Homeopathy is safe:
Unlike other medicines, homeopathic medicines usually do not have
any side effects. Their ability to cause structural damage is Nil.
The reason for this is that homeopathic medicines act by stimulating
the body's own defense mechanism and healing powers. They do not have
any chemical action, so they do not have the potential to cause any
sustained damage. The doses are given in sub-physiological quantities.
So they can be given to children and adults alike without worrying
about the dosage. So Homoeopathy is Safe for every one.

Homeopathic medicines
are very effective: in both acute and chronic conditions.
Homeopathy in fact, is the only system of medicine which offers curative
treatment (not palliative) to a large number of chronic ailments which
have been labeled as 'incurable' by other schools of medicine. In
acute ailments also, homeopathic remedies, if selected properly, give
results faster then any other systems of medicine. |

Homeopathic medicines
are easy to administer: Homeopathic medicines are
usually dispensed as sweet sugar pills, which are very easy to take.
Due to this reason, children readily agree to take homeopathic remedies. |

Homeopathic treatment
is cheap: Homeopathic medicines are usually much cheaper
than comparable allopathic and ayurvedic drugs. And also there is
little stress on costly diagnostic procedures as homeopaths rely on
the symptoms to find the right medicine for a person. So the overall
cost of treatment is very little. Still this may not appear so to
many people in western countries as homeopathic treatment is usually
not covered by insurance companies. But that's myopic vision. One
has to think of long-term gains. Under proper homeopathic treatment
not only the person's immediate complaints improve, but also his/her
susceptibility to disease decreases as there is a general improvement
in health. So in the long run, there is better health, less medical
consultations and the cumulative cost is very low. Even otherwise,
hasn't some wise man said "Health is the real Wealth?" |

Homeopathy considers the complaints of a patient in
totality. It views a person as a whole, as an integrated entity, and
not as a mere collection of body parts. So it treats the person as
a whole too. Thus one does not have to visit ten different 'specialists'
for his/her ten different body parts. After all our body is more than
a collection of parts! So homeopathy saves your time, money and health
at the same time. |
