The “Water Medicine” of the Solomon Islands is a 110 year legacy of Homeopathic prescribing “By Numbers.” It was first introduced by Christian Missionaries who were trained in London at both the Missionary School of Medicine and also at the former London Homeopathic Hospital. They learned to support themselves and their families, with homeopathic medicine, when sent to far flung areas of the globe to “Preach and Heal.”
When teaching local people how to use the remedies, the system had to be workable, practical and easy to use. So the homeopathic medicines were given a number instead of a name like Arnica. Sometimes instead of numbers, or names the remedies might be called after what condition they would help. For example arnica might get called "big hurt". In this very usable fashion, Homeopathy has supported the health of remote communities across many islands of the Solomons for over a century, simply, gently and effectively for acute and chronic diseases.
Following an initial visit in 2010 and setting up training workshops in 2011, Jane Lindsay who is the Vice President of The Aurum Project was approached to return to the Solomon Islands to assist further in replenishing remedies, bottles & supplies, and teaching a new generation of village Pastors and health workers in our wonderful medicine that is Homeopathy. Another visit has been made in November 2024.
We are fundraising to continue this important work into the future.
