Homoeopathy is the branch of medical science which was invented by Dr Sameul Hahnemann in 1796 accidentally while working as translater and doing translation of one phrase" The thing which can cure the disease has the tendency to produce the same in healthy one" .He did not believe this and as He was a medical doctor and great flawless experimentor he decided to experiment this on himself.
He had seen in his practise that peruvian bark can cure fever and chill as it is bitter.To check it out he took 4 drachms of china twice a day and started developing fever with chill and extreme weakness.Thus it was proved that peruvian bark cured the fever and chill not because it was bitter but because it had tendency to produce it in healthy individual.Hence he came to the conclusion that "the thing that can cure anything in diseased has the tendency to produce it in healthy individual"
He came out with the principle "similia similibus curanter" Means like cures like which later on became principle of homoeopathy.
These experiments were carried out by him in 1790 and after exhausting research of 6 yrs on various other medicines he propounded homoeopathy (homoeos=same, ,pathoes=therapy)
Therapy based on same thing like cures like.
