Homeopathy is necessarily a natural healing process, providing remedies to help the patient regain their health by stimulating the body's inherent strengths or recovery. It focuses on treating the patient rather than the disease and based on the principle of "like cures like." Homeopathy treats the "whole person", means that two people having the same illness may receive a different medicine based on their symptoms and emotional response to the illness or disease.

Homeopathy medicines are made utilizing predominately plant, animal & mineral substances in dilution to stimulate the body's natural healing response. Homeopathic medicines are prepared according to strict guidelines and are very dilute as well as considered gentle in their action when prescribed by a certified homeopath.

A wide range of both acute and chronic illnesses may benefit from homeopathic medicine. Homeopathic medicines are also prescribed for severe illnesses including sports injuries, coughs, colds, diarrhoea, hay fever, travel sickness. Homeopathy can be helpful in the case of more profound and more chronic diseases, including autoimmune diseases and persistent chronic conditions for which conventional medicine often has nothing more to offer. Extensive clinical experience, observations and research continue to support the effectiveness of homeopathy in a wide range of diseases from men, women, children, infants and the elderly.Find out the list of diseases that can be treated with homeopathy here!

A thorough investigation is essential when taking a homeopathic case. In addition to asking questions about your symptoms, a homeopath will be interested in you as an individual and in the unique way your symptoms affect you. The first consultation with a homeopath may take an hour or more. However, simple acute illness may only take 15 to 30 minutes. Information regarding current symptoms and medical history will be required. Questions can also be asked about diet, sleep, lifestyle and some mental and emotional aspects. Physical exams may be necessary, depending on the illness. The treatment involves the most appropriate homeopathic medicines, combining all the symptoms and individual characteristics of the patient with the drug. Two people with the same condition may require very different medicines because of their own set of symptoms. Your homeopath may also recommend lifestyle and diet changes in general as part of a treatment plan.

According to the homeopathic faculty of the United Kingdom, between 1950 and 2014, more than 104 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were published in peer-reviewed journals that describe statistically significant results. Of these RCTs comparing homeopathy to placebo or conventional medicine, 43 reported positive outcomes for homeopathy.The largest homeopathic study ever conducted by the National Health Service (UK) in Bristol, lasted 6 years of research on more than 6,500 patients: - chronic diseases such as eczema, migraine, arthritis, Chronic fatigue and irritable bowel syndrome have been treated. In children under 16, 89% of asthmatic patients and 82% of eczematous patients showed clinical improvement. 74% of migraineurs, 72% of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome and 77% of women with menopausal problems reported improvements compared to homeopathic treatment.The Swiss government recently published a report supporting complementary medicine and in particular homeopathy, as well as the cost-effectiveness of CAM therapies (complementary and alternative medicine).http://facultyofhomeopathy.org/randomised-controlled-trials/http://www.britishhomeopathic.org/bristol-patient-outcome-study/

Homeopathic medicines can be administered as liquid, granules, powder or tablets and are designed to stimulate the body's natural healing response.

Fact: Homeopathy is based on experimental pharmacological and clinical data. Over the years, the effectiveness of homeopathic medicines in various indications has been extensively studied. Clinical studies have been conducted in India and other countries. The term "allopathy" was coined by the founder of homeopathy, which allopaths regard as the founder of experimental pharmacology. Homeopathy is proven science.

Fact: Yes, white sugar tablets, as such, have no medicinal value. But these act as vehicles or carriers for drugs, which are alcohol-based. Otherwise, the drug can be taken directly or dissolved in water. Homeopathic medicines have been scientifically researched around the world and have proven effective in a wide range of diseases. So, they are not placebos.

Fact: Homeopathy works quickly in acute cases and can be used effectively to treat infections, fever, colds, etc. Unfortunately, people tend to consult a homeopath only when the critical problem has become chronic. Naturally, these cases take longer to treat. Also, most people use homeopathy for cases of arthritis, allergic asthma or skin conditions, etc., which also require prolonged intervention with other medications.

Fact: Homeopathy, like any other field of medicine, has its limitations. For example, he cannot treat cases where surgery is certain, dental cases, etc.

Fact: Qualified doctors practice homeopathy in most parts of the world. In India, there are more than 178 medical schools offering university degrees and 33 colleges offering postgraduate studies in homeopathy. At present, there are more than 2,100 homeopaths trained in the country.

Fact: Dietary restrictions or modifications may vary from one case to another. For example, some patients may be asked to avoid consuming onions, garlic, coffee, tea, tobacco, alcohol, etc. Depending upon the case, these substances may have a disruptive action on homeopathic medicines taken by the patient. But then, avoiding alcohol and tobacco consumption is also safe and wise.

Fact: Unlike the common belief, Homeopathy works in both - acute and chronic cases. In fact, Homeopathic medicines work quickly in acute cases and can be effectively used to treat diarrhea, fevers, colds, coughs, etc. At the same time, Homeopathy remains one of the best options for the treatment of various chronic, autoimmune, and many rare diseases which has no satisfactory treatment in the conventional systems. Common examples of such diseases for which homeopathy is among the best treatment options include Rheumatoid arthritis, allergic asthma, lupus, keloid, ankylosing spondylitis, osteomyelitis, that is, bone infections, and more.

