A
Promise of Health specifically chose to use
homeopathic medicine to deliver primary healthcare in its Yucatán clinics.
Proven safe, effective and low cost, for less than $1 a remedy, we
successfully treat patients.
In our
reporting system, we track 94 categories of physical and mental illnesses
and are able to provide medication for them. Most common diseases are caused
by parasites or from bacterial infections. Because of lack of refrigeration
and poor hygiene, diarrhea and colitis are common. During the rainy season
we treat many respiratory illnesses including asthma. Older patients often
suffer from chronic arthritis and rheumatism aggravated by climate, diet and
hard physical work. Mental depression and anxiety are common maladies among
these marginalized people that respond favorably to homeopathic treatment.
Homeopathy
today is practiced extensively in many European and Eastern countries, as
well as Mexico.
As a
medical treatment, the practice of Homeopathy began in Germany more than 200
years ago. Homeopathic physicians in Mexico attend medical school and serve
internships just as any other medical doctor. The difference is they are
trained in homeopathic diagnosis and treatment.
In India,
Mother Teresa initiated a program of homeopathy in the Sisters of Charity
clinics that is thriving today. She said that homeopathic medicine
effectively treats the greatest number of people at the lowest cost. To
