HOMEOPATHY

"Vishasya Vishmoshadhi" proclaims an ancient Sanskrit saying. The science of Homoeopathy rest on this solid foundation of experience and wisdom of the ancient seers of India" Lets like be treated by likes", Simiilia Simibus Curentur" was rediscovered in the 18th century by the father of the system of Homoeopathy, the great German Physician Dr. Christian Federick Samuel Hanhemann, who lived between 1755 and 1843. He did M.D. from Erlangen University in 1779. He gave up his lucrative practice at the height of his reputation; realizing that the old school of treatment (allopathy) created more and more side-effects than curing diseases and so he took to translation of medical books. While translating Cullen's Treatise on Materia Medica he came across a statement that Cinchona bark cured Intermittent fever because of its tonic action on stomach. He disagreed with it and decided to conduct experiments upon himself and members of his family to find out the truth. He took four drachmas of the tincture of Cinchona himself and to his surprise found the symptoms of the intermittent fever and sweat developing. When the drug was discontinued the symptoms disappeared. Hanhemann sensed here a law that taught him to recognize that in the effect that a substance has on the healthy organism is to be found the curative power for similar disease symptoms. He repeated this experiment with other drugs for six years and came to conclusion that the curative powers of drugs depended upon their capability to produce similar symptoms in healthy persons. Homoeopathy, thus is a specialized method of drug therapy employed to cure the natural suffering of a person by the administration of drugs which have been experimentally proved to possess power of producing similar artificial suffering or symptoms of disease in healthy human beings.

Homoeopathy was introduced into India in 1810 when German missionaries started distributing homoeopathic medicines. When Dr. Honigberger a disciple of founder of Homoeopathy, Dr. S. Hanhemann, came to India in 1839 to treat Maharaja Ranjit Singh and thereafter settled in India. Homoeopathy spread widely in India due to its inherent salient features, which are in tune with ancient Indian philosophical principles, Indian immediately took to this new system of medicine and has progressed steadily in the country. The process of official recognition of Homoeopathy started with the passing of first resolution by the Central Legislative Assembly in 1937 followed by another resolution in 1948 but it was only in 1952 that Homoeopathy started getting recognition in different States. In Delhi, the "Delhi Homoeopathic Act" was passed by the first Delhi Legislative Assembly in 1956 which was introduced by the then Minister for Health, Dr. Yudhvir Singh. This bill gave official recognition to Homoeopathy in Delhi and established Delhi Homeopathic Board for the Registration of Homoeopathic doctors and regulation of Homoeopathic education inn Delhi.

Considering the efficacy, long term cure, low cost, safe oral administration and easy availability of medicines, contribution of Homoeopathy towards the improvement of health services in Delhi is of prime importance for the inhabitants of the metropolis with ever increasingly aware and concerned about medicinal risks, side effect, the use of Homoeopathic medicines has gained ever-increasing significance. Thousands of patients' worldwide declare that through Homeopathy their health has improved and / or their illness has been cured.
