When I first starting practicing homeopathy I began paying attention to deeper patterns in healing, not just feeling better or getting rid of symptoms. Very few forms of medicine truly value this approach: empowering the body to work through illness and overcome it without suppression or further disturbance. One powerful example of how healing unfolds in homeopathic care is something called Hering’s Law of Cure.
Hering’s Law (named after Dr. Constantine Hering, a major figure in homeopathy) describes the natural order that true healing tends to follow. It’s not about masking symptoms or chasing quick fixes - it’s about the body, mind, and energy actually rebalancing themselves in a wise, almost intelligent way.
3 Laws of Cure:
From the inside out (deeper organs heal before the skin clears up)
From the top down (symptoms leave from the head first, then the torso, then the legs)
In the reverse order of appearance (the most recent issues clear first, older ones may reappear briefly before resolving)
Sometimes a cough clears up but an old rash from years ago reappears for a few days. Or a feeling of strange burst of old emotions (grief, fear) that bubble up and pass, almost like the body saying, “Hey, let’s finish this story properly now.”
At first, it can feel backwards. But Hering’s Law reminds us: real healing isn’t always linear.
Sometimes you have to move through the layers you once suppressed to actually clear them.
It’s not always comfortable. But it’s incredibly reassuring to know there’s a roadmap - not just symptom by symptom, but deeper restoration happening.
When working with homeopathy (or even just listening to your body in general), I find it helpful to ask oneself:
Am I healing from deeper to more superficial issues?
Are symptoms moving downward or outward?
Am I revisiting old things (physically, emotionally) for a reason?
Not every flare-up is a setback. Sometimes, it’s actually a breakthrough. Sometimes, what looks like regression is actually the body’s wisdom in motion.
Hering's law is a reminder that healing- real healing- is a journey with its own intelligence. We just have to trust it, even when it feels messy.
At New Moon Homeopathic Clinic, I believe that true healing is a dynamic, evolving journey - just like the phases of the moon. Hering’s Law of Cure reminds us that the body knows how to heal when given the right support, and that healing unfolds in its own intelligent, natural way.
Healing through all phases is possible, and it begins with listening to your body’s story.
