Myths and Facts

Myth: Homeopathy is simply herbal medicine.
Fact: Not really. Homeopathy is much more than herbal medicine. It has medicines sourced from herbs, minerals, chemicals, animal products, organisms, etc. And, very importantly, it is backed by a sophisticated method of medicine preparation, sound scientific principles and deep philosophy.
Myth: Homeopathy cures all diseases.
Fact: No system of medicine can cure all diseases.
Myth: Homeopathy is a placebo therapy.
Fact: Homeopathy is a proven therapy, used successfully for the last 200 years in over 170 countries; supported by scientific studies. It shows once ignorance if one believes that homeopathy is placebo.
Myth: Homeopathy increases the disease before curing.
Fact: Not really. Only some disease such as eczema might worsen, that too in less than 5% of cases if medicines are not professionally prescribed. The whole idea of the increase of disease before a cure is exaggerated.
Myth: Homeopathic medicines contain steroid or cortisone!
Fact: It is absurd to even think that homeopathy may contain cortisone.

Myth: Homeopathy is very fast!
Fact: It is not even very fast. It all depends on the nature of the disease that is under treatment.
