Homeopathy

Homeopathy was founded in 1796 by Dr Samuel Hahnemann in Germany. The Homeopathic principle states "Let Like be cured by Like"; which means that a substance that can bring up certain symptoms when taken by a healthy person has the potential to treat those very symptoms in an ill/ diseased person. It is considered as a Complementary system of medicine which focuses on stimulating and supporting the immune system to bring about cure and healing. The remedies have natural sources. They are prepared to be very safe and suitable for all ages, including infants, pregnant women, and older adults.

With the Integrative Medicine practice of Homeopathy every person is taken as a holistic entity – taking into account the totality of a person's body, mind, and spirit as one single unit. Therapies address the unique constitution of every individual and hence are customized according to that unique Mind-Body constitution.  Homeopathy is particularly helpful for our more sensitive patients. We have several trusted practices we refer to and collaborate with depending on a patient’s geographical location, including Chetna Center in our San Ramon office suite and the Hahneman Clinic in Point Richmond.
