What is Homeopathy Homeopathy views symptoms as the bodies healing process and signs that the body is repairing itself. A homeopath will prescribe a remedy to stimulate this healing process and help the body to return to health naturally without the unwanted side effects that accompany conventional drugs. No further medication is necessary. Orthodox medicine views the symptoms as the problem and attempts to control the symptoms by suppressing the natural healing response with repeated use of unnatural chemical substances. A person who is prescribed long-term medication is not undergoing cure, they are at best only suppressing the symptoms and not allowing the body to repair itself. If the medication is withdrawn the patient will quite often return to ill health. The aim of homeopathy is to cure; Not to control. Homeopathy is a very safe and efficient form of medicine used by millions of people worldwide. All, from newborn babies to senior citizens, can take it with confidence. |
