The Voice of the Homeopathic Medical Profession since 1844
Homeopathy, or Homeopathic Medicine, is the practice of medicine that embraces a holistic, natural approach to the treatment of the sick. Homeopathy is holistic because it treats the person as a whole, rather than focusing on a diseased part or a labeled sickness. Homeopathy is natural because its remedies are produced according to the U.S. FDA-recognized Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States from natural sources, whether vegetable, mineral, or animal in nature.
The word Homeopathy, which comes from the Greek, through Latin into English, literally means like disease . This means that the medicine given is like the disease that the person is expressing, in his totality, not like a specific disease category or medical diagnosis.
In October 2023, an overview of systematic reviews was published, analyzing meta-analyses comparing homeopathy to placebo across various medical conditions. This study included six reviews: four historical reviews published between 1997 and 2005, as well as two reviews of placebo-controlled trials by Mathie et al. (2014 and 2017).

Licensed physicians have been prescribing homeopathic medicines in the course of their practice of medicine ever since 1810, when the homeopathic phenomenon was first elucidated, made public, and developed as a system of medicine by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, a celebrated German physician. His three major works are the Organon of Medicine (1810), the Materia Medica Pura (1821), and the Chronic Diseases (1828), all of which were written for physicians in their practice of medicine. Homeopathic physicians are in practice throughout the world and homeopathy is officially recognized as a system of medicine by the national/government health services of the UK, France, Switzerland, and India, among others.
