Health is freedom. Freedom from pain, fear, and dis-ease. It is the body’s ability to function in a way that allows it to thrive and reach its fullest potential. Health is influenced by external factors and pathological circumstances must be considered when making efforts to restore wellbeing.
Symptoms are merely the body’s adaptive response, the body’s way of responding to the problem. To suppress (non life-threatening) symptoms is to further weaken the body’s ability to heal itself. Instead of suppressing these symptoms, homeopathy acts to support these attempts by using remedies that have a similar mechanism of action to assist the body in throwing off the dis-ease gently, effectively, and permanently. Hence it is called “Homeo-pathy” or “same disease.”
