Homeopathy For Arthritis

But what is homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a system of medicine founded by a German physician, Samuel Hahnemann, over two centuries ago.It is based on the law of similars, this law has ancient origins, Hindu manuscripts record it's use, Aristotle and Hippocrates refer to it's use. Hahnemann then developed the law of similars into a system of medicine, this law states, that like cures like, (similia similibus curentur).

Like cures like means that a substance taken by a healthy person which produced a certain set of symptoms, could then be given to a sick person with a similar set of symptoms to produce a healing.

Homeopathic medicine sources its remedy references from the provings of substances which have been recorded in the materia medica. All of these provings whether accidental (poisonings) or deliberate with their numerous symptoms produced, are then catalogued into a  repertory.

This repertory will be the book that the homeopath will refer to in your consultation. It's a huge tome which might alarm you, for you might begin to think that the homeopath practices his art in a constant state of ignorance if he needs to refer to a book of such proportions.

If you ever get to read a materia medica, you will realize that any substance which me might consume daily and consider to be harmless, will produce symptoms if we consume too much of it. Overdose on tomatoes, or other vegetables from the nightshade family and you may experience joint pain, itchy skin, restless sleep, sore throat, and any one of hundreds more symptoms that these plants can produce.

The foregoing provides a good argument for paying attention to your diet, eat from a wide variety of fresh foods, don't overconsume one particular food because you believe it's healthy for you.Everything in moderation is the way to approach your diet, don't go overboard.

Now back to what homeopathy/homoeopathy is all about.Hahnemann states in his Organon: "The highest ideal of cure is rapid, gentle and permanent restoration of the health, or removal and annihilation of the disease in it's whole extent, in the shortest, most reliable and most harmless way, on easy comprehensible principles".

This is not about palliation or removal of symptoms, this is about removal of the disease, it will no longer belong to you.It's never a good idea to take possession of a disease, not that being in denial about your horrendously painful joints is the way to go, but somehow when you say I have rheumatoid arthritis it tends to set up shop in your system.Better to take a more positive view, don't accept disease labels, accept only health. 

Restoring health, what this means is that there should be an inward improvement whenever an outward symptom has been resolved.So if suddenly your painful joints don't bother you, but inwardly you still feel depressed, irritable, and angry, this is not restoration of health, this is palliation of manifesting symptoms only.Superficially things may seem to be OK, but the disease process continues undisturbed.

How does homeopathy work, well, after a long and intensive case has been taken  , the homeopath may give you a remedy which has been chosen with great care to match your entire person, not just your gouty toe. After taking the remedy you may experience a very painful aggravation of your condition, you ring the homeopath and blurt out your indignation at their incompetence, the homeopath says that's great. This is what is called a healing crisis,and if this occurs it is great, for the remedy is a match for you.

Sometimes it may take a while before an homeopath can get to the right remedy,for patients are often reluctant to be spontaneous in answering questions. You may become infuriated because you went to see a homeopath about your gouty toe, and they start asking questions about your emotional life, you may ask what's this got to do with my toe. Actually it has a lot to do with it, for our diseased state comes from within, and a well chosen remedy can resolve much more than a gouty toe problem.

According to homeopathic law,cure takes place from the center to the circumference, from above downwards, from more important to less important organs, from the head to the hands and feet and in the reverse order of their appearance. so while your gouty toe may not be healed first, emotionally you will notice a huge shift from within,and you are then on the road to cure.
