The Core Principle: “Like Cures Like”
Homeopathy is based on the idea that a substance which causes symptoms in a healthy person may, in very small doses, help support someone experiencing similar symptoms. This concept is known as “like cures like” and is one of the key foundations of homeopathic practice.
To give an example: the herb Chamomilla (chamomile), which in its natural form can cause irritability or restlessness in some people, is used in homeopathy in a highly diluted form to help manage similar symptoms, such as irritability in children or difficulty sleeping in adults.
How Remedies Are Prepared
Homeopathic remedies are prepared from natural sources such as plants, minerals, and other naturally occurring materials. At OM Homeopathy, we dispense professionally sourced homeopathic dilutions, prepared in the clinic by
infusing them into small globules for individual use.
These are prepared through a process of repeated dilution and shaking (known as succussion), which is believed to enhance the energetic qualities of the substance while removing toxicity. The result is a gentle, non-invasive remedy, dispensed in the form of globules.
