SIMON KING CLASSICAL  HOMEOPATH since 1993

This homeopathy educational and non-profit website is a labour of love and was written and constructed by Simon King, a classical homeopath with over 15 years clinical experience.

There are over 2000 pages (and growing) of information on how homeopathy works and how to effectively apply it.
Contact me if you have specific questions about homeopathy not answered on this site. All information on this site is (currently) free.



Homeopathy works on real, live patients, not on test tubes. If you understand homeopathy, you'll understand why.

That patients get better from homeopathy there is no doubt, the evidence is there in the patients themselves. The complaint so often presented though is that this is anecdotal evidence and therefore somehow not valid. I find it extraordinary that in a world where the majority entrust their very soul's welfare to beliefs based on anecdotal evidence**, the same majority will not allow anecdotal evidence for their medical welfare.

I really couldn't care less whether homeopathy is 'scientific' or not, nor could I care less whether it can be repeated in test tubes. No matter how it works, what I do care passionately about is that people get to see homeopathy work and do not throw it away like an uncut diamond in the hands of a gardener, i.e. no value is seen in it because it doesn't look like what we expect.

I care that people do not dismiss it out of hand purely because they cannot understand how it works, or because it does not fit into an understanding they have of medicine; one which is limited by systems that are simply not applicable to homeopathy. Those very systems that people try to fit homeopathy into, are often the very reason why patients come to see homeopaths in the first place because it is those systems which have failed the patient, i.e. their doctors couldn't do any thing for them, yet homeopaths often can and do.

Bear in mind that those systems ('scientific', double blind trials etc.) are the same ones that condone those very drugs (that you read about with fairly consistant frequency in the papers) which have been removed from service having been found to be more dangerous than beneficial, or to be worse than placebo (e.g. the recent report on antidepressants having no clinical benefit). All those drugs were sanctioned by exactly the same system that naysayers want to subject homeopathy to.

If something so patently effective by its results (and so very safe) is dismissed by those who may have medical or social status but no expertise in the field of homeopathy, the losers are not only the patients but the countries' health budgets. Homeopathy is extremely cheap compared to conventional Western medicine. The arguements against homeopathy cannot be justified on the grounds that it doesn't work and those who have studied homeopathy will understand why such antagonism as appears in the media is entirely unjustified.

Instead of starting from the position that 'homeopathy can't work therefore it doesn't'; why not take the position that 'patients are cured when they go to see homeopaths so let's investigate how this happens'?


Proof of the pudding?

It's good to question, it's OK to doubt, much better to explore, and really great to actually study:
- what is not good is blind dismissal from misconceptions and half formed lopsided arguements.

So do explore the FAQ's (1) - or if you're really sceptical (scepticism is healthy, denial is not) - why not start by exploring the FAQ's (2)?

and here's an interesting read on the TRUTH ABOUT HOMEOPATHY (reproduced here on this site in case the link gets broken)
