How Homeopathy Treats Hair Loss

Homeopathy is the administration by solution, pellet or injection of a curative substance that has been diluted to the point that it has no molecular structure. Healing occurs because the minute dose of the substance mimics the ailment and prompts an effect known as "like cures like." Just one homeopathic remedy can remedy several conditions at once and simultaneously heals physical, mental and emotional issues.
