Introduction to Homeopathy

Overview

Homeopathy uses very small doses of remedies prepared from natural substances.

Homeopaths follow a rule of nature called the Law of Similars which states "like cures like," or that a medicine can cure the sick if it can cause sickness in the healthy.

Samuel Hahnemann, a German doctor and chemist, utilized the law of similars to develop homeopathic remedies in the 1800's, and by 1900, about twenty percent of US doctors were homeopaths.

Due to political and social changes, homeopathy fell out of favor, but due to the resurgance in popularity of natural healing methods, it is once again gaining popularity.

Program Description

Students will gain a working knowledge of the Homeopathic practice beginning with the history of Homeopathy.

They will understand the theory behind the use of homeopathic remedies and when they are applicable to acute as well as chronic cases.

The goal is to train students to educate clients in homeopathic usage and self-care for symptoms of healing crisis.

They will gain an understanding of dosing, common remedies, and prescribing Homeopathic compounds.

Each student will prepare a Homeopathic first aid kit and learn to prescribe homeopathic remedies for acute illnesses.

Bach Flower Essences will also be discussed.

Classes are held at the Cleveland campus. This class is a required course of study for the HHP Program, but is also open to the general public, so other interested students may apply for acceptance into this training program.
