Homeopathy treats each individual as a person and not as
a disease.
The correctly chosen homeopathic medicine sets into motion a process of healing that can continue for days, weeks, or months.
Homeopaths use the term vital force to describe the intelligence that
emanates from each
and every person. This is a concept that has been recognized universally for
thousands of years and called by many different names, including
life force, breath, chi,
ki, prana, and mana, depending upon the particular culture or tradition. This vital force is an energy force or a kind of innate wisdom, which is why homeopathy, along with acupuncture, is considered a form of
"energy medicine". The defense mechanism is that aspect of the
vital force that keeps each person in balance. Symptoms are the language of the defense mechanism.
Homeopaths spend a great deal of time learning to communicate with the defense mechanism by discovering how to interpret symptoms. Each individual is unique, and each defense mechanism communicates through its own particular set of
symptoms.
