Dr.  Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), a German physician, is celebrated as the visionary founder of homoeopathy, an alternative medical system. Disillusioned with the often brutal and ineffective treatments prevalent in his era, Hahnemann sought a gentler, more scientific path to healing. His groundbreaking principle, “like cures like” (similia similibus curantur), emerged from his self-experimentation with cinchona bark, observing that a substance causing symptoms in a healthy person could, in highly diluted forms, cure similar symptoms in the ill. This foundational insight, meticulously detailed in his “Organon of the Healing Art,” established homeopathy’s core tenets: individualized treatment, minimal dosing, and the unique process of “potentization,” laying the groundwork for a therapeutic approach that continues globally today.
