JSKS Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I'm using the term as defined by the British Society of Homeopaths.Undoubtedly complementary therapies have their place; it is true that many natural remedies have demonstrable medicinal properties and little understood therapies such as acupuncture can be shown to have physiological effects. For homeopathy, the physiological effect of the homeopathic sugar pill or water is identical to that of normal sugar pill or water.Incidentally, probabaly the most effective therapy for most illnesses is time. But people seem to need a pill or nostrum which, when concurrent with the passing of time, can be defined as a therapeutic agent. Post hoc ergo propter hoc.

JSKS Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 [quote user="alittlebitfrench"]I have no idea what homeopathy is in UK but in France they are little balls of sugar in a dispensing pot.I took some once that were prescribed for eczema. It did not work.[/quote]Would you say it didn't come up to scratch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
