Homeopathy - Introduction - The Vital Force

An underlying principle in homeopathy revolves around "The Vital Force". Hahnemann believed that The Vital Force is an energetic unseen force, energy, or vibration, that represents a person's health. This concept is similar to what modern medicine refers to as "homeostasis".  Our vital force is likened to prana, chi or qi in other cultures. If this Force is disturbed, illness can result. In order to maintain a healthy "Vital Force", homeopathic remedies can be used to stimulate this innate healing mechanism by awakening its powers.
