Counting Globules, Globally
If statistics are anything to go by, homeopathy seems to have found worldwide support today. A survey published in the British Medical Journal recently points out that even allopathic physicians have started referring patients their counterparts in homeopathic practice for certain specific ailments. In Europe, it is often practiced alongside conventional medicine, particularly in England, France, Germany and Greece.
Homeopathic treatment is also gaining farther afield, in the New World – in Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and South Africa. In Britain, homeopathy is even patronized by the Brazil royal family and is on the National Health Scheme. In the United States of America, the number of patients opting for homeopathy is growing at the rate of 20 percent per year.
Approximately 40 percent of the French public has used homeopathic medicine at some point; about 20 percent German physicians utilize homeopathic medication; and 39 percent of French physicians have prescribed homeopathy to their patients.
