Homoeopathy – A Science of Individualised Healing
Homoeopathy is a scientific system of medicine founded by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann in the late 18th century. Based on the eternal law of nature — “Similia Similibus Curentur” (Let likes be cured by likes) — it treats the patient as a whole rather than focusing only on the disease.
Principles of Homoeopathy
Law of Similars : A substance that can produce symptoms in a healthy person can cure similar symptoms in a sick person.
Vision
To promote a future where Homoeopathy stands as a pillar of integrative healthcare, blending traditional wisdom with modern science for the well-being of humanity.
Individualisation : Every patient is unique; remedies are chosen according to the person’s totality of symptoms — physical, mental, and emotional.
Minimum Dose : Potentised medicines are administered in the smallest effective dose to stimulate the body’s own healing power.
Single Remedy : Only one remedy is given at a time, corresponding to the patient’s total symptom picture.
Scope of Homoeopathy
Homoeopathy offers a gentle, safe, and effective mode of treatment for:
Acute and chronic diseases
Psychosomatic and lifestyle disorders
Preventive and palliative care
Integrative management, along with modern diagnostic and research tools
Homoeopathic Education
Basic sciences (Anatomy, Physiology, Pathology, Microbiology)
Clinical subjects (Medicine, Surgery, Obstetrics & Gynaecology)
Homoeopathic philosophy, materia medica, and repertory
Advanced studies at the MD (Hom) level focus on research, clinical training, and contribution to global health through holistic medicine.
Scientific Relevance and Research
Modern homoeopathy integrates classical philosophy with evidence-based approaches. Clinical trials, molecular studies, and data analytics are continually enhancing its credibility and understanding in areas such as immunomodulation, nano-pharmacology, and epigenetics.
