Hello Friend,
Of all the holistic options for treating pets, homeopathy is the one which gets the skeptics.
But hundreds of thousands of people, and virtually ALL holistic veterinarians are convinced that it helps immensely.
My experience has been that some homeopathy does not appear to work, while other remedies seem especially beneficial- in some cases better than ANY conventional treatment, and without side effects.
In my private member site, Dr Jones' Inner Circle, you can get every video I have ever produced, including my new ones on HOW to use Homeopathy..

The evidence for homeopathy
There is a growing body of clinical evidence to show that homeopathy has a positive effect.
Randomised controlled trials
The widely accepted method of proving whether or not a medical intervention works is called a randomised controlled trial (RCT). One group of patients, the control group, receive placebo (a “dummy” pill) or standard treatment, and another group of patients receive the medicine being tested.
The trial becomes double-blinded when neither the patient nor the practitioner knows which treatment the patient is getting. RCTs are often referred to as the “gold standard” of clinical research.
Up to the end of 2013, a total of 188 RCT papers in homeopathy (on 100 different medical conditions) have been published in good quality scientific journals. 44% of the RCTs have a balance of positive evidence, 5% have a balance of negative evidence, and 47% have not been conclusively positive or negative; 4% of the RCTs do not contain data that are suitable for analysis.
Arthritis Study

Fisher PAG (2000). A randomized controlled trial comparing topical
piroxicam gel with a homeopathic gel in osteoarthritis of the knee.
Rheumatology; 39:714–719.
Conclusion: The homeopathic gel was as least as effective, and as well tolerated as the NSAID gel.
