The Homeopathic Professionals Teaching Group (HPTG) first
developed a three year modular course in 1991 to inspire and
awaken students to the potential for the profound and lasting
changes that homeopathy can initiate. The course gradually
integrated medical and veterinary teaching and many sessions are
now led by a medical doctor and a veterinarian.
The class
separates into the respective professional groups where needs
differ significantly. The combined approach has been highly
successful and all participants benefit from experiencing a
different view of the subject.
The founders of HPTG were heavily influenced by the teachings on
classical homeopathy by George Vithoulkas but it is HPTG policy
to expose delegates to as much of modern day homeopathic
philosophy as possible.
Delegates at present are introduced to,
and encouraged to study, the work of new thinkers such as Jan Scholten and Rajan Sankaran. We consider that these approaches
are equally relevant to veterinary and medical homeopathy. On
the other hand, we consider that there is a place in homeopathy
for the use of prescribing on a more pathological basis and the
course includes tuition on such concepts as isopathy, nosodes, a
systems approach to prescribing, and the use of bowel nosodes.
