Homeopathy

Overview

About the Level 4 Homeopathy Certificate

Homeopathy is a holistic medicine rooted in the belief of the body’s own healing ability. Homeopathy started with German doctor Samuel Hahnemann. By looking for ways to reduce the damaging effects of medicines in the 18th century, which at the time included the use of poisons. He began experimenting on himself, observing that symptoms of caused by toxic medicines, such as mercury which was used as a treatment for syphilis were similar to those of the disease they were being used to treat. This led to the principle of "like cures like". This homeopathy home study course will offer you an overview of health both physical and emotional. It proceeds to evaluate symptoms, cures and remedies. It then examines the onset of a syndrome, explaining chronic and acute conditions. The course then offers a variety of techniques and tools used in homeopathic treatments. Finally, it concludes with recording information and why response to treatment needs to be documented.
