Homeopathy is a holistic system of medicine that originated in the late eighteenth century by German physician Samuel Hahnemann (1755–1843). The name homeopathy is derived from two Greek words that mean "like disease." The system is based on the idea that substances that produce symptoms of sickness in healthy people will have a curative effect when given in very dilute quantities to sick people who exhibit those same symptoms. Homeopathic remedies are believed to stimulate the body's own healing processes. Homeopaths use the term "allopathy," or "different than disease," to describe the use of drugs used in conventional medicine to oppose or counteract the symptom being treated.
The purpose of homeopathy is the restoration of the body to homeostasis, or healthy balance, which is its natural state. The symptoms of a disease are regarded as the body's own defensive attempt to correct its imbalance, rather than as enemies to be defeated. Because symptoms are regarded as positive evidence of the body's inner intelligence, a remedy designed to stimulate this internal curative process is taken rather than one that suppresses symptoms.
