Purging, a popular medical practice in Hahnemann's time, involved inducing vomiting or bowel movements to eliminate harmful substances from the body.

He advocated for a more holistic and individualized approach to medicine, emphasizing the importance of understanding the specific symptoms and characteristics of each patient.
