Humphreys Remedies

Picture
Frederick was born in Marcellus, New York, on March 11, 1816 to Erastus Humphreys (1785–1848), a physician. Frederick was raised in Auburn, New York, where he went to the Auburn Academy. In 1832 he joined his uncle and brother in their clock business. In 1835 he returned home to manage his father's farm. In 1837, at the age of 21, he married Cornelia Palmer (c 1816–1840), and they moved to Chillicothe, Ohio, where Cornelia's father lived. In Chillicothe Frederick entered the Methodist Episcopal ministry. His wife died in 1840 and Fredrick returned to Auburn as an itinerant preacher.

More than a century ago, Frederick Humphreys took the lead in homeopathic circles, sharing his expertise with thousands of patients and prescribers. Humphreys brought forth his findings of homeopathic "combinations" and coined the term "Homeopathic Specifics." His preparations offered in one dose what traditional homeopathic physicians would prescribe by the individual ingredient, making the formulas much more widely accessible.

In 1853, Fredrick Humphreys became one of the leading homeopathic physicians in New York. His achievements included being Chairman of the American Institute of Homoeopathy's "Bureau for the Augmentation and Improvement of the Materia Medica" of the American Institute of Homoeopathy. During this time he also helped to establish what came to be known as The New York State Homoeopathic Medical Society.

This approach made it easy for individuals to diagnose and self-prescribe without the need to worry about a host of traditional concerns, including content or potency selection. In 1854, The Humphreys Homoeopathic Medicine Co. was established (later incorporated under the name "Humphreys Pharmacal") and began to market his namesake products, Humphreys Homoeopathic Specifics. These preparations, along with his belief in natural healing, continue to be the basis for both our homeopathic and skincare products.
