    Hahnemann Advance Method

    Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, developed advanced methods during the last 10 years of his life to speed up the cure process and minimize uncomfortable symptoms. He found that putting remedies in water made the treatment gentler, avoided aggravations, and sped up the cure time. Unfortunately, when Hahnemann died, the manuscript describing his 6th edition and LM potency method was lost for 100 years. By the time it was rediscovered, homeopathic practice was already established, so practitioners were reluctant to change methods.

    Hahnemann’s Advanced Methods  

    “The highest ideal of cure is the rapid, gentle and


    permanent restoration of health; that is, lifting and annihilation of the disease in its entire
    extent in the shortest, most reliable, and least disadvantageous way, according to clearly
    realizable principles.”
    Samuel Hahnemann
    Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, was a Renaissance genius who was gifted in
    many fields: he was a master pharmacist who developed procedures still used in pharmacy
    today, a skilled Linguist and translator who was fluent in seven languages, and the forerunner
    of today’s natural healers. Decades before Koch and Pasteur, he understood the principles of
    contagious illnesses and successfully treated the deadly epidemics which ravaged Europe in the
    first half of the nineteenth century. He was a true visionary whose understanding of the
    energetic basis of health and healing anticipated by a century the paradigm of matter as energy
    in modern physics. Allopathic/conventional medicine has barely begun to incorporate an
    understanding of the mind-body connection, which Hahnemann delineated nearly two
    centuries ago.

    During the last 10 years of his life, Hahnemann was trying to find a way to speed up the process
    of cure with homeopathy while at the same time minimizing the sometimes uncomfortable
    homeopathic aggravations, or intensification of symptoms, which were typical of homeopathy
    at that point with the 4th edition methods of giving remedies in dry doses.
    Although Hahnemann’s personal practice grew immensely beyond the stage of the 4th edition
    Organon, homeopathy as a whole did not. Most practitioners today are still practicing by the
    rules laid down in 1828-1829. This is more than strange, as the next 14 years of Hahnemann's
    career were the most productive of his life, and in these years Hahnemann developed the
    Advanced Methods, as he was constantly searching for a way to improve in his methods.
    There are six editions of the Organon. The Organon is the masterwork in which Samuel
    Hahnemann laid out both the theoretical framework and practical application of homeopathy,
    still employed today. The Advanced Methods of the 5th and 6th edition of the Organon are
    artistic methods that must be individualized to the patient, with no preconceived schedules or
    protocols. The homeopath needs to remain flexible and alert, as the daily dose may be correct
    in one case, while a dose a week or a month is sufficient for other cases. Just as the totality of
    the individual is important to each case, so is the individuality of remedy management of
    utmost importance to bringing a patient to cure.

    As Hahnemann evolved in his methodology in the 5th and 6th edition of the Organon with
    putting the remedies in water, he found it to be gentler for the patient, and could almost
    entirely avoid the homeopathic aggravations for the patient associated with the 4th edition
    method of prescribing. He also found that liquid solutions had a stronger effect on the vital
    force (or chi) of the patient (this is the life force that is individual to each person, and this vital
    force works relentlessly to protect against negative influences/triggers that can cause dis-ease
    in the mind and body). Not only that, he discovered that the process of cure was speeded up so
    that it only took one-quarter or one-third as long.
    Unfortunately, Hahnemann died while the manuscript of the 6th edition (which outlined the LM
    potency) was at the printer; and the manuscript was lost for nearly 100 years. It was discovered
    in an attic in Germany between the two World Wars. By the time the 6th edition became widely
    available, the practice of homeopathy was well-established. Homeopaths were reluctant to
    abandon the method they already knew. Thus the 6th edition with the LM potency* and
    method is still minimally unknown by many Homeopathic school and practitioners, except in
    India.

    please see Dr. Luc's Human Condition Critical and Musculoskeletal Diseases

    Rima Handley's A Homeopathic Love Story and In Search of the Later Hahnemann provide an
    excellent description of Hahnemann's later years and practice, of interest to the layperson and
    professional alike.

    *LM and Q are the Roman numerals for the 1 in 50,000 dilution of the first step in the process
    of making these potencies.
