Homeopathy is vitalistic medicine--it influences the Vital Force, otherwise known as the Qi (Chi) in Chinese Medicine, or the Prana in Ayurvedic (Indian) Medicine.
In Quantum Physics, it is known as the Electro-Magnetic Field.
The Vital Force is an invisible, immaterial, yet dynamic force which animates the physical body. It is the unifying factor of a person; it represents a synergistic whole which is greater than the sum of its parts.
The homeopathic remedy stimulates the Vital Force, to promote a healing response in a person. Once the Vital Force is stimulated, the person’s own immune system can easier find a the path to a health.
“The essence of illness is a disorder of the Vital Force.”
Samuel Hahnemann, founder of Homeopathy
