10 April 1755 was the day Samuel Hahnemann was born. The discoverer of the natural principles that underpin homeopathy could not have envisioned that 256 years later homeopathy, the medical art and science he developed from those principles, has spread right around the World, is used by millions of people every day and is practised by 100s of thousands of homeopaths and medical doctors. Yet even now homeopathy remains controversial simply because it’s mechanism of action is still not fully elucidated and it poses a perceived threat to the current paradigm and practices of the medical and pharmaceutical establishment, just as it did in Hahnemann’s day.
That homeopathy works there is no doubt, how it works still needs to be fully established. To honour Hahnemann’s birth we offer a short résumé of the growing body of clinical evidence for the effectiveness of homeopathy in musculo-skeletal complaints. With an aging population becoming an increasing challenge to healthcare and to healthcare budgets, and in the face of the increasing awareness of the adverse affects of NSAIDS and steroids in patients suffering musculoskeletal complaints, the role of homeopathy in this important area needs to be taken into serious consideration.
