Homoepathy was discovered by a German Physician, Dr. Christian Friedrich Samuel
Hahnemann (1755-1843), In the late eighteen century. It is a therapetic systemof medicine premised
on the principle,"Similia Similibus Curentur" or 'let likes be treated by likes'. It is a method of
treatment for curring the patient by medicines that posses the power of producing similar symptoms in
a human being simulating the natural disease, which it can cure in the diseased person, It treates the
patients not only through holistic approach but also considers individuaistic characteristics of the
person.
This concepts of 'Law of Similars' was also enuncaited by Hippocrates and Paracelsus, but Dr. Hahnemann
established
it on a scientific footing despite the fact that he lived in an age when modern laboratory methods were
almost
unknown.
