- Individualization – Every person is unique in their own way. Whether it’s their nature or temperament, it may vary from person to person. In the same way, the symptoms of the medical issue they face may differ for each individual. In this medicine, it is believed that a person’s life choices, temperament, likes – dislikes, and nature play a vital role in the ailment they are suffering.
