Homeopathy is a holistic healing based on the theory that "likes cure likes". This means that a substance causing a set of symptoms in a healthy person can be used to treat a condition with similar symptoms. Homeopathic remedies are made from a variety of substances, including herbal products. Homeopathic remedies are highly diluted and therefore safe to use. Although many of the homeopathic remedies are made from herbal medicines, a homeopathic doctor is not referred to as a herbalist.
