Correspondence Courses in Homeopathy

Thanks to increased interest in alternative therapies, the demand for quailified homeopathic practitioners continues to grow. Homeopathy, a healing modality based on the principle of "like cures like," treats patients with highly diluted solutions that cause symptoms similar to those caused by their disease. A number of institutions throughout the world offer online and correspondence study in classical and other types of homeopathy.
