Um, he changed it from "homeopathy" for whatever reason.

What kind of pharmaceuticals is she on, and what for?

There are always natural ways of treating most health problems, but you just gotta be more specific.

geeez people he didn't change anything, homeopathic medicine is a huge part in NATUROPATHIC HEALING. its called an ND instead of an MD. get it??? medical doctor........naturopathic doctor!!!

i run a natural health clinic downtown with one of vancouvers top naturopathic doctors. most first visits are covered under most health care plans.

if your interested in setting something up for her, it can be a life altering experience(in a very very good way). send me a pm or check out my clinics website

^^^well on the other side of it.......theres people that have tried every medical medication known to man and have only had success with naturopathic healing :)

yes, but they're not saying what it is they want to acheive with naturopathy...and asking "how long did it take?" How long did WHAT take? Person's just trying to stir up stupid conversations.

Of course they are. But they admit it.

Thing is, homeopathy is still unaccredited, which means that you're basically rolling the dice with the field. You may get someone who legitimately understands what will make you better, but then you may get someone who's out to make a cheap buck without really doing any work.

For every success story I hear about homeopathy I also hear about someone who ignores the advice of their doctor and just go with homeopathic solutions, and then think that they're all cured and stop treating themselves. Next thing you know, they've got a kidney stone the size of an orange sticking out their back.

I think it's a great field and it'd be nice to see it a little more involved in proper medicine, but honestly, doctors are called "Doctor" for a reason.
