Abstract
A study was carried out to make scientific assessment of the efficacy of homœopathic
treatment for osteoarthropathy. One hundred and sixty patients with this diagnosis
who were attending the Physical Medicine Unit (SMFR) of the IASERJ Central Hospital
were included in the study which compared the combination of physical therapy and
homœopathic treatment with one of physical therapy and conventional medical treatment,
to determine the limits for improvement and their probable causes.
Hypotheses were tested and revealed outstanding results to the effect that 92% of
patients treated with physical medicine and homœopathy could be discharged. The results
confirm that homœopathy used in conjunction with physical medicine gives more rapid
and lasting results in cases of osteoarthropathy.
