Homeopathy is not a new type of medicine. It actually precedes allopathic medicine.

Known to the Greek people in the fifth century, homeopathy was introduced in the nineteenth century by the German doctor Samuel Hahnemann as a safe alternative form of medicine.

By the turn of the twentieth century, homeopathy had gained widespread support and was practiced by doctors in more than fifty countries throughout the world. In the early 20th century, North America had no less than 22 homeopathic colleges and 100 homeopathic hospitals.

The Royal Families of Europe and India have always preferred homeopathic treatment to other forms of treatment. The British Royal Family's interests in homeopathy continue to this day.

Homeopathic medicine is now rapidly being embraced throughout the world as an increasing number of people are rediscovering its benefits.
