4) The Use of a Potentised Remedy Hahnemann’s belief that disease stemmed from a disturbance to the energetic field of the body, led him to believe that the best cure could be effected with the use of energised medicine. Tinctures which form the basis for the remedies are made mostly from plants or minerals. Herbal tinctures are usually made by soaking or boiling; while tinctures from minerals are obtained by grinding the substance in a mortar and pestle from which a solution is then made. Homeopathic remedies used by most practitioners are produced in
either the decimal (X) scale or the centesimal (C) scale. The decimal
scale (dilution of 1:10) is produced by initially mixing a drop of
the tincture with 9 drops of ethanol. The centesimal scale (dilution
of 1:100) is produced by initially mixing two drops of the tincture
with 98 drops of ethanol. Another scale (the LM scale) represents
a dilution of 1:50,000 and is prepared in a complex way. However,
all scales undergo a progressive series of dilutions with shaking
or “succussing” the bottle of medicine in between each
dilution. Homeopaths believe that this process imparts a dynamic
aspect to the remedies which is then used to match the dynamic aspect
of the Vital Force. |
