The name homeopathy is derived from two Greek words that mean “like disease.” The system is based on the idea that substances that produce symptoms of sickness in healthy people will have a curative effect when given in very dilute quantities to sick people who exhibit those same symptoms. Homeopathic remedies or homeopathic medicine are believed to stimulate the body’s own healing processes. People around the world require medicines at one time or the other. Some people use direct medicines like antibiotics and others opt for alternative therapies like homeopathy, ayurveda, etc.Currently the alternative healthcare industry is approximately Rs 7000 crore of which Homeopathy accounts for 14% of around Rs. 630 crore. Homeopathy has also been witnessing 25% yearly growth from the past 5 years. Homeopathy is the revolutionary, natural medical science. It is gentle and an effective system of medicine. The remedies are prepared from natural substances to precise standards and work by stimulating the body’s own healing power. Homoeopathy does not treat superficially by just driving away the symptoms but heals the patient from within. Undoubtedly, homoeopathy is the medicine of the future.
