopathy” derives from Greek word “ Homoios” means Similar and “ Pathos” means Suffering . So, the literal translation of Homeopathy would be “Similar Suffering”. It was also by Hahnemann who introduced the term “ Allopathy” meaning a therapy governed by rules different from (Greek word, Allos= different)
This differentiation is still present to treat the patient. Homeopathy does not claim to be the one and only or the most effective therapy. It depends which , when the case will be considered under Homeopathy or Allopathy to treat as effective and efficient way.

Homeopathy not only treats the patients but also evaluates the diseases .On the other hands , Conventional(Allopathy) medicine only treats the diseases which finally causes side effects. Homeopathy regards the healthy individual as a balanced system, i.e. if the body falls ill, the balance has been disturbed .It tries to stimulate the body to restore the balance on its own, like stimulates the body’s defensive powers and activates the body’s capability to react ,regulate ,adapt and restore on a natural basis.
APPLICATIONS :
In acute diseases, Homeopathy is an effective therapy i.e.- just stimulates the own body immune system and then healing occurs like – cold , flu, headache , gastro-intestinal disturbance etc.
