Homoeopathy is based on the principle that "like cures like", that is; a substance that in large doses produces certain symptoms, can be given in very tiny amounts to treat those very symptoms.

The basis for Homoeopathy has been known since the 5th Century, but it was not until the late 18th Century that a German Physician, Chemist and Scholar, Dr Samuel Hahnemann, developed the idea seriously.

His first experiment and a good example of homoeopathic treatment, was Cinchona bark. When Cinchona bark is taken internally it results in symptoms similar to that of malaria, sweating, shivering and fever, amazingly when given to a patient to treat malaria it relieves the symptoms.

The three basic Tenets of Homoeopathy are;

  1. A medicine which in large doses produces the symptoms of a disease will, in small doses, cure that disease.
  2. By extreme dilution, a medicine's curative properties are enhanced, and also any harmful side-effects are lost.
  3. Homoeopathic medicines are selected according to the individuals needs after study of the whole person according to basic temperament and responses.

Although according to the basic tenets of Homoeopathy, a person should consult a Homoeopath, in certain circumstances it is possible to use an "off the shelf" product. Here at the Maple Leaf we can supply all the common Homoeopathic preparations in many strengths.

In the UK the most common potencies available are; 6c, 30c, 200c and Mother tincture ø.

A 6c potency refers to a remedy which has been diluted 6 times by a centesimal dilution, i.e. one drop of a substance is added to 99 drops of alcohol and shaken vigorously, or succussed, this is the 1st centisimal potency, one drop of this is now taken and the process repeated as before.

Other potencies are available, but we would advise for stronger potencies to check with a Homoeopath first.

Once diluted the Homoeopathic product may be presented in a number of different formulations. The most common are Hard Tablets, Soft Tablets (Pills), Powders, Tinctures and Creams.

Remedies should be taken away from food, as strong flavours may interfere with the homoeopathics action, definite things to avoid are; curry, peppermint, coffee and tobacco, at least 10 minutes gap is advised. Touching the tablets will also interfere with their action, so place in container lid and then straight into the mouth from there. A range of suitable toothpastes and other items is also available at the Maple Leaf.
