Should I go and see a homoeopath?


Question:
I've been to the doctors/hospital/surgery, and a fat lot of good that did. Could anything bad come of going to see a homoeopath?

Answers:
If you can find a homeopath that has at least 10 years of experience then go for it!

Homeopathy is a very effective system of treatment when practised properly. The only problem I've found is there aren't many well trained homeopaths around. Homeopathy has become more and more popular over the last few decades, but with that has come a lot of schools whose teaching is less than stellar. Sadly, the result of this is it makes homeopathy look bad when in fact it is poor training available in most schools of homeopathy.

Incidentally, naturopaths are not homeopaths -- they only have a cursory training in homeopathy, and, more often than not apply it in the wrong manner!

Also, herbology is quite different to homeopathy.

I've been lucky enough to have a sound homeopath who has over 50years of practical experience.

Other Answers:
apparently not. if you've already been to everyone else..

a naturopath might jsut have some answers for you. i've had good results with mine - just be open minded. some of the stuff can sound a bit flaky at first - but give it a chance. most of their remedies are all natural, so its unlikely that anything terrible could come of it. and if it doesn't work, then don't go back.

I had a perscription for sleeping pills they are very addictive, and the instructions were do not stop with out doctors permission, and yet they only give you so many. I found a herbal suppliment that I now take to make me sleep and they are not addictive. I take them when I need them. As for the sleeping pills they had a with drawl effect, the herbal pill I take, did not have the after groggy feelings as the perscription. I have taken several herbal remedies over the years and found that they are pure and do not have the side effects as the perscriptions. So if you feel that you want to try, give it your best shot, you are just adding something to your body that it is missing. You might want to check out some books before you spend a lot of money but see a herbalist. In some cases they give you a perscription to what is needed. Hopes this helps.
