How does it differ from naturopathy, acupuncture and herbal medicine?
While homeopathy and these healing arts are similar in that they do not employ drugs or other conventional medical procedures, each one is also quite distinctive. Naturopathy is a broad term encompassing a host of natural healing arts ranging from nutrition to water cures. Acupuncture is one branch of Oriental Medicine that stimulates and balances the body’s energy. Herbal medicine, also known as “Botanical Medicine”, uses material doses of plant substances for treatment. Homeopathy is generally considered a natural healing art. It does not originate in the Orient, nor does it use material doses of substances.
