635 - 830 nanometres), was used for the experiment. Six months after the treatment, 13 of the 35 research subjects claimed that their tinnitus was significantly reduced and 2 claimed that their tinnitus was entirely absent. This research is continuing (Tauber et al, 2003). Low Level Laser Therapy was used on HIV/AIDS patients after tooth extraction procedures. A common complication of this procedure is sepsis and delayed healing of wounds due to lowered immune systems. All patients were instructed not to use any medications or supplementary treatments. After tooth extraction, the injury site was irradiated for two minutes using a low- level laser (790 nm) - GaAlAs laser. Assessment of the injury was done after eight days. The patients reported little to no pain and a comfortable postoperative period. Tissue regeneration and surgical wound healing took less time than with conventional procedures with no sepsis development (Giovanni et al, 2003). 3.3 Light Therapy and Homoeopathy 3.3.1 Homoeopathy Homoeopathy, meaning ‘like suffering’, is based on the principle of the Law of Similars. This law revolves around the existence of a similarity between the toxicological action of a substance and its therapeutic action or simply, that which causes disease can cure it. Homoeopathy originated from the experiments of Samuel Hahnemann, a physician who at the turn of the eighteenth century was dissatisfied with contemporary medicine and proceeded to ‘prove’ i.e., experimentally test, about a hundred remedies on himself and his family. In these experiments human ‘provers’, people of average health (i.e. Hahnemann and his family), took repeated doses of a specifically prepared form of substance until symptoms appeared. The symptoms observed with certain regularity in the majority of ‘provers’ were considered to express the characteristic pathogenic effects of the particular drug. When the symptom complex of any spontaneous illness was compared with the artificial symptom-complexes produced by the drug, a close resemblance between the disease picture and the picture of the effects of the drug on healthy people often existed. Hahnemann found that the drug whose symptoms most closely resemble the symptom-complex of the sick patient were found clinically to be the most successful drug for the treatment for that condition. For example: The drug Cinchona Officinalis (Peruvian bark), containing quinine, will produce malaria-like symptoms when repeatedly administered to healthy human volunteers. Its use, therefore, in the treatment of patients with malaria is in accordance with the Law of Similars (Jouanny, 1994). 38PDF Image | THE USE OF LIGHT AND COLOUR AS A HEALING MODALITY
