Example text
Where regular medicine was striving to declare its independence from the patient, homeopathy instead reinforced the role of the patient as a (junior) partner in the diagnostic process. Hahnemann explicitly notes that the patient’s ‘own account of his sensations is most to be trusted’ adding only the parenthetical caveat ‘(unless he is feigning illness)’ (Hahnemann 1913). With its gentle methods and careful attention to each patient’s individual experience of ill health, homeopathy proved enormously attractive to a public grown weary of the harsh methods and sometimes dismissive manners of regular practitioners.
