Homeopathy

David A. Johnson, Certified Classical Homeopath

Homeopathy is a 200 year old system of healing whose underlying philosophy is holistic. Homeo means 'same or similar' and pathy means 'disease'. Derived from the plant, mineral and animal kingdoms, homeopathic remedies are capable of producing symptoms in healthy people, yet also help to resolve those same symptoms in people who are sick.

The homeopathic approach begins with the understanding that a person is an integrated whole, and in response to the challenges of life is engaged in an ongoing dynamic effort to maintain balance. Under normal circumstances one responds to and 'rebounds' from various stresses, hopefully a stronger and wiser person. However, when challenges are too strong or too prolonged, one can become stuck in a sort of dysfunctional stress response, the symptoms of which are also defined as disease. Rather than suppressing the symptoms of the stress response, homeopathy turns the body towards the problem in order to provoke a healing reaction.

Based on the person's history which unfolds during a two hour interview, Mr. Johnson works to understand their unique individuality and state of imbalance. A very specific remedy is chosen which amplifies internal awareness and recognition into the state of 'dis-ease', which in turn provokes a deep and integrated self-healing reaction on physical, mental and emotional levels. By using a holistic approach, homeopathy supports the person's own innate healing potential, resulting in a safe and natural return to health.
