Placing Trust In Homeopathy Remedies

By Sarah Wilson


Although the science of homeopathy has been established for centuries, many people in the United States are uneducated on the subject - if they are aware of it at all. However, the interest in natural methods of healing that is steadily growing has caused millions to put their trust in homeopathy remedies.

Although the term 'homeopathic remedies' might be unknown, many use 'Rhus Tox' to alleviate the itching and rash associated with poison ivy exposure. Others rub 'Arnica' in gel or ointment form on sore muscles (or take the remedy in pill form) or use a popular flu preparation that is sold over the counter.

The FDA regulates the practice of homeopathic healing as it does the drug industry and the medical profession. There are also trade organizations dedicated to quality control, best manufacturing practices, and responsible promotional methods. By educating the public, they seek to heighten awareness and foster trust in this safe and effective form of natural healing.

As part of the educational effort, many of the leading companies have websites where you can learn the basics of this form of healing and well-being. The history is fascinating and the theory easy to understand. Becoming a homeopath (practitioner) is similar to becoming a doctor, with intensive training in diagnosis and prescribing.

All most of us need to understand is the basic theory: like cures like. What this means is that a substance known to produce certain symptoms can stimulate the body (it works on animals as well as humans) to fight imbalances with its own defenses. For instance, 'Alluim' is a remedy with the common onion as the active ingredient. Onion causes runny eyes and nose, and 'Allium' alleviates those symptoms when they are caused by a cold or an allergy.

Go online to learn more about homeopathy remedies and the science behind them, which includes centuries of clinical study. This natural healing method is both effective and affordable, as well as having a track record of safety that goes back far longer than penicillin and other modern drugs.
