Guest guest Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 One thing that impresses me about homeopathy is that it works with animals. Of course that still could be the " clever Hans " effect, you know the horse that could multiply but couldn't do square roots, cos his keeper couldn't. So you need double blind tests, but I don't know of many examples. Can't find the paper you refer to .. --- lightsoutluther wrote: > Hello - > > Is anyone else exploring Homeopathy as an option to > recover from PSSD? > Or has anyone used it to recover from other > illnesses? > > Homeopathy is a topic I've recently begun > researching.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 This is an interesting article on homeopathy: http://www.homeopathic.com/articles/homeopathy_works.php According to the fundamental principles of homeopathy devised by Hahnemann, the best way to reverse medication side effects would be to treat someone with a homeopathic solution of the original medication that caused those side effects. But I'm not aware of any homeopathic practitioners who are doing this...

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 Here is the Wikipedia article on Hahnemann. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/_Hahnemann There is an interesting quote from him concerning conventional medicines: " My sense of duty would not easily allow me to treat the unknown pathological state of my suffering brethren with these unknown medicines. The thought of becoming in this way a murderer or malefactor towards the life of my fellow human beings was most terrible to me, so terrible and disturbing that I wholly gave up my practice in the first years of my married life and occupied myself solely with chemistry and writing.
