The action of a homeopathic remedy is very specific to cause and effect. An example: A popular anti-inflammatory drug Brufen will reduce inflammation of any tissue in the body irrespective of the pathology, but Aconite, a Homeopathic remedy, which can be used in this similar situation can not be used without considering the specific cause, the pathology, and the tissue affected. This specificity in Homeopathy makes a prescription much more focused and results in a cure without undesirable side effects.
In addition to its specific nature, Homeopathic remedies often achieve an effective curative response because it also addresses other factors like Mental & Emotional stress, symptomatic expression of other organs, nutrition, habits, etc, as all of these modulate immunity and affect health.
Homeopathic remedies are free from toxic effects and that’s why in many developed countries more and more people are taking Homeopathy as their first choice of treatment.
