Is homeopathy useful for acute problems such as coughs, fevers, sore throats, or ear aches?
Homeopathic remedies are not directed at removing symptoms, killing germs, or curing illness, but rather toward helping the body strengthen overall, so that the individual’s own healing capacities function at a higher level. At times it may be in a person’s best interest to let the body fight off mild symptoms to help build its immune system function. In addition, many people find that acute illnesses occur less frequently the longer they use homeopathic constitutional care.
