As the owner of a busy homeopathy clinic, I ask my patients lots of questions. I've been wondering where the recent surge in homeopathy has come from, so I ask them about it. Over and over, the answer goes something like this, "I tried it for my terrible headaches which had gone on for three years since the birth of my baby. My days were a fog of pain and tiredness.

The Mysteries of Homeopathy and what I tell my clients
How does Homeopathy work? One of the reasons homeopathy can be so tricky to grasp is because it requires a leap of understanding of concepts. Concepts which are outside the box of mainstream science.

Homeopathy and true scepticism
I would like to invite my friends to exercise true scepticism when it comes to the topic of homeopathy. I hear you thinking “Huh? I thought you were annoyed with the sceptics?” Well, perhaps yes, but not in the way that you may surmise. Despite it being widely used around the world, Homeopathy is an alternative form of medicine which sceptics love to attack and make comments about.
