A system of medicine that uses very tiny amounts of natural substance to stimulate the body's own healing response. In classical homeopathy, used at Bernal Homeopathy, one homeopathic remedy is selected for the person, rather than different remedies for different symptoms or conditions. This is done according to the like cures like principle, and the strategy of minimum dose, nudging the body back into balance. This process is always individualized, in terms of remedy, potency, and dosage.
Homeopathy is its own system of natural medicine. Homeopathic remedies are manufactured in FDA-regulated pharmacies, in a very specific way, of serial dilution. The ultra-high dilution made from substances is then coated onto a sugar pellet. When you put the pellet on to a mucous membrane (like under the tongue), the homeopathic remedy goes directly into the body.
Homeopathy is a system of natural healing. It is a subset of what most Naturopathic Doctors study in school. Homeopaths like myself have gone to homeopathy school, which is solely the system of classical or constitutional homeopathy, which is how the system of homeopathy was developed by the German MD Samuel Hahnemann over 200 years ago.
No. Homeopathy is a different system of medicine, utilizing nano-doses of substances, which can be anything including plants, minerals, and even animal sources, chosen according to a set of principles for the individual. The homeopath has to study materia medica for hundreds or thousands of homeopathic remedies to practice competently, and it is the homeopaths job to guide a client through the holistic natural healing process, which is dynamic and very different from conventional medicine, and even from herbal medicine.
Homeopathic medicines are made in FDA regulated pharmacies, utilizing natural substances, which are sequentially diluted and potentized.
Bernal Homeopathy stocks remedies mostly from Hahnemann Laboratories in San Rafael.
