A recent study spearheaded by the HOHM Foundation’s Office of Research provides fascinating insights into who uses homeopathy, why they choose it, and what conditions they seek to address.

Clinically significant improvement in physical and psychological health is found across a diverse population of people with a wide variety of long-term conditions. These results suggest that individualized homeopathic care in a teaching clinic setting proved to be valuable for complex chronic health problems, and that further similar, confirmatory research is warranted.

Given the significant strain on conventional healthcare systems during the early stages of the pandemic, the complementary medicine interventions studied here offer important considerations for meeting the demands for COVID-19 acute care with agile and adaptive complementary medicine models.

Collective SRP symptoms from the pandemic provided the opportunity to study the hallmark features of COVID-19 in depth. The importance of these symptoms highlights the applicability of Hahnemannian principles and good case- taking practices.

Contingent Evolution: Homeopathy and 19th Century Biomedicine explores how the uptake of bacteriological discoveries into the canon of 19th century medical knowledge was an interdependent and non-linear process in both orthodox and heterodox spaces. 

This preliminary study presents some potentially significant uptake, usage and attitude markers that stand to shed light on the practice of homeopathy and the place of emerging technologies such as repertory software. Ultimately, more research is needed to help identify and address the challenges, risks and tensions around integration of practice-enhancing technologies in CM educational and clinical settings to best serve the diverse and changing needs of practitioners.
