HOMOEOPATHY
F
Homoeo means ‘similar’ –and Pathos
means ‘suffering’. Homoeopathy is a
system of applying medicines with similar
symptoms.
F
Homoeopathy was discovered by a German physician
Samuel CF.Hahneman in 1790.
F
Dr. Hahnemon a young German qualified
allopathic Physician in 1790, he was translating
‘cullens’Materia Medica from English
which was a specific Medicine for malarial fever
if a healthy person take it. Therefore Dr.
Hahneman, decided to ascertain truth. He took for
several days four drachms of cinchona bark juice
twice daily. The typical symptoms of intermittent
fever appeared in his body. He stated cinchona
which is used as a remedy for intermittent fever
in healthy people.
F
He published ‘Organ Of Rational Art Of
Healing’ in 1810, which he established
Homoeopathy as a system of treatment.
There
are ‘seven’ fundamental principles of
Homoeopathy.
1.
Law of similia
Homoeopathy
is a system of applying medicines with similar
systems.
Similia
, Similibus , Curenter , that is Like cure
like ; is natures Law of Cure.
2.
2 nd Principle:- Administration
of a single and only one remedy at a time.
3.
3 rd Principle :-
Smallest quantity of medicine which can bring
curentive effect.
The smallness of the dose doesn’t allow the
drug to do any
organic damage.
4.
4 th Principle of Drug proving :-
Drug proving means – administrating the drug
on healthy human beings of
different age and both sexes, with the purpose of
observing symptoms or sick
during properties from that drug.
The symptoms
produced in them are recorded and formed the
Malaria Medica. The mental symptoms, specific
sensation and other effects of drugs on the other
systems of the body can be recorded.
4.
5thPrinciple of
chronic disease:-
The real cause of
chronic diseases are ‘miasm’.
Miasm
means disease producing power.
There
are three miasms namely Psora, Syphillis, Sycosis.
Psora-
(itch)
It comes out on the skin in the form of small
vesicular eruption with itching and peculiar odor
diseases like Haemorrhag’e, psoriasis,
Eczema, piles, any mental depression, mania.
Sycosis
This
chronic miasm prduces cauliflower like growth on
the skin.
It produces hypertrophy of the tissue or organ
such as tumours, warts, corns,
Rheumatic heart and gouty
affection of the joints.
Syphillis-
This chronic miasm itself known through the
veneral disease (chancre).
It destroys the tissue, organs and bones. It
produces bone caries and ulceration.
6.
6th Principle - Drug
Dynamisation
This is the process which
liberates the inherent power of drugs. The real
curative properties remain in dormant or latent
state in crude drugs.
The quantity of Medicine is
reduced and by the process of succession or
trituration on the dynamic curative power is
liberated.
All crude animal and vegetable
substances have a greater or less amount of
medicinal power and are capable of altering mans
health.
The two drops of fresh
vegetable juice mingled with equal parts of
alcohol are diluted with 98 drops of alcohol and
potentised by means of two succession.
Whereby the first development
of power is formed and this process is repeated
through 29 more phials each of which is filled
with 99 drops of alcohol and each succeeding.
Phial is to be provided with one drop from
preceding phial (which has been
shaken twice) and is in its turn shaken twice and
in the same manner at least the
30th power is formed.
Due to minimum dose the action of medicine is
deeper longer and more wide
spread .
The
potentised medicine acts in a dynamic plane.
7.
7th Principle – Vital Force :-
Our
body is governed by a life-force which Dr.
Hahneman named as vital force.
Vital
force is a spiritual and dynamic power without
this sprit like power, the organism is dead.
Now
we come to the point
WHAT
IS HEALTH?
Balanced condition of the living organism all
vital functions are normal is called as Heralth.
WHAT
IS DISEASE?
An abnormal vital process.
A changed condition of life which is inimical to
true development of living organism.
According to Homoeopathy ---
Disease means the derangement of vital force in
the living organism.
In disease, the vital force only is primarily,
morbidly derrangerd and expresses its suffering
by abnormal sensation and functions of the
organism.
Homoeopathy treats a person as a whole and not
his organs or tissues
EXAMPLE
Allopthic idea is that the liver of this man is
enlarged so he is sick or he had swollen knee
joint so he is sick,
But Homoeopathy says that the man is sick so his
liver is enlarged or the knee is swollen.
- Now
cure means the restoration of the previous health
of the patient.
- Removal of symptoms does not mean cure.
Example-
A patient having eczema and after application of
some strong ointment it
disappears from the surface of the skin. It is
cure, No!That is not cure.
According
to Dr. Hering’s
Cure must take place from ---
A] Above downwards
B] Within outwards (center to periphery)
C] From more imporgan to less imporgans and
D] In the reverse order of the appearance of the
symptoms.
Case Taking ---
-Homoeopathy is based on the basis of totality of
symptoms.
-Totality of symptoms is simply the complex
picture of the disease person.
How
to take Case-History---
1) Present complains or chief complaints.
2)
Details of chief complaints.
