Fluxion potency is a fascinating method of preparing homeopathic remedies that deviates from the traditional hand-succussion technique. Instead of manually shaking and diluting, fluxion potencies are created using a continuous flow of liquid, often through a specialized machine.
🌊 What Is Fluxion Potency?
See lessDefinition: The term fluxion comes from the Latin word fluxus, meaning “flow.” In homeopathy, it refers to a method of potentization where the medicinal substance is diluted through a continuous stream of solvent, typically water or alcohol, without manual succussion.
Inventors: This method was pioneered by homeopaths like Bernhardt Fincke, Skinner, Swan, and Kent in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
⚙️ How It Works
A potentizing machine is used to create serial dilutions.
The liquid containing the remedy flows continuously through a system, and each stage of dilution is achieved by turbulence and flow dynamics rather than shaking.
There are two main types:
Continuous Fluxion: Liquid is constantly added and removed.
Single Vial Method: Uses one container where dilution and flow occur in stages.
🧬 Key Features
No Succussion: Unlike traditional methods, fluxion potency does not involve vigorous shaking.
High Potencies: Often used to produce very high potencies (like 100C, 1000C, etc.).
Machine-Based: Relies on mechanical energy rather than human effort.
🧠 Why Use Fluxion Potency?
Believed to produce more dynamic remedies due to the turbulence in liquid flow.
Offers a standardized and efficient way to prepare high potencies.
Still used in some regions, especially in South America, though less common in Europe today.
