| | Homeopathy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In 1978 homeopathy, anthroposophically extended medicine and herbalism, were recognized as "special forms of therapy", meaning that their medications are freed from the usual requirement of proving efficacy. | | | Although homeopathy is reported to be rapidly growing in popularity, it is controversial and does not satisfy the scientific standards of evidence-based medicine. | | | Homeopathy is not practised by most of the medical profession, but there is a core of public support, including from the English royal family. |

| | Homeopathy is an excellent choice for babies and children and is an adjunct to the practice of chiropractic, Chinese medicine, massage therapy, and other modalities that support a healing response rather than suppress symptoms. | | | Homeopathy is effective for many conditions not well addressed by mainstream allopathic medicine. | | | Homeopathy can also be highly effective for numerous chronic conditions considered untreatable by conventional allopathic medicine. |

| | It is also suggested that the gentle approach of homeopathy was a reaction to the violent forms of medicine of the day, which included techniques such as bleeding as a matter of course. | | | Other homeopathic practitioners, however, believe that research does justify the effectiveness of homeopathy, and Ullman has argued that clinical research need not be invalidated by the need for a tailored remedy for a given individual. | | | Traditional homeopathy is arguably more recognized and accepted in continental Europe, perhaps because there its practitioners rely on more tradition and treatment with the "potentized" formulae recommended by Hahnemann. |

| | Another tenet of homeopathy is that you are treating the patient rather than a particular disease or organ system. | | | Homeopathy has no scientific basis whatsoever, and the concept of potentiation by dilutions is absurd when modern basic scientific principles are considered. | | | One of the basic problems with homeopathy is that it was founded before the principles of modern science were developed. |

| | Arthritis Today: Homeopathy |
| | Homeopathy is among the most popular alternative therapies in the United States, and even more popular in Europe and Canada where such "remedies" can be found side-by-side with conventional drugs in many pharmacies. | | | While much of homeopathy’s appeal is based on hearsay and anecdotes, nevertheless, a number of studies have shown homeopathic remedies are effective for some conditions. | | | There are acceptable studies that suggest homeopathy eases conditions such as allergies, but the research on homeopathy and arthritis is mixed, says Dr. Jonas. |

| | Homeopathy |
| | Homeopathy is based on the philosophy that the body, mind and emotions are not really separate and distinct, but are actually fully integrated. | | | Homeopathic remedies have been described as "designer medicines." While this might seem like a simplistic and trendy view of homeopathy, it is true that remedies are specially "designed" for individuals based upon their unique, and sometimes complex, state of being. | | | This means that the homeopath must take note of the physical, mental and emotional levels of each person before deciding on a correct remedy. |

| | Homeopathy has been the subject of at least 12 scientific reviews, including meta-analytic studies, published since the mid-1980s....[And] the findings are remarkably consistent:....homeopathic "remedies" are not effective. | | | The main harm from classical homeopathy is not likely to come from its remedies, which are probably safe but ineffective, though this is changing as homeopathy becomes indiscernible from herbalism in some places. | | | As homeopath Anthony Campbell puts it: "A homeopathic consultation affords the patient an opportunity to talk at length about her or his problems to an attentive and sympathetic listener in a structured environment, and this in itself is therapeutic."* In other words, homeopathy is a form of psychotherapy. |

| | Meta-analysis of 89 placebo-controlled trials failed to prove either that homeopathy was efficacious for any single clinical condition or that its positive clinical effects could entirely be due to a placebo effect [121a], thus leaving the scientific door open both ways. | | | In spite of many (most?) people knowing of success stories (and the opposite) concerning the use of homeopathy where it is practiced [120], scientists have difficulty in regarding this form of alternative medicine as any more than a placebo effect. | | | A further analysis of this data, however, indicated that some of these studies may have failed to avoid bias and that studies using better methodology yielded the less positive effects [121b]. |

| | Homeopathy is a branch of holistic medicine, but not all holistic medicine is homeopathy. | | | Researchers Paolo Bellavite, MD and Andrea Signorini, MD said in their book Homeopathy: A Frontier in Medical Science that the single largest stumbling block to acceptance of homeopathy is a lack of a firm theory to explain how it works. | | | I, too, was very skeptical about homeopathy, and the only thing that changed my mind was seeing the effects it had on my animals. |
