The Materia Medica is a book that lists all of the homeopathic single
remedies and their symptoms.
Here's a
little more detail:
Most remedies
that are commonly used are listed in the homeopathic Materia Medica.
The Materia Medica lists the single remedy and the symptom picture
that fits each remedy.
Because
homeopathic medicines work on all systems of the body, mental,
physical and emotional guiding symptoms are listed in the following
order of importance:
-
Emotional
-
Mental
-
Physical
Each physical
system is detailed from most important to least important:
-
Mind &
Head
-
Each
individual "part" of the body from head to toe (eyes, ears,
throat, stomach, etc.)
-
Each
system from inside out (respiratory, circulatory, extremities,
skin)
-
Modalities (what makes it better or worse)
These symptoms
listed in the Materia Medica are called guiding systems because they
guide you to the right remedy.
It is important
to remember that you don't have to exhibit ALL of the symptoms for
the remedy to be the correct one. The remedy that matches the
majority of the symptoms is probably the one you need. |
