Homeopathy

Homeopathy is a complementary practice based on the principle of “like cures like,” using substances prepared in very low doses. Developed in the 18th century, this approach evaluates a person’s physical and mental symptoms holistically and recommends individualized remedies.

While homeopathy is recognized as a complementary medicine in some countries, its effectiveness remains scientifically debated. Therefore, it is important that homeopathic practices are conducted in accordance with relevant health regulations and under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional.

Homeopathy is the second treatment method recognized by the WHO.

While homeopathy is classified as a complementary medicine practice in some countries, scientific debates regarding its efficacy continue.

It is covered by public health insurance in many countries.
