-Many people believe that homeopathy is a miracle science, it can make a magical cure
for even the most incurable diseases such as cancer, comatose stages, paralysis, etc.
Actually, it is not. Homeopathy is simply a science-based on certain laws with its own
scope and limitations.
-There are rules, parameters, and methods of application, which determine the scope of
treatment.

. Trials which investigated the role of these remedies in osteoarthritis


and rheumatoid arthritis gave inconsistent results. but evidence isn’t
conclusive.
imilar to traditional Chinese medicine, homeopathy is a holistic method
of treatment. We don’t fully understand how homeopathic treatments
work. Remedies are often diluted to the point where there may be no
molecules of active ingredient left.
homepathic remedies are considered to be well tolerated, although
allergic reactions (like rashes) have been reported. Some people also
find their symptoms become worse at the start of treatment.
Results of the trials into the use of homeopathy for rheumatoid arthritis
were inconsistent, with one trial (of reasonable quality but with a high
withdrawal rate) showing significant benefit from homeopathy and two
trials (one of reasonable quality) showing no significant effect. People
who use this sometimes use it lifelong and just put their symptoms
under control but the disease is not cured

Homeopathy can cure the early stages of Rheumatoid arthritis but not the deformities

Homeopathy is a controversial topic. A number of the key concepts underlying the


theory of homeopathy are not consistent with fundamental scientific concepts as we
understand them. For example, homeopathic preparations can be so dilute that a
substance considered to be the “active ingredient” becomes unmeasurable, which
creates major challenges to the rigorous investigation of such products. However,
recent research has begun to examine physical attributes of these preparations to
determine if it will be possible to characterize them in the future.
■ Homeopathic practitioners expect some of their patients to experience
“homeopathic aggravation” (a temporary worsening of existing symptoms after
taking a homeopathic prescription). Researchers have not found much evidence
of this reaction in clinical studies; however, research on homeopathic
aggravations is scarce. Always discuss changes in your symptoms with your
health care provider.

Advantages

Homeopathy is a medical system based on the belief that the body can cure itself.
Those who practice it use tiny amounts of natural substances, like plants and minerals.
They believe these stimulate the healing process which is slow and steady.
A central principle of the "treatment" is that "like cures like" – that a substance that
causes certain symptoms can also help to remove those symptoms. Add a red onion
example

A second central principle is based around a process of dilution and shaking called
succussion.

Practitioners believe that the more a substance is diluted in this way, the greater its
power to treat symptoms.

● These medcines are given in very minute doses so that they are non-toxic, and
are very safe. Unlike antibiotics and other medicines, homeopathic medicines will
not hamper digestion; will not lower immune resistance; will not produce allergic
reactions and are safe in the long term if taken as directed by a qualified
homeopath.
● Homeopathy is based on the theory of ‘treating like with like’. The
way homeopathic remedies work isn’t clear, but there doesn’t seem
to be any safety risk with using them

● Homeopathy definitely Helps Build Resistance

○ Homeopathic treatments addresses disease at the root level, hence


enhancing resistance to disease.
● Homeopathy for All Life's Stages
○ Homeopathic medicines are safe for everyone because there is no risk of
toxicity or side-effects. Homeopathy is ideal for all life stages including
pregnant and lactating women

Treatments are “individualized” or tailored to each person—it’s common for different


people with the same condition to receive different treatments. Homeopathy uses a
different diagnostic system for assigning treatments to individuals and recognizes
clinical patterns of signs and symptoms that are different from those of conventional
medicine.
