Homeopathic Medicine utilizes plant, animal, and mineral substances in minute doses in order to stimulate the body to heal itself. Homeopathy is one of the largest systems of medicine currently used worldwide. It was originally developed during the 18th century by the German physicial Samuel Hahneman. Unlike conventional medicine where drugs are given to work against the body and its symptoms, homeopathic remedies work with the body to help stimulate the body to heal itself.
