Visiting a Homeopath

He said the injections he applied in her neck were made from "skaap selle".

And my good friend, Abzo, I was with her.

1) he's not a homeopath
2) he is illegally performing medical procedures - please report him
3) cell therapy (which is what your wife had) is a well known scam. http://www.quackwatch.org/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/Cancer/cellular.html It is often used to try scam cancer sufferers, and cancer.org have had to put a page up explaining the extensive dangers and the fact that it is a scam.
4) I canot believe that people willingly visit these scam artists and then allow them to go as far as to inject them with random, dangerous substances, without ever questioning it.

What.The.Fsck?!

I find it really hilarious how people claim that homeopathy can't work because it's just water but when presented with something that's not just water and works they claim it can't be homeopathy by invoking their false definition. Some people on here just can't help falling for circulatory arguments it seems.

For the umpteenth time homeopathy is not just water as the FDA to their embarrassment found out.

Homeopathy is not synonymous with home remedies

Homeopathy is similar cures similar. That's the only requirement.


Plant extracts mostly.

I have a bottle of homeopathic pills called Tonzilite. I got that from my mother when I had tonsilitis a while back. I would love to see that get rid of it, but, alas, it's not so easy :(

You are simply wrong Swa. This idea of 'like cures like' was around long before the invention of homeopathy, and exists in many cultures and in many forms which do not resemble homeopathy in any way.

Homeopathy, on the other hand, was created in 1796 by Samuel Hahnemann, and although based on similia similibus curentur ("like cures like"), homeopathic remedies are prepared by repeatedly diluting a chosen substance in alcohol or distilled water, followed by forceful striking on an elastic body, called succussion. Each dilution followed by succussion is said to increase the remedy's potency. Dilution usually continues well past the point where none of the original substance remains. This is what differentiates homeopathy from other systems based on 'like cures like'.

Hahnemann (who created the term homeopathy) believed that large doses of drugs that caused similar symptoms would only aggravate illness, so he advocated extreme dilutions of the substances; he devised a technique for making dilutions that he believed would preserve a substance's therapeutic properties while removing its harmful effects. Hahnemann believed that this process aroused and enhanced "the spirit-like medicinal powers of the crude substances". He gathered and published a complete overview of his new medical system in his 1810 book, The Organon of the Healing Art, whose 6th edition, published in 1921, is still used by homeopaths today.

Homeo means same, and pathos means feeling, in this context, suffering, so from its name only, homeopathy means treating illness with like substances.

I'm running low. I need to get back to the Amazon Basin to fetch me some Giant Monkey Frogs so my homeopath can make me some Kambo Sticks (Diluted 6 million parts to 1 on a bamboo stick) which I then chew all day long like pencils.

I've got a headache so I'm going to go buy a thrash metal album, melt it down and dilute it 30 times, put a drop on some sugar and then I'm good to go!

Can you imagine a homeopathic drug dealer?

"Dude I've got the stuff, its totally legit. My supplier says this is the strongest herbwort solution known to man - its been diluted 10 million to one!"
"Are you sure that is safe?"
"yeah dude, its water. I mean...

May I suggest The Foo Fighters?... live recording of December 13, 2011 when the Foo Fighters played in New Zealand, their concert was recorded on the GeoNet seismograph for the duration of their 2½ hour set. Therefore by my calculations the album needs to be microwaved and blowtorched with a creme brulee torch and diluted 100 times with 1 cup of sugar which will become a fondant carrier of diluted Vinyl. Yes that's the proper Homopathetic dilution, acording to my Blue diagnostic manual.
then carefully mould the whole lot into a suppository shape (missile head), add a dab of K-Y and lie in the recovery position and fire it up in the direction of your skull. That is the Homopathetic emergency delivery system and headache will be gone within 20 min :D

Homeopaths make a lot of sense when normal medicine simply has no affect...(effect??) Things like the effect of acidic foods on the body is not covered by conventional medicine for example. Eating right has a lot more affect than medicine IMO for a number of conditions. Why take antiacids for example if you should really be doing some exercise, giving up wheat, and losing weight?
 
But that has nothing to do with homeopathy!

A lot of people confuse homeopathy with complementary and alternative medicine. The two are not the same! Homeopathy is just the best known example.

That is not what homeopathy is for, you get dieticians to advise on diet requirements. Homeopaths diagnose patients and then prescribe homeopathic remedies for them - any tool can tell you to change your diet to help with heartburn.
