Unicist Homeopathy and Primary Headache

We present here the outcome of unicist homeopathic therapy of primary headache. A simple score was established to evaluate the results of the homeopathic treatment, based on the Visual Analogue Score, the number of pain attacks, and the patientsʼ ingestion of traditional drugs. Homeopathic amelioration followed Vijayakar rules. From 2007 to 2013, we observed 116 patients affected by headaches: only 39 fulfilled the eligibility criteria. These 39 patients suffered an average of nine pain attacks monthly. The average follow-up was of seventeen months. According to the SCORE, we observed no patients who worsened during homeopathic treatment (SCORE W), six patients were unvaried during therapy (SCORE I, 15.3 %), seven patients had a mild amelioration (SCORE MI, 18 %), eighteen patients had great amelioration (SCORE GI, 46 %) and eight were cured definitively by homeopathy (SCORE H, 20.5 %). A high percentage of patients reduced or stopped the use of painkillers and this is an important achievement. The percentage of 67 % of good results (SCORE GI plus H) seems encouraging. We conclude that unicist homeopathy in treating primary headache can reach formidable results, even the eradication of the pathology, which is almost impossible with traditional medicine.[...]Sonntag Verlag in MVS Medizinverlage Stuttgart GmbH & Co. KG Stuttgart · New YorkArticle in Thieme eJournals:Table of contents  |  Abstract  |  Full text
