Abstract
Homeopathy treats clients as a unique person. Not one for all. We use the client’s way of living, moral, intellectual also are taken into account, as stated by Dr Samuel Hahnemann (1840). This way, Homeopaths reach for the right medication one should take to reach homeostasis. It includes a healthy life, exercises, organic healthy eating as a form of lifestyle. By doing in depth investigation of chronic diseases, we can treat them very aptly and can give a soothing relief to a patient. Homeopathy treats patient as a whole and not just the disease.
Introduction
To treat a chronic disease, first we have to analyze the constitution of a person as a whole, The way of living, moral, intellectual also should be taken into account, as stated by Hahnemann in aphorism 5. So, to treat a chronic disease, we should take his /her history since birth to until now. As the constitution was defined as an aggregate of hereditary characters, we can investigate in depth the cause of disease. We should found out , the suppressions , in a person from, since his birth to now. All these factors should be taken into consideration with patience, to treat a chronic disease.
As, patient will come to homoeopath by using a number of allopathic medicines, we should rule out how the disease had been suppressed, changed its route, whether the disease had changed its form, nothing but meta schematism, along with his mode of living, from birth to until now, we should investigate in detail, then we should plan the treatment.
Disease symptoms towards Homeostasis
As it takes time for some chronic diseases to prescribe a similar remedy, we should first prescribe placebo, to satisfy a patient. We should also be able to differentiate the disease symptoms, and medicinal symptoms, in this case placebo will help a lot. After taking all the symptoms, we should prescribe a remedy that is similar and given with minimum dose.
We should prescribe the anti miasmatic remedy, very carefully. Should wait and watch, to find out the action of remedy in order for the client to achieve homeostasis. Should not repeat the remedy until the first prescription has acted, otherwise vital force will not react to the same potency again, and again, it will nullify the action of medicine completely. If he was feeling better, don’t repeat. If any new symptoms, retake the case. Violent aggravation of symptoms , antidote the remedy. In this way we have to do follow up.
Diet for improvement of Health
We should advise them to follow a diet and regimen. Mainly to walk in open air, to do exercises, to eat healthy nutritious food.
Diet and regimen were obstacles to cure.
In some chronic diseases with irreversible, pathological changes we can start with 50millisemal potency.
Miasm as steps towards better Health
As stated by Hahnemann, we have to see which miasm was predominant in a disease, should start our prescription with that antimiasmatic remedy.
Should treat the miasms in, like a petals in a flower, how we will remove the petals in flower, should remove the miasms, like that in a disease.
With these anti miasmatic remedies in chronic diseases, a person’s physical quality of life index will be increased. Many diseases can be cured by treating them with patience and skill.

With HOMEOPATHY, we can create healthier generations by treating pregnant mother’s.
Final Conclusion
By treating these chronic diseases, we can prevent dangerous consequences of suppression of diseases. We can save the person to live his life in a better way with health. The physicians high and only mission is to restore the sick to health to cure as it is termed. So physicians mission is to restore a person completely to health.
Health means, not to single part, or organ whole of the person. Should consider all his living while treating him. So that we can found out the cause. If we remove the cause, effect will be subsided.
So, always treat the cause, not the effect. Physician should treat the disease perse, not the end products of disease, structural changes of the disease. Physician should consider the person, as a whole mentally and physically. Should consider all his emotions, anger, grief, jealousy etc etc. Should consider how these had affected him in his disease.
By doing in depth investigation of chronic diseases, we can treat them very aptly and can give a soothing relief to a patient.
Homeopathy is safe, more economical and individualized to any living creature. It’s practice is within Energy Medicine, Art of Holistic Healing, where each client is treated as an unique soul and being.
