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. Three days after the homeopathic, they were gone. I could hardly believe it, after being to so many specialists and having CAT scans, x-rays and thyroid tests etc done.” No wonder there is a homeopathy surge worldwide.
So this blog was first written in 2016 and today August 2024 I am editing it because the surge has literally become an explosion.
As you can imagine these people come to love homeopathy. Love? Is it a strange thing to feel when we are talking about what is essentially a medicine. I’ve been asking why this love phenomenon happens. I feel it myself, after 35 years in practice and I still love my job.
After quizzing people, here are the top reasons for our homeopathy surge explosion
- Homeopathy works with your body not against it. It works by stimulating the body’s immune system to reduce susceptibility to disease. Health is improved generally, rather than merely taking away symptoms. The whole person is treated, including mental and emotional problems as well as physical problems. Literally balancing your whole system and improving quality of life.
- The remedies are part of an extremely effective system of medicine. They provide long-lasting relief from many acute and chronic problems.
- There are no penalties, only benefits. Homeopathic treatment offers a gentle and non-invasive approach to health, producing no toxic side effects, no dependency or addiction, and no withdrawal.
- There is a growing volume of research confirming the activity of highly diluted substances. We might start to rewrite the textbooks and re-brand homeopathy as nano-medicine.
- The remedies are used at home to provide relief for minor problems such as bruises, sprains, insect bites, gastric upsets, etc. However more serious complaints should be treated by a qualified homeopath. No wonder there is a homeopathy surge around the world because it is such a usable medicine in the clinic and in the home.
- Here’s a Buddha quote: “No matter how hard the past, you can always begin again.” Homeopathy helps people to start again after struggling with health problems or emotional problems.
- Homeopathic medicines are used independently or along with conventional drugs and other therapies (with the full knowledge of your other healthcare providers). They are sometimes used to alleviate unpleasant side effects of conventional medicine.
- Homeopathy is a green medicine
- After our many recent global viral infections, people crave transparency and truth telling. They are craving an ethical medicine system. They are sick of glib answers and consequently have had an increase in their health literacy – en masse we now know more about how to research health things like claims, options, side effects and alternatives.
- “I would add to that list the process of feeling deeply held and heard in the homeopathic consultation. My patients often report that they have further “drop ins” and understand themselves more deeply after the consultation process and that this moves them further along the path of their own healing.” This beautiful paragraph comes from Carli Osborne
Homeopathy is cost effective
- Homeopathy is cost-effective especially when compared to over-the-counter and prescription drugs.
Homeopathy is sustainable medicine
- There is no adverse impact on the environment because there is no waste of energy or natural resources in the manufacturing process. This results in no pollution of the water supply, oceans, or dump sites when used. In fact, homeopathy is the ultimate Green Medicine!
Millions of people use homeopathy
- Homeopathy is the medicine of the future. Homeopathy is the second most widely-used system of medicine in the world. It is available in most countries and a global homeopathy surge means that there are between 300-500 million patients worldwide who use it.
Homeopathy is now on the Skilled Occupations List for Immigration
The Skilled Occupation List (SOL) is a list of skilled occupations that are in high demand by the Australian economy. The intention of the list is to meet the long term shortages of occupations, rather than any immediate shortages. If anybody is thinking of applying for certain visa subclasses, their occupation must be on the SOL.
What does it mean now that Homeopathy is on the list?
There are several benefits for the industry overall:
- An increase in Homeopaths, offering more health options for Australians
- There is likely to be an increase in constructive Homeopathy based support available to Australians, lifting the mainstream understanding of homeopathy
- This has opened a path for those wishing to emigrate to Australia to study Homeopathy first
- Government Agencies are supporting the growth of Homeopathy
- More Homeopaths in Australia has the potential to increase Australian Homeopathy research
