Homeopathy in Indonesia was introduced by Dr. Karel Heden in 1817.
The name Homeopathy comes from the Greek Homoios which means similar and pathos which means suffering.
Homeopathy drugs are made from natural ingredients such as plants, minerals, and animals.
The basic principle of homeopathy is a similar healing law as similar, namely that drugs that cause symptoms in healthy people will cure the same symptoms in sick people.
Homeopathy drugs are highly taken in small quantities and are diluted repeatedly.
Homeopathy can be used to treat various medical conditions, including allergies, headaches, flu, and sports injuries.
Homeopathy can also be used as a prevention treatment to improve the immune system and general health.
There are many homeopathy clinics in Indonesia that offer this alternative medicine, especially in urban areas such as Jakarta, Surabaya and Bandung.
Homeopathy treatment usually takes longer than conventional treatment, but has fewer side effects.
Although homeopathy is not officially recognized by the Indonesian Ministry of Health, the use of homeopathy drugs in Indonesia is increasing along with increasing public awareness of alternative medicine.
