Ayurveda and homeopathy are ancient medical systems. Ayurveda originated over 5000 years ago in India and focuses on balancing the doshas (energies) in the body. It uses herbs, massage, yoga and lifestyle changes. Homeopathy was developed in the late 1700s and is based on the principle of using highly diluted substances to trigger the body's natural healing abilities. While research on their effectiveness is limited, proponents believe they can treat illnesses with minimal side effects when administered properly.

24. INTRODUCTION TO HOMEOPATHY
Homeopathy = homois (similar) + pathos
(suffering)
It's based on the principle that substances that
cause symptoms in healthy people can be used
in extreme dilution to treat illnesses that cause
the same symptoms (likes cure like)
Basically homeopathy allows the body to heal
itself by triggering body’s natural immune
response
Eg: caffeine can treat insomnia

25. ORIGIN OF HOMEOPATHY
Homeopathy began in the late 1700s, developed by a German doctor
named Samuel Hahnemann.
Hahnemann was dissatisfied with the often-severe treatments that
were being used and was looking for a more natural way to treat
illnesses
He discovered the law of similar after he consumes cinchona bark
extract (used to cure malaria) which produces the same symptoms as
malaria
Homeopathy achieved its greatest popularity in the 19th century.
The first homeopathic schools opened in 1830
Eventually homeopathy reached all over Europe, United States and
Asia

26. HOMEOPATHY IN MALAYSIA
 Homeopathy in Malaysia was said to be brought here by the
Colonel A.S. Rajah, a British Army Officer who later spread the
new idea to Mr. Burhanuddin Al Helmy
 In 1977 Dr Nik Omar bin Haji Nik Daud, a young professional
who qualified homeopathy at Pakistan Homeopathy Medical
College in 1975 and further his education at London, UK came
back to Malaysia in 1977 and started a first complete
Homeopathic Clinic in Kota Bharu, Kelantan.
 On 21 Januari 2001 Malaysian Homeopathic Medical Council
was founded
 Practitioners must register with M.P.H.M

27. Grafting
 Unmedicated pills or sugar pills are dipped in the remedy and dried. The
essence is now transferred to the pill
 A pill with essence of remedy allowed to come in contact with other sugar
pills whereby other pills also acquire the essence
Often the mother tincture is diluted over the 12 C dilution. Hence there is no
molecule of the actual substance remains( only water)
But homeopaths claim that the energy is transferred from the mother
tincture in every dilution

28. HERBS

29.  Easy to administer
 No or minimal side effects as the
remedy contains no toxic substance
 Effective as it triggers natural healing
process
 Cheap compared to conventional
medicine
BENEFITS

30.  Minimal to zero side effects
 This is because homeopathy remedies are
ultrahigh-diluted until there is no any active
ingredients
 Some patients may experience ‘healing crisis’
where their condition gets worse before getting
better. This is due to the process of toxin
removal from body
 Some remedies may not be sufficiently diluted
and contain biologically active ingredients.
These ingredients may cause allergies to some
patients
SIDE EFFECTS

31. TREATMENT SESSION
 CONSULTATION
Patients will be asked about their medical history,
diet, lifestyle, physical and emotional state
 PRESCRIPTION
Suitable remedy will be prescribed
Every remedy is made to suit the patient’s individual
symptoms

32. SCIENTIFIC PROVE
Currently there are no good quality studies
Water memory investigated by French professor
Jacques Benveniste shows that homeopathically treated
water has positive effect on living cells compared to
untreated water
Randomized controlled trial shows homeopathy is no
better than PLACEBO
Homeopathy can cure acute ear infection in children
(International Journal Of Clinical Pharmacology And
Therapeutics)

34. Conclusions
 Evidence supporting/validating the
tridosha theory of Ayurveda looks
promising
 Additional research needs to be conducted
in the area of Ayurvedic herbs
 Biochemical, pharmacological, and toxological
especially
 Homeopathy not only treats the symptoms of a
disease but also tries to root out the underlying
cause
