It is maybe a step above chiropractors but that is as far as I will go.

I've seen it work, but I'm generally wary of homeopathic remedies if only because self-medication can lead people to avoid visiting real doctors and getting accurate diagnoses.Things I've seen people successfully alleviated with homeopathic remedies tend to be symptom-based problems like eczema and migraines related to PMS. Both these people didn't have health care at the time, so they couldn't afford prescriptions for the aforementioned problems. I'm not sure if it was the best treatment in either case, but it was effective and cheaper than the alternative.I tend to use herbal remedies for colds (Airborne) and minor things like that, but stick to the doctor for anything viral.

I believe that Anita Bryant tried to have this outlawed back in the seventies....

Believe and be cured: the placebo effect, as usual, is powerful. If you're a scientist though, forget it--when you've diluted a substance so many times that the probability of a *single* molecule remaining is about one in a trillion, you know you've just got ordinary water in front of you.

It's a long way from being accepted by most modern "western" medicine practitioners but it has stood the test of time and helped many people.I myself had a bout with allergies and found the homeopathic method to be just as effective without the lousy side -effects of antihistimines.I wouldn't recommend it for people with severe,life-threatening allergies- but for hay fever and minor symptoms it can't be beat! (It's also less expensive)

Not for me...not that there's anything WRONG with it.
