Abstract: Electropathy is the Modern Herbal Medicine of 21st century and the system of medicine is based on
the Law of Nature. While providing Electropathy education program in our Karunya Institute of Medical
Science, Tamilnadu focus research and development of the precious medical system with enhancing the quality
of the life of our people both physical and mental. This is the right choice of the student with better
understanding of the new system of medicine. I take this opportunity to endless effects to make KIMS an ideal
Centre for continues learning and research for our students. We are working together to the development of
Integrative Medicine like Electropathy, Nutrition and Natural Medicine.
Life and health are in the blood and the lymph; that disease in the utilization of the blood or the lymph or of both
together…….C.C.Mattei

LIFE HISTORY OF COUNT CESARE MATTE I
Electrohomeopathy is the name given to a new system
of medicine discovered by a famous Italian Count
Cesare Mattei in the later part of the 1800’s. Count
Mattei, the founder of Electrohomeopathy, was born
on the 11th January in the year of 1809
in Bologna City in Italy. He belongs to one of the
noblest families of learned town of Bologna.

After having studied natural science, he gave himself
up to anatomy, physiology and pathology. Then more
exclusively to chemistry and botany, after long and
patients research following a method of his own, he
discovered how to extract from certain plants the
active principles which, alone or combine, form the
agent in the new materiamedica. Numerous and
prolonged experiments upon the animal economy,
experiments made first of all upon the dogs, have
demonstrated the curative power of his remedies upon
the organism, and at the same time have proved that
they can never produce the slightest morbid alteration
either in the organs or their functions.
He believed in the, famous Paracelsus who introduced
“law of presence of electricity in vegetable kingdom”.
Thus convinced simultaneously of their immense
utility and of their perfectly innocuous character, the
count has applied to them with all confidence to all of
the human beings. Further, in order to observe closely
in numerable cases of disease, and the better to study
the effect of these remedies, he held in his mention
at Bologna, for more than ten years, public and private
consultations in the presence of physician and
surgeons who had attached themselves to him the
purpose of being present at the sitting.
It may be added of high person ages of all nations,
physicians and even large medical bodies. But
undoubtedly the German founder of Homoeopathy
Hahnemann (1755-1843) and his doctrine have non
the less influenced Mattei’s mind in his patients
researches, leading principle trying to investigate the
immediate effects of remedies and bring them into
practical service according to the familiar rule. On the
other hand, he borrowed from Paracelsus the process
of preparing the vegetable substances by means of a
more or less complicated mode of fermentation, called
“Spagyrism”, and also the final combination of a
number of ingredients with similar or supplementary
effect to form a complex medicinal unity.
Mattei had written his first book in 1874 in Italian
language, which was then published in other
languages. He has applied himself in his lifetime to
the discovery of MateriaMedica capable of modifying;
not only the manifestation or symptoms of disease, but
also their principle, or to speak better their first cause.
It is by means of a theory the simple, with curative
agents which he called Electricity in the remedies (Bio
enzyme), so elementary that everyone may cure
himself and his medicine is certainly the medicine of
the future.
He died on 3rd of April 1896 at the
magnificent castle of La Rochetta, situated in the heart
of the Apennines. If there are but few honest hearts in
this world, there is still enough remaining to bless his
memory. During mattei life time when the Count
Mattei aged in 1887 he handed over all his work to his
adopted son Mario Venturoli Mattei. Later on after the
First world War Mattei remedies were stopped to
export from Italy, then V. Mattei made the agreement
with the German Pharmist and Theodore Karuss to
sell mattei remedies via Engel Apotheker Regensburg
in Germany. This System later on becomes more
popular & recognized than ever by his disciple
Theodore Krauss.

sense and our entrails, in our heart and intestines, in
the big digestive glands there are numerous ganglions
cells of such as kind, often combined in vast
complexes to ganglions. The outer stations are also
used for producing and directing nerve power. All
these power and switching stations are connected to
one another and to the big centres in our brain through
conducting, the so called nerve fibres, which often
combined like cables, run in thinner or thicker cords
