Proving - explaining its homeopathic significance
© Christine Wyndham-Thomas
Last month, for the very first time, I introduced you to the remedy Sulphur and, in so doing, gave you a glimpse of what Homeopathy is really all about. You would have seen, albeit in brief, from that article how one remedy can help heal the whole person by taking into account the total symptoms of that person.
This may not make a lot of sense to you at present but before anything is made into an homeopathic remedy it is first tested out by volunteers under special circumstances. The results from such a testing over a period of time are recorded - every little detail is noted: from your eyes, to your mouth, to your characteristic profile; every little detail is noted and recorded.
Then, when someone becomes ill or suffers a dis-ease, the symptoms are noted, and if those symptoms match a particular testing, then what ever substance was used for that testing is then made into an homeopathic remedy to effect a cure.
This is what is meant in homeopathic terms as a 'proving'.
