Homotoxicology is an approach to healing that integrates the treatment principles of homoeopathy with the diagnostic approach of allopathic medicine. The goal of treatment in homotoxicology is to detoxify the body and restore the body's natural biorhythms. The practise of homotoxicology incorporates the philosophy that each human being possesses an innate self-healing mechanism that can prevent and treat illness. Homotoxicology combines modern conventional medicine, or allopathic medicine, with a holistic approach.
