Paradigm Shift
I am inviting you to suspend the way you think of disease & healing just for a bit as I explain how homeopathy works!
Homeopathy works on the premise that the body is intelligent and is always trying to heal itself. Healing is the body's attempt to bring itself back to balance.
in contrast Conventional medicine may suppress these symptoms with medication, but homeopathy aims to understand them as expressions of the body's healing efforts.
Unlike conventional medical diagnoses, which often focus on identifying specific diseases or conditions based on laboratory tests, imaging, and clinical criteria, homeopathy operates on a different principle. Homeopathy is primarily guided by the unique and individualized symptoms that a person presents with at a given moment.
Here's how this key distinction works:
Individualized Assessment:

In homeopathy, the practitioner conducts a detailed assessment of the person's symptoms, taking into account not just physical complaints but also emotional and mental aspects. This assessment aims to understand the person as a whole, recognizing that individuals may experience similar illnesses differently. The first session normally takes an hour and a half.
Dynamic Treatment: Homeopathy recognizes that symptoms are not just isolated manifestations of disease but are expressions of the body's attempt to restore balance.

We try to work with the body to bring about healing.
Instead of suppressing symptoms, as is often the case with conventional medicine, homeopathy seeks to support and encourage the body's self-healing mechanisms.
Holistic Consideration: Homeopathy considers the totality of a person's symptoms and aims to address the root cause of their health issues, which may extend beyond the physical realm to include emotional and mental aspects.

In summary, while conventional medicine relies on standardized diagnostic categories and treatments, homeopathy takes a highly individualized and symptom-centered approach. It recognizes that symptoms are the body's way of communicating its needs and aims to facilitate the body's natural healing processes rather than merely suppressing or managing symptoms.
This personalized approach is one of the defining features of homeopathic practice.
In homeopathy, the process of uncovering and addressing the root cause of a health issue often involves peeling away layers of medication and symptoms. This approach is known as "Hering's Law of Cure" and is a fundamental concept in homeopathic practice. Here's an explanation of how it works:
Layered Nature of Illness:

Homeopathy recognizes that chronic health conditions often develop in layers over time. Initially, the body responds to a disturbance or stress by producing symptoms. These symptoms can be physical, emotional, or mental. Conventional medicine may suppress these symptoms with medication, but homeopathy aims to understand them as expressions of the body's healing efforts.
Suppression vs. Cure:

When conventional medications are used to suppress symptoms, it can provide temporary relief, but it doesn't address the underlying cause of the illness. The illness may seem to disappear temporarily, but it often reappears or manifests in a different form because the root cause remains unaddressed.

Uncovering Layers:
Homeopathic treatment seeks to reverse this process. By carefully selecting a remedy that matches the person's current symptoms, the homeopath aims to stimulate the body's vital force (the innate healing power) to push the illness outward. This may cause older or suppressed symptoms to re-emerge briefly. These older symptoms are considered to be part of the "layers" of the illness.
Direction of Cure: Hering's Law posits that healing should progress in a specific order: from within outwards, from more vital to less vital organs, and in reverse chronological order of appearance. This means that as treatment progresses, you may observe that older or deeper-seated symptoms resurface and are gradually resolved.
