Less is more- classical homeopathy – Joseph Feuerstein, MD





Homeopathy, Integrative Medicine & Your Questions

Last year Joseph Feuerstein, MD gave us a Q and A in front of a packed crowd at KSG. As a Physician who trained with Andrew Weil, MD and runs the Integrative Medicine Consultation program Stamford Hospital, Dr. Feuerstein understands the intersection between medicine, nutrition, and homeopathy. His approach is both pragmatic and Dr. Feuerstein will talk about Homeopathy, Integrative Medicine and then field any questions you may have.

Homeopathy is one of the more controversial alternative medical modalities, based on the work of 17th century German physician, Samuel Hahnemann. It espouses the theories of ‘like curing like’, ‘potentization’ and ‘provings’.  Dr Feuerstein will review the history, philosophy and clinical studies for the effectiveness of homeopathy as well as teach about some commonly used remedies.
