What are the physical, mental and emotional aspects of homoeopathy?

Homoeopathy is based on the philosophy that the body, mind and emotions are not really separate and distinct, but are actually fully integrated. Based on this perspective, a homoeopath seeks a remedy that fits all of a patient’s physical and psychological symptoms. Although some people’s symptoms may be complex, a well-trained homoeopath will know which symptoms should be specially noted, and can choose an effective, individualized remedy.
Prolonged emotional stress can cause physical problems, like upset stomach, difficulty in digesting foods, poor nutrient assimilation, weaker immune system, sleeplessness, etc. The opposite is also true. Illness and physical problems can result in anxiety or emotional uneasiness. Therefore, it is important for a homoeopath to conduct an in-depth interview of a patient to ensure a proper, all encompassing remedy.

What are the three levels of homoeopathic therapy?

Level 1: First Aid
Homoeopathy can be used in first aid to safely treat common ailments and occurrences, such as sprains and bruises, minor burns, skin irritations and reactions (including poison ivy, diaper rash and insect bites), teething pain, etc.
Level 2: Acute Homoeopathy
Acute health problems are those in which the symptoms will eventually go away on their own. They are temporary conditions, such as colds, flu, coughs, sprains, etc. A homoeopathic remedy can be useful and attractive because it is safe, gentle and has no harmful side effects. Homoeopathy can also be used to assist sensitive conditions such as pregnancy.
Level 3: Constitutional Homoeopathy
Constitutional homoeopathy refers to the treatment of a person as a whole, including past and present symptoms. When accurately implemented, homoeopathic constitutional care can elicit a profound healing response. Homoeopathy can be extremely effective in treating chronic and long-term health problems. Recurrent ear infections, for example, can be treated with a homoeopathic remedy for a longer period of time to strengthen the body’s immune system and to prevent future occurrences.
