Homeopathy Overview

 
Summary: Homeopathy, or homeopathic medicine, is a holistic system of treatment based on the “law of similars”, or treating “like with like”. The goal of homeopathic treatment is to restore the body to homeostasis, or a healthy balance. Technique: According to homeopathic medicine, the symptoms of a disease are reflective of the body's attempt to correct its imbalance. As a result, homeopaths prescribe remedies which are designed to stimulate the body’s own curative process. In this vein, symptoms are not necessarily suppressed in homeopathic treatment. In fact, it is not uncommon for the patient to feel worse before feeling better.Scientific Evidence: As regards to efficacy of homeopathic treatment, the jury is still out.   Read more
