Mind is the key to the man.

The word "Homeopathy" is constituted of "homos",meaning similar and "pathos" meaning suffering ,which is dependent on the principle of" Like Cures Like "which further means that the symptoms or the disease created by a substance if taken in crude form by a living being ,in the state of health ,can be treated by the same substance if administered in minute form in the shape of triturations and dilutions prepared as per homeopathic pharmacopia.Dr Samuel Hahnemann a german physict coined this term and founded the principles of practice of Homeopathy more than 200 years ago. As health is the complete harmony of the body,mind and soul or spirit so,during a state of sickness,we need to attend to the sick person as a whole rather than focusing on just the symptoms or the individual part of the body alone.For example ,if you have migraine it does not mean that your head is sick,this can be an outward expression through the pain in head of some other disorder inside the system of the body like indigestion,under rest,overwork,lack of sleep or some allergy,to name a few.When it comes to treatment we need to treat the whole person to improve the condition because we are body,mind and spirit(disturbed as a whole) not just skeleton of flesh and bones.Mind being the supercomputer of the human body is working non stop round the clock,emanating signals every now and then in a state of sickness and health alike.The idea is to grasp these signals in a state of sickness ,when it comes to treating a condition ,and then translate them in to the suitable repertorial language of the mind coupled with body language of the sufferer.The body language plays a vital part in understanding any individual.Physiognomy through various gestures and acts is the most reliable language,being unpolluted.This is the task of a classical homeopath who will fish out the best indicated constitutional homeopathic remedy for the sick person depending upon the mental state of the person during sickness.The cure affected through well selected Homeopathic remedy is gentle,rapid,permanent and free from any side effects.
