Définition

  • Homeopathy, which draws its name from the Greek homoios (similar) and pathos (suffering), is a 200 year-old system of therapeutics founded by German scientist Samuel Hahnemann. Homeopathic treatment was a popular alternative to orthodox medicine both in Europe and the United States in the mid- to late 19th century, and organized homeopathy soon followed with the founding of the American Institute of Homeopathy (AIH) in 1844.
