Classical Homeopathy:
Classical homeopathy is a holistic therapy. The individual is considered as a whole, physical as well as mental symptoms are considered when choosing a homeopathic remedy. Homeopathy also takes into consideration a person's environment and lifestyle, likes and dislikes, sensitivity to heat and cold for providing individualized treatment for the person by stimulating the body's own natural healing response.
Classical Homeopathy can be identified by the following points:
- Practiced according to the complete, original science
- Treatment of the whole person, not just certain symptoms
- Individualized treatment
- Methodology guided by classical principles
- A single medicine, given in a single dose
- Using classically proven medicines
- Comprehensive case-taking and case analysis
- Clear case management through regular follow-up appointments
- Accurate analysis of treatment results, leading to a curative strategy.
Holistic Healing:
Homeopathy is a system which involves treating the individual with highly diluted substances, given mainly in tablet form as called as globules (sometimes given in powdered form also), with the aim of triggering the body’s natural system of healing. Based on their specific symptoms, a homeopath will match the most appropriate medicine to each patient.
Holistic refers to a therapy that is used to treat the entirety of the person. It means a comprehensive and total care (physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and economic) of the person. Homeopathy is a holistic therapy. Homeopathy is an in-depth science treating the underlying causes of what ails us, not just symptoms.
These are a few of the underlying causes that are considered when being treated holistically and homeopathically: hereditary, past ailments, toxicity, drugs used (past or present) (medical or non-medical), obstacles to cure, susceptibility (always considered), behavior patterns, nutrition, and historical causes of ailments. Problems in any one of these areas could be enough to cause a person to be unhealthy (although almost implicitly, a person is unhealthy for a combination of reasons).
Even with a hereditary or incurable condition we find a person has great potential to improve their suffering when dealing with the totality of their life. Totality is what is important. If the totality of what causes our ailments is missed then only symptoms are treated. Not the person.
古典順勢療法 (Classical Homeopathy)
古典順勢療法是一種整體療法（Holistic therapy）。在選擇順勢療法藥物時，求診者會被視為一個整體，身體及心理症狀都會一併考量。順勢療法亦會考慮個人的生活環境、生活方式、喜惡、對冷熱的敏感度等，藉此刺激人體內部的自然自癒反應，提供個人化的治療。
古典順勢療法可透過以下特點來識別：
- 依循完整而原創的科學理論進行實踐
- 治療整個人，而不僅是某些特定症狀
- 個人化治療方案
- 以古典原則為指引的診療方法
- 使用單一藥物，並以單次劑量給藥
- 使用經過古典驗證的藥物
- 全面的病史問診與個案分析
- 透過定期跟進（複診）進行清晰的個案管理
- 精確分析治療結果，從而制定治癒策略
整體療癒 (Holistic Healing)
順勢療法是一套利用高度稀釋物質來治療個人的系統，藥物主要以稱為小糖丸（globules，有時亦會以粉末形式提供）的形式給予，旨在啟動人體的自然自癒系統。順勢療法醫師會根據求診者的特定症狀，為每位患者匹配最合適的藥物。
「整體」（Holistic）是指一種用於治療整個人的療法。這意味著對患者進行全面而完整的照顧（包括身體、情緒、社交、心靈及經濟層面）。順勢療法是一種整體療法，也是一門深厚的科學，著重治療引致疾病的根本原因，而非單純緩解症狀。
在進行整體及順勢療法治療時，會考量以下幾項潛在原因：遺傳、過往病史、毒性、過往或現時使用的藥物/物質（醫療或非醫療性）、治癒障礙、易感性（時刻考量）、行為模式、營養狀況以及疾病的歷史成因。上述任何一個環節出現問題，都足以導致一個人健康欠佳（儘管實際上，一個人健康欠佳往往是由多種因素共同影響所致）。
即使面對遺傳性或無法根治的疾病，我們發現只要從患者生活的整體著手，他們極有潛力大幅減輕痛苦。「整體性」（Totality）才是最關鍵的。如果忽略了導致疾病的整體因素，就只是在治療「症狀」，而非治療「人」本身。
