World Homeopathy Day is celebrated on April 10 every year to commemorate the birth anniversary of German physician Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy.
This day is marked to celebrate and honour homeopathy and its contributions in treating the patients across the globe.
Dr Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy was born in Paris on April 10, 1755.
He developed the principle of 'similia similibus curentur', meaning 'let like cure like', in the late 18th century. Thus, homeopathy works on the principle of "like cures like".
This year will be the 268th birth anniversary of Dr. Hahnemann.
Homeopathy is a holistic approach to healing that involves substances to stimulate the body's natural healing processes.
Every year a particular theme is chosen to celebrate the World Homeopathy Day. This year, the theme is "One Health, One Family." It aims to promote the homoeopathic treatment among the people through the neighbourhood family physicians.
Last year, the theme for World Homeopathy Day was 'Homeopathy: People's Choice for Wellness'.
Homoeopathy is as popular as Ayurveda in India, both of which fall under the purview of the AYUSH ministry.
