For Immediate Release
HOMEOPATHY IS MORE EFFECTIVE
More research evidence has emerged that demonstrates homeopathy is more effective than conventional medicine in the treatment of chronic disease.
The study found that patients with chronic diseases, ranging from headache, low back pain, depression, sleeping disorders, sinusitis, atopic dermitis, allergic rhinitis and asthma, benefited more from homeopathy than conventional medicine. The German researchers studied 315 adults and 178 children over a period of 12 months, with half receiving homeopathic treatment, the other half conventional medical care. In both groups, the health status of patients improved, but improvement was greater in patients on homeopathic treatment.
The homeopathic group reported an improvement in the severity of their illness from 57 to 32 points (judged on a scale of 1 to 100), compared to the conventional group from 59 to 44 points. When ‘quality of life’ was compared, the homeopathic group reported ‘moderate’ improvements in physical ailments (with only ‘small’ improvements reported in the conventional group), and ‘large’ improvements in psychological ailments (compared to ‘moderate’ in the conventional group).

This study was produced on behalf of the European Information Centre on Complementary and Alternative Medicine, and approved by the EICCAM Scientific Board prior to circulation. They selected the study as part of their main objective - to provide and disseminate understandable, objective and high-quality information on the safety, effectiveness and efficacy of CAM therapies.
This evidence follows closely on a project organised in Northern Ireland that found acupuncture, chiropractic, homeopathy, osteopathy, reflexology and aromatherapy can offer significant health improvements to NHS patients. Patients receiving homeopathic treatment reported an average 54% improvement in their health and wellbeing.

The ARH warmly welcomes these, and other scientific studies, which confirm what millions of homeopathic patients have known for over 200 years - that homeopathy is a safe and effective medical therapy, and it calls upon the NHS to make homeopathic treatment more readily available to patients throughout the UK.
