Is Homeopathy Different From Other Alternative Medicine Like Acupuncture, Naturopath, Chiropractic And Herbalism?
Yes, although people often get confused and think they are the same. Acupuncture follows the philosophy of Chinese medicine and uses needles on targeted areas of the body to stimulate energy healing. Herbalism uses only plant sources, employing extracts that contain material substances. Homeopathy uses plant, mineral and animal sources and has a special method of preparing remedies that removes all material substance. Hence, homeopathic remedies made from source materials considered poisonous can be safely ingested.
