What Is Homeopathy And How Does It Works?
Online, March 26, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Homeopathy is a medical philosophy and practice that is based on the idea of body's ability to heal itself. Founded in Germany in the late 1700s, homeopathy has seen a wide practice across Europe. According to homeopathic medicine, the symptoms of illness are taken as body's normal responses as it tries to regain health.
The practice of homeopathy depends on the idea of 'like cures like'. That means if a substance is found to cause a symptom in healthy person, then the person on being given the same substance in small dose may cure the illness. In theory, the body's normal healing process is enhanced by a homeopathic dose as well as the self-regulatory processes.
A practioner of homeopathy uses liquids or pills mixtures (solutions) that have small amount of an active ingredient (usually mineral or plant) for treating the disease. These mixtures are highly diluted, also called "potentiated" substances. A good number of evidences show the beneficial effect of homeopathic medicines as found at any homeopathic medicine store.
What is homeopathy used for?
Right from beginning, people have used homeopathy for health and to treat a wide range of chronic illnesses, like allergies, rheumatoid arthritis, atopic dermatitis, and irritable bowel syndrome. The practice has also been used to treat minor injuries like cuts and scrapes as well as muscle sprains and strains.
However, homeopathic treatment is not considered right for treating cancer, major infections, heart disease, or emergencies. The practice of homeopathy could be widely seen in India, England and other countries of Europe. There are a wide availability of homeopathic medicine stores in these countries.
How safe is homeopathy?
The treatment of homeopathy is regulated in the United States since 1938 and is taken as a safe method of treatment. However, there are many critics of homeopathy who question the efficacy of treatment given the little active substance present in the solution that makes it impossible to get the benefits. The benefit that comes with the treatment is a result of thinking that the medicine is effective (placebo effect).
However, to the supporters of homeopathy, the highly diluted solutions contain a "memory" of the substance in water. On recognition of the substance, the body reacts to it. Numerous studies were conducted to determine if the effects of homeopathic treatments were placebo or whether some different actions taking place. Although, the working of homeopathic solutions could not be identified, there were proof that showed the difference between the homeopathic dilutions and placebo.
When visiting your medical doctor at any homeopathic medicine store Edmonton, tell about your interest to use homeopathic remedies. The doctor should have complete knowledge of your health conditions so that you could decide about where to get your homeopathic dilutions and the kind of homeopathic practitioners to meet. It should however be noted that homeopathic remedies should be taken along with conventional treatments in the case of serious health conditions.
In addition to homeopathic medicine store, some of the homeopathic medicines could be purchased without the need for a doctor's prescription at health food stores. But there could be variations in the preparations from different suppliers.
It is important to tell your doctor if an alternative therapy is being used or if you would like a combination of an alternative therapy and your conventional medical treatment. Don't give up your conventional medical treatment while going for an alternative therapy.
