How does homoeopathy work?

Homoepathic remedies help to stimulate the body's own healing ability. The remedies are chosen to treat the whole person including their mental, emotional and physical symptoms. The homoeopath take a detailed history from the patient in order to build a full picute of their symptoms and then matches this with a similar remedy.Remedies are made from a wide variety of natural substances that exist in the world around us. They can be made from plants, trees, herbs, insects, animals or minerals. A small amount of the original substance is prgressively diluted. Between each dilution the substance is also shaken vigorously. This is to release the natural healing properties of the substances. Hahnemann discovered that the more substances were diluted, the powerful they became.
