HOMOEOPATHY AND ITS RELATION TO ORTHODOX MEDICINE

by

This is isopathy; it is treating a disease by its identity. Between this method and homoeopathy lies a great world of difference. Apparently near and related, they are yet so infinitely remote– these two– the one of which depends on identity, the other being based on the selection of the nearest similar.

One can agree that the homoeopathic remedy, through its antigenic action, stimulates the formation of antibodies in an organism already sensitized by diseases, just as do sera and vaccines, but here the parallelism must end.

Isopathic therapy carries with it dangers, the depth and intensity of which we are as yet unable to thoroughly understand. Biologic changes, and protoplasmic alterations, initiated by vaccines, are believed by one “old school” authority, at least, to be the hitherto hidden link in the chain of causes of carcinomatous degeneration of tissues.

Sera and vaccines are suppressive or centripetal, always driving inward; homoeopathic medication being centrifugal in action allows full expression and freedom to the suppressed and silent forces of disease, so that the vital energy, stirred from within, can drive the diseased states from the innermost parts of man outward until complete cure has been established and maintained.

  4. ORTHODOX MEDICINE AND HOMOEOPATHY In conversation with an allopath recently I twitted him by referring to the specialization craze, that it seems as if a specialist is a person who studies more and more about less and less until he knows nothing about anything. He attempted to turn the tables on me by saying that that was exactly what Homoeopathy is. My reply on the contrary was that a homoeopath learns more and more to use less and less, so that he saturates nobody....
