Each of us is biologically unique, with unique histories, environmental influences, and patterns of being, including the way we express illness.

Samuel Hahnemann was the founder of Homeopathy.

Thus when infected by the same pathogen, your healing response, i.e. symptoms, may be different from ours. Classical homeopathy recognizes the many dimensions of the human being and aims to see the totality of a person’s illness—mental, emotional and physical. It pays particular attention to those symptoms and patterns that are idiosyncratic so that a medicine can be selected that is individualized to the person. This contrasts with pharmaceutical drugs which are aimed at common symptoms… ignoring our uniqueness.

Studies have shown that as many as half of the patients who take pharmaceutical drugs experience no benefit from them.
