organon of medicine
The German physician Samuel Hahnemann, popularly known as the “creator of homeopathy”, was one of the few physicians of his time who perceived mental illnesses as illnesses that required proper treatment. In his revered book ‘Organon of Medicine’, considered the cornerstone of homeopathic treatment principles, Hahnemann has defined mental health problems within Section 210 to Section 230. According to him, mental illnesses can be classified into four main types:
1. Mental illnesses derived from bodily disorders
2. Mental illnesses that appear suddenly as an acute illness in patients who were previously in a ordinary state of calm due to some exciting factors
3. Mental illnesses of doubtful origin
4. Mental illness arising from prolonged emotional causes
In line with the teachings of Hahnemann, to date, homeopaths always try to determine if a person’s mental state is caused by their physical health problem or vice versa, which in turn helps to discover the correct homeopathic medicine for them. A homeopathic doctor also seeks to find the right medication for the patient.
The mechanism of homeopathic treatment for mental well-being
- From a homeopathic point of view, the prevalence of mental illness is not simply the social setting that induces stress, but also correlates with our conventional medical system that effectively suppresses various existing physical illnesses. On the other hand, homeopaths view symptoms as adaptive efforts with respect to the body’s response to external pressure. Therefore, they firmly believe that the suppression of these defensive reactions can lead to more severe symptoms developing.
- Therefore, in homeopathy, remedy selection is always based on the theory of individualization and similarity of symptoms using a holistic approach. This is the only way in which complete mental well-being can be restored by eliminating all the signs and symptoms suffered by the patient. After all, homeopathy aims to treat the mental problem and address its underlying cause and individual susceptibility.
