How is seeing a naturopath for homeopathy any different?
Naturopathic doctors have hundreds of hours of training in homeopathy. Homeopathy is different from allopathic medicines. Although not everyone with a given condition, for example, headaches, will benefit from the same allopathic medicine for headaches, there is a good chance that your doctor would prescribe a similar medicine for people with the same condition. This may temporarily relieve symptoms, but does nothing to strengthen the bodys ability to heal itself and to be free from headaches. For the same condition, your naturopath may prescribe any number of homeopathic remedies, and these are based on your specific symptoms and on you as a whole person. This is why taking the same remedy that worked for one persons headache may have no effect on your symptoms, but another, well-prescribed remedy may result in the increased ability of another person to fully recover over the course of treatment.
