WHAT DIFFERENTIATES HOMEOPATHY FROM ALLOPATHY (CONVENTIONAL MEDICINE)?
In Homeopathy, the treatment program is customized and individualized to the patient, with the intent of removing the underlying cause by determining the underlying disturbance. The goal of the homeopathic treatment is to encourage the body to return to a natural state of balance and health. Conventional (allopathic) medicine generally treats a patients physical symptoms. This treatment might also involve controlling, suppressing or eliminating the symptoms. Ideally your homeopath and conventional physician can work hand in hand for your benefit. Gradually, as more conventional medical doctors are learning about and using Homeopathy, old prejudices are beginning to change. Some open-minded physicians are referring their unsolvable or baffling cases to homeopaths, or are incorporating Homeopathy into their own practices. Many conventional medical students are eager to learn about Homeopathy, as well as other forms of alternative medicine and nutrition.
