World Homeopathy Day
« on: April 10, 2025, 07:42:19 AM »
Hi everyone,

Today is World Homeopathy Day...

https://www.ndtv.com/offbeat/world-homeopathy-day-2025-history-significance-and-why-its-celebrated-8125613#pfrom=home-ndtv_offbeat

*******
World Homeopathy Day 2025: Observed annually on April 10, World Homeopathy Day commemorates the birth anniversary of Dr Christian Friedrich Samuel Hahnemann, the German physician who founded homoeopathy. The day serves as a tribute to homoeopathy's contributions to the field of medicine and aims to raise awareness about this alternative system of healing.

What Is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is an alternative medical practice based on the principle of "like cures like." It suggests that substances causing symptoms in healthy individuals can, in minute doses, treat similar symptoms in those who are unwell. Though its roots trace back to ancient Greek medicine, it was in the 19th century that homoeopathy gained widespread recognition across Europe and North America.

Practitioners use highly diluted natural substances-often derived from plants and minerals- to stimulate the body's innate healing ability.

Cheers.

Sriram,

I believe the 14th of April is International Moment of Laughter Day(true, look it up), which follows nicely from your World Homeopathy Day.. Seems appropriate to me ;D

It'd be really interesting to know what those were.

What Is Homeopathy?

A practice that has repeatedly been demonstrated as ineffective at the medicinal claims it makes, which appears intended to separate desperate people and their money.
