It is slow to act. |
Not really. Homoeopathy is fast acting in acute
conditions such as infections, fever, diarrhea, etc. The chronic
and old disease such as psoriasis take a long time to treat hence
homoeopathy has been labeled as slow acting. One may say that
homoeopathy may be slower than the effect of pain-killers, anti-inflammatory medicines and steroids. One must know that
homoeopathy is faster in the treatment of conditions such as
allergy, asthma, eczema, migraine, arthritis.
Homoeopathy is like a tortoise in the well-known story of
tortoise and rabbit. |
|
Homoeopathy is useful only for the chronic conditions and
and has no role for acute ailments. |
Homoeopathy is a great alternative medicine for acute
diseases. In fact, almost 50% of our practice (at the Life Force
Center) consists of acute ailments varying form cough-cold-fever
to otitis media, pneumonia, tonsillitis, hepatitis, sinusitis,
etc.
Homoeopathy is a real alternative medicine. |
|
When it comes to handling infections, nothing can beat antibiotics. |
This misbelief is an example of mass ignorance in the hi-
tech era that we are living in. Over an again, thousands of
practitioners world over, have repeatedly and regularly observed
that infections of all kind including the bacterial infections,
respond beautifully to homoeopathy and no antibiotics are
required for most of such conditions. It is in rare cases when the
infection is very massive and the body has lost the vitality to
recover, probably antibiotics are required in addition to
homoeopathy.
One, day homoeopathy will be recognized as a latest
generation antibiotic measure. |
|
Homoeopathy is more placebo effect and faith healing... |
Scientific double blind studies have indicated that
homoeopathy far above the placebo effect. The effect of
homoeopathy medicine has been observed millions of time, which
cannot be labeled as placebo effect. New born babies, infants,
animals such as lions, dogs, etc. have shown healing effects of
homoeopathy, which goes against the placebo effect. Saying that
homoeopathy is placebo, in the light of above facts, is not just
a misbelief but a prejudice.
Frankly, this is an insult. However, over the period, we have
realized that those who continue assuming that homoeopathy is
mere placebo, are superstitious. |
|
Homoeopathy can only help functional problems such as
pain, weakness, where there are no structural changes
in the body. |
Homoeopathy has proved its efficacy for the treatment
of structural pathology. Numerous documented cases
where the reversal of the structural pathology has
taken place indicating the depth of homoeopathy
action.
The skeptics should keep the eyes open to evaluate the
documented cases. |
|
Homoeopathy is practiced by some quacks and those who
have no scientific back-ground... |
Well,
homoeopathy in most parts of the world is practiced by
the qualified allopaths, the practitioners of the
modern medicine. The founder of homoeopathy, Dr. Samuel
Hahnemann, MD was a German scientist. And most of the
masters and the pioneers in the past were enlightened
allopaths.
Those who think we are quacks, we just smile... |
|
Homoeopathy is a miracle medicine and it cures every
disease under the sun. |
Homoeopathy is no panacea. It has its own set of
limitations. We do fail in many cases, and keep
learning to heal the suffering humanity.
Homoeopathy is not an ultimate medicine, for nothing
is ultimate in this universe. |
| Is that
homoeopathy would worsen my symptoms initially and then
bring about improvement". I am scared to try Homoeopathy
since I cannot afford to see my symptoms getting worse
than what I have at the moment. |
It is not
true that Homoeopathy would lead to an initial
aggravation of your complaints. After Dr. Shah’s 21
years of dedicated and sincere practice in homeopathy,
he claims that he is yet to see any homoeopathic
aggravation!. The aggravation which the patient
experiences at times after taking the medicines is
usually coincidental with the progress of the disease
where in it worsens in its natural course. This confirms
that the homoeopathic remedies are usually harmless, but
the myths associated with them are not. |
