Homeopathy - A Complete System of Medical Treatment

Homeopathic medicines are aimed at improving the level of health by stimulating the self-regulatory mechanism of the body. Improving the level of health implies reducing any disease process as well as the susceptibility to illness and disease. That means that it is not limited to certain diseases but is applicable to almost all kinds of diseases. Homeopathy can often be used as a first option in certain medical conditions, keeping more costly and potentially toxic treatment as a second option. In addition Homeopathic care can offer therapeutic options where conventional treatments have failed or where conventional medicines do not exist for the problem, where they are contra-indicated or not tolerated. In many disorders Homeopathy can be a first choice treatment instead of a last resort.

In many people with chronic disease, integrating homeopathic treatment into their medical management can achieve results which would be considered impossible with conventional treatment alone. The therapeutic possibilities, however, depend on how much irreversible damage has, or has not, occurred, and on the extent to which the organism is able to recover. Limitations to homeopathic treatment are: specific surgical conditions, deficiency diseases and very serious diseases in which gross anatomical changes have evolved. However, even in incurable stages of a disease homeopathic treatment may relieve a patient’s suffering to a large extent.

In injuries and accidents homeopathic treatment can be of immense value. Homeopathy can even help if surgery is necessary. Homeopathic medicines can be given both pre-operatively and post-operatively to speed up healing and to counteract any effects of anxiety, fear, shock and anaesthetics. In general, patients treated with Homeopathy make a much more rapid post-operative recovery that those patients who have not.
