Homeopathy is a branch of medicine originated in Germany in 1794, which is based on the principle of
The Law of Similars. In a way, it is an advanced form of vaccination; whereby a substance which is capable of producing a disease like state is administered to the patient, but in a very minute dose, to cure the similar disease.
Homeopathy works much beyond vaccination. Here, the dose administered is unbelievably minuscule, which renders if absolutely harmless yet very powerful.
Contrary to the conventional medicine, the action of homeopathy is much safer, deeper acting, somewhat slower, and results much longer lasting by energizing the body's curative powers.
Homeopathy is amongst the youngest and latest medicines calling for more research and promotion.

There are theories on how exactly homeopathic medicine works. As supported in major clinical trials and in practice, it is believed to be working by stimulating body's own healing mechanisms.
For example, in case of diseases which are caused by infection, it seems to be working by stimulating the production of antibodies, defense blood cells, etc.
In cases of immune diseases, it seems to be working by correcting the immune mechanism.
In case of painful conditions, by activating body's anti-pain mechanisms.
Similarly, its action must be on the lines of being antispasmodic, anti-allergic, immuno-modulatory, anti-inflammatory, hormone stimulatory, anti-carcinogenic, etc.
Large scale studies alone will allow full exploration of this young science.

Homeopathy is an effective mode of therapy especially in the cases of Ankylosing Spondylitis.
One may expect following in the cases of Ankylosing Spondylitis:
1. Control of the disease process (most impotent)
2. Significant pain relief
3. Improved mobility
4. Reduced dependency on pain killers and other medicines
At Life Force, we have treated and documented over 200 cases of Ankylosing Spondylitis (as on Nov, 2011) and have observed
that the patients who are also on homeopathy, are always better performing than those who are either not on any medication or those who are only on the conventional medicines. Homeopathy is strongly suggested for all cases of AS, earlier the better.
