A Look at the 69th LMHI Congress in Paris – Homeopathy on the Move

Introduction: The international homeopathic medical society Liga Medicorum Homoeopathica Internationalis (LMHI), established in Rotterdam in 1925, represents homeopathic physicians in more than 70 countries all over the world. The purposes of the association are the development and securing of homeopathy worldwide and the creation of a link among licensed homeopaths with medical diplomas and societies and persons who are interested in homeopathy. The LMHI is exclusively devoted to non-profit activities serving philanthropic benefits.

Dr. Renzo Galassi an Enthusiastic President

Dr.Galassi has been acting eagerly to encourage homeopathy worldwide. In a friendly meeting with him, he said that he would like to come to Iran. He wanted us to encourage other Iranian homeopaths to take part in LMHI Congresses. My wife and I talked to him on our weak points in Iran, including lack of homeopathic hospitals and governmental homeopathic colleges. He confirmed that many countries suffer from the same problems. He added “of course some countries like India have a better situation.” My wife has started our mission to promote our colleagues in Iran after coming back home.

Bienvenue Au Paris; Welcome to Paris

The French Homeopathic Medical Doctors and the organising and scientific committees took great pleasure in welcoming the participants to the 69^th LMHI Congress on July 16^th 2014 in Paris, the last residence of our great Master, Dr. Samuel Hahnemann.

Homeopathy on the Move; Strategies and Levels of Healing

This was the central theme of this year’s congress. According to Dr. Philippe Servais, the President of the 69^TH LMHI Congress, the quality of the presentations had been scrutinised by the scientific committee, looking at two aspects; the level of scientific evidence and the correspondence to the congress theme. Other topics were dealt with as well, so that all could express themselves; epidemiology, research, provings, doctrine, history and philosophy. Colleagues coming from 48 countries participated in the congress.

“When Hahnemann moved to Paris in 1835, fifty homeopaths were working in France. Parisian consultations of Antoine Petroz and Auguste-Paul Curi had great success. A friend of the master, Sebastian Guidi founded the Societe Homeopathique Lyonnaise in 1832, which later became the Societe Homeopathique Galliance.” Dr.Servais continued.

Presenting 239 Lectures and 35 Posters at the Congress

During the three active days after the reception ceremony on the July 16^th , 239 lectures were presented at the Amphi Bleu, the large amphitheatre on the 2^nd floor of the building and Rooms number 251, 252 A and 252 B and room 253.