Fact: Depending on the disease, homeopaths take sugar pills with different medications. The sugar pills serve only as a vehicle for the transfer of the drug. The chosen remedy, among a range of more than 1100 different dilutions, is focused on the problems of each individual patient.

Fact: Homeopathic doctors understand that majority [60%] of the disease conditions are just because of lack of one or more group of vitamins & minerals. A well qualified & expert homeopathic physician understands the role of improper diet in every disease condition and their importance in treating the disease. By thoroughly examining every case, the doctor will often suggest or give vitamins & mineral [e.g.-iron, calcium, magnesium, etc.] as per the deficiencies in the case.

Fact: As a general rule, homeopathic medicines do not cause any side effects if they are prescribed at doses of 30 and above. However, some tinctures and triturates in deficient concentrations such as 1x & 2x, may have minor side effects, if the medications are taken without proper consultation of a qualified homeopathic practitioner.

Fact: This is not true. Homeopathic medicines can be conveniently taken by diabetic patients without having to worry about the commonly used dose-form, that is, the sugar pills. In this form, the amount of sugar is insignificant and it does not critically raise the blood sugar levels of the diabetic patients. Then, there are other dose-forms where sugar is not present at all, like in case of dilutions with no sugar content in them.

Fact: Another widespread misconception is that allopathic or other medicines cannot be taken with homeopathic medicine. But if a person is on extended continued allopathic treatment, especially steroids or “life-saving drugs,” discontinuing the medication abruptly might cause a sudden increase in the intensity of his symptoms. The best way is to gradually reduce the dosage of the allopathic drug as the improvement and then stop under the supervision of the doctor.

Fact: Few doctors limit the consumption of onions, garlic, tea, coffee, etc with homeopathic medicines. But research has shown that such things do not affect the effectiveness of the drug if taken in moderation and a large gap is maintained between them and the drug. Homeopathic medicines work well on patients accustomed to coffee and betel. Take the example of the southern states, where people drink mostly coffee, but homeopathy is the most popular and works very well in these states. But with certain drugs, such restrictions are indispensable; otherwise, their action is the antidote.

Fact: It’s not that Homeopathy is suitable for children only; it is just that children love to take homeopathic medicines due to their sweet taste. It is ideal for children because if we give them a homeopathic treatment from the beginning, it will give birth to a healthy generation because homeopathic medicines not only remove the disease from its root, but they also increase the power of resistance of the body and they prevent the progression of the disease or prevent the disease from becoming chronic. But homeopathy is also useful in adults.

Fact: This is not so. Homeopathy can be taken for mild, acute, and chronic health problems. The existing misconception that Homeopathy is only effective in chronic cases is because most people often start their homeopathic treatment after a prolonged period of conventional treatment, especially when the existing problem has worsened. In such cases, the problem often becomes chronic; that is, it lasts for longer periods of time. Naturally, the treatment procedure will usually take longer than in the case when homeopathic treatment is being taken from the beginning. Therefore, it’s recommended that one should immediately seek advice from a qualified homeopathic doctor, even if the problem is acute or mild.

Fact: Homeopathic medicines are given based on symptom similarity. The medication that is given to cure a set of symptoms is capable of producing similar symptoms in a healthy human being. The primary action of the medicine may be observed by the patient as an aggravation of his disease, but in a real sense, it is only homeopathic aggravation that is a part of the healing process. If the indicated drug is repeated more than necessary, it often increases the symptoms, which subside on their own after weaning. Sometimes, if the patient takes steroids or other allopathic medicines and stops them abruptly, the initial illness can get worse.

Fact: As a general rule, for homeopathic treatment, it is not necessary to conduct medical investigations. However, for the diagnosis, the prognosis and the appropriate management of the case, the homeopaths advise investigations.

Reality: A single remedy, that is, medicine, should be the first choice according to homeopathic principles, but the complex array of symptoms presented by the patient makes it difficult to use the principle of 'similimum.' Therefore, medicinal combinations in Homeopathy have become commonplace and are also safe.

Fact: It often seems to people that all homeopathic medicines are identical because they are dispensed in globules. In fact, in all preparations, the vehicle (medium in which the medicine is dispensed) remains the same. However, different homeopathic dilutions are used to mediatize it. Depending on the disease, a homeopathic doctor treats a disease with different homeopathic medicines. In the case of sugar pills, they just serve as a vehicle for the transfer of the drug to the patient. The selected medicine, over a range of 1200+ different dilutions, is targeted at individual health problems.

Fact: It is said that one should not touch homeopathic medicines with one’s hands. But as such, there is no restriction. One can always take the medication on hand provided they are clean.

Fact: Highly qualified doctors practice homeopathy in most parts of the world. In India, there are more than 200 medical schools offering degrees and postgraduate studies in homeopathy. At present, there are more than two lakh homeopathic doctors in India who are practicing and serving the community.

Fact: Homeopathy is a scientific system and is not something that can be learned only from books. To become a qualified homeopathic doctor, you must take a 5 & 1/2-year course in homeopathy, including a year of internship. During the course, students learn subjects related to homeopathy as well as anatomy, physiology, pathology, jurisprudence, surgery, medicine, and obstetrics. Practicing homeopathy without a recognized degree is an offense punishable by law. Many Indian colleges also offer a postgraduate program in homeopathy, M.D. (Hon.), in various disciplines.
