As some may be aware factions of the medical establishment and media are trying to ban Homeopathy from the NHS. This is part of a wider campaign to discredit Homeopathy. Did you know what they have been doing at the Bristol Homeopathic Hospital for years? See the article below or click here for the full story: http://www.britishhomeopathic.org/research/homeopathic_hospitals/Bristol_study.html
Bristol patient outcome study
One of the most comprehensive patient outcome surveys was an analysis of over 23,000 outpatient consultations at the Bristol Homeopathic Hospital from November 1997 to October 2003. This represented over 6,500 individual patients whose outcome was recorded at follow-up. More than 70% of these follow-up patients recorded clinical improvement following homeopathic treatment.
| Clinical condition | % follow-up patients showing clinical improvement |
| Asthma (under 16s) | 89% |
| Chronic fatigue syndrome | 72% |
| Crohn’s disease/ulcerative colitis | 76% |
| Depression | 71% |
| Eczema (under 16s) | 82% |
| Headache/migraine | 74% |
| Irritable bowel syndrome | 71% |
| Menopausal syndrome | 77% |
| Rheumatoid arthritis | 70% |
Many of the patients in the analysis had previously received mainstream medical intervention at the secondary care level and had either failed to respond satisfactorily or had been unable to tolerate the medication prescribed.
Homeopathy therefore may achieve positive clinical outcomes in certain conditions that have not yet been proven in RCTs, such as Crohn’s disease, depression, eczema, headache, and menopausal syndrome.
