Holistic Medicine: A broad approach to understanding health and illness, taking into consideration the many aspects and complexities of an individual’s life as well as their physiology
Homeopathy: Homeopathy (homeopathic medicine) is a system of medicine founded in the early 19th century by a German physician, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann (1775-1843). Classical homeopathy is based on three main principles: the law of similars, the single medicine, and the minimum dose. The law of similars states that a disease is cured by a medicine that creates symptoms similar to those the patient is experiencing. The principle of the single remedy states that a single medicine should cover all the symptoms the patient is experiencing: mental, emotional, and physical. Finally the minimum dose principle dictates that remedies are given in very infinitesimal diluted dosages.
Naturopathic Medicine: A comprehensive body of knowledge and an approach to healthcare derived from the latest scientific understanding of the human body, as well as from very long-standing traditional systems of healing.
