Homeopathy
Homeopathy is a system of alternative medicine based on the principle of "like cures like," which posits that a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can be used to treat similar symptoms in a sick person when diluted to extremely small doses. Homeopathic remedies are prepared through a process of serial dilution and succussion (vigorous shaking), which proponents believe enhances the therapeutic properties of the substances while minimizing toxicity.
