Homoeopathy
History of Homoeopathy
Homoeopathy is a medical system that supports healing and trats physical, emotional and mental conditions. Homoeopathy is an alternative medicine based on the principle that “like cures like”, which means that a substance that causes the symptoms of a dis-ease in healthy people will cure similar symptoms in sick people.
According to the World Health Organistion (= WHO) over 500 million people world-wide use homoeopathy, and thus homoeopathy is the second most used medical system in the world.
Probably Hippocrates (460 BC – 37 BC), a Greek physician and “father of western medicine”, already used this principle.
Samuel Hahnemann (1755 – 1843), a German physician, who was born in Leipzig, Germany, and later moved to Paris, France, where he also died, gave homoeopathy its name and increased its principle.
Samuel Hahnemann also spoke English, French, Italian, Greek, Latin, Arabic, Syriac, Chaldaic (= the language which was used by the people who in southern Mesopotamia within Babylon and it was also known as a form of Aramaic) and Hebrew.
