Homeopathy
Homeopathy (pronunciation: i/ˌhoʊmiˈɒpəθi/; also spelled homoeopathy or homeopathy) is a form of alternative medicine in which practitioners treat patients using highly diluted preparations that are believed to cause healthy people to exhibit symptoms that are similar to those exhibited by the patient. The collective weight ofscientific evidence has found homeopathy to be no more effective than aplacebo.
