The method of the induced pathogenesis of a homeopathic remedy in the modern development of the Hahnemann's theory of psora

In spite of great achievements in homeopathy such diseases as cancer, schizophrenia etc. continue to remain a challenge for treatment. The majority of these ailments are noted by Samuel Hahnemann in the aphorism 80 of the Organon, as manifestations of psora. In fact, they belong to the secondary psora.

The aim of this report is to demonstrate the method of the induced pathogenesis of a homeopathic remedy, based on the Hahnemann's theory of psora, and lastly the treatment of chronic pathology.

Hahnemann's theory of psora describes the evolution of chronic disease from the primary psora through to the secondary reversible psora and the secondary, irreversible psora. Development of the secondary psora is stimulated by the induced suppression (due to different methods of treatment) or by spontaneous disappearance of the symptoms of the primary psora. Thus the symptoms of the primary psora protect the organism from developing the secondary psora. The main aim of the method of the induced pathogenesis of a homeopathic remedy is to stimulate the appearance of the symptoms of the primary psora and by this way activate a process of cure. In reality, we induce a proving of a remedy, which has in its pathogenesis the symptoms of primary psora, which the patient bears. This approach is illustrated in a case of severe schizophrenia.

Thus, this method can help to treat patients with chronic diseases, especially when other approaches fail.
