The Colorado Springs Skeptics invite you to their April monthly meeting. Homeopathy is a billion dollar industry worldwide. While the highest sales for homeopathic remedies are in France, the sales in the United States continue to grow. Homeopathy is a great example of how alternative medicine differs from that of conventional medicine. The criticisms of homeopathy apply to other alternative health treatments as well – including Reiki, magnetic therapy, therapeutic touch, and acupuncture. This month we will get a preview of John. R.'s Skepticamp talk: "Homeopathy: Medicine or Magic." What exactly is homeopathy? Does it have any basis in science? Is it effective? Why is its use becoming more accepted? Location: |
