Case report of two siblings with multi- morbidities receiving homeopathic treatment for one year
Conclusion Treatment by a homeopath employing a variety of homeopathic methodologies and medicines over 1 year was associated with improvements in ADHD status, patient generated outcomes, parent reported pathology and reduction in conventional medication. No causal conclusions on treatment efficacy can be derived, nor the effects of homeopathic medicines separated out from the reduction in conventional medicines. More systematic research is warranted to tease out these effects, and should document treatment by homeopaths as experienced in clinical practice to explore therapeutic potential.

Facilitating a pragmatic comparative trial of the clinical and cost effectiveness of homeopathic treatment for ADHD

It is associated with many negative outcomes and a drain on resources across nationally funded support agencies such as education, criminal justice, social work and health care. Any new intervention would need to show clinical and cost effective improvements to these departments and demonstrate improvements in areas of unmet need including: the management of emotion (especially anger); treatment of ADHD in ASD; safety and side effects; and long term effectiveness. Current ...

Crisis on Starting a Working Life
Homoeopathic Links 2014; 27: 156-160DOI: 10.1055/s-0034-1368649Entering professional life is a major hurdle for many young people. In Switzerland, adolescents are expected to know by the age of fifteen whether they want to aim for a university education or enter an apprenticeship for a practical profession. The choice frequently overtaxes them, with many mistakenly choosing the wrong track. This is reflected in a dropout rate of 28.8 % among apprentices. Such mistakes are associated with a range of psychological problems. If they cannot be resolved, there is a great danger that the patient completely drops out of normal ...
