Today Homeopathy is well accepted as a safe and effective, alternative form of medical treatment. Homeopathy is a healing process in which the medicines stimulate and encourage the body's natural healing forces of recovery. The homeopathic principle of treating like with like is based on treating an illness with a substance that produces in a healthy person similar symptoms to those experienced by the sick person. Conventional medicine believes that symptoms are caused by the illness, whereas homeopathy sees the symptoms as the body's natural reaction in fighting the illness, and seeks to stimulate them rather than suppress them. These high dilutions not only enhance their curative properties, but avoid undesirable side effects.
Homeopathic medicines are completely safe with no unwanted side effects and they are non-addictive.
They are safe for babies, children and elderly people. There are more than 2,000 homeopathic medicines. They look the same as any other medicines, although they are totally different in their preparation and action. They are usually presented in the form of granules, tablets or liquids, all prepared in modern laboratories in scientific conditions to the highest quality standards. They are prepared from pure, natural animal, vegetable or mineral substances that are listed in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States.
