| homeopathy |
A Western system of medicine that is based on the principle that 'like cures like' ?that is, the same substance that in large doses produces the symptoms of an illness cures it when administered in very small doses. Homeopathic physicians believe that the more dilute the remedy, the greater its potency. Therefore, homeopaths treat illness by using small doses of specially prepared plant extracts and minerals to stimulate the defence mechanisms and healing processes of the body.
