What is homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a healing system which uses small doses of substances found in nature to stimulate the body's own ability to get well.  The selection of the remedy is based upon an interview with the patient during which we ask in detail about the nature of the symptoms.  We are looking for a precise picture of what the symptoms feel like and how they are experienced.   This is matched with what is known about the homeopathic remedies to give the prescription.

Additional introduction to homeopathy and its history is posted on the website of the National Center for Homeopathy, accessible at:  http://www.homeopathic.org.htm
