🌍✨ Coming together for the future of homeopathy ✨🌍

This weekend, homeopaths from across South Africa — and beyond — gathered in Cape Town for the HSA Congress 2025. A space to learn, connect, and grow together as we explored the latest scientific advances and the role of homeopathy in shaping modern healthcare. 💚

Grateful for every practitioner, speaker, and supporter who made this moment possible — here’s to building a stronger, healthier future, together. 🌿

At our upcoming congress, Dr. Alexander Tournier of the Homeopathy Research Institute will unpack findings from a major review that mapped 14 different scientific theories exploring the mode of action of homeopathy — everything from water structure ideas to complex systems.

The conversation just got real: scientific advances, research rigor & global experts are coming together at the HSA Congress 2025 in Cape Town this Friday and Saturday. 🌍🔬

We’ll be joined by international researchers like Dr Alexander Tournier and Dr Massimo Mangialavori, alongside local leaders like Prof Ashley Ross and Dr Keith Cloete.

The press has picked up on our story — this isn’t anecdote; it’s evidence in action. Keep your eyes on our page for congress highlights!

Increasingly, medical researchers are examining what are called biomarkers to confirm homeopathic effects on living organisms. It's hard even for skeptics to ignore that kind of evidence.

Researchers in Italy have recently published a paper in the renowned journal "Nature" that looks at the effects of the homeopathic medicine Drosera rotundifolia on gene expression in bronchial cells.

Their findings?
D. rotundifolia did not impair cell viability and was shown to be a stimulant of cell functions by regulating the expression of dozens of genes after 3 h, and the effects were amplified after 6 h of treatment. The main differentially expressed genes encoded ligands of epithelial growth factor receptor, proteins involved in xenobiotic detoxification and cytokines, suggesting that D. rotundifolia could stimulate self-repair systems, which are impaired in airway diseases. Furthermore, D. rotundifolia acts on a complex and multifaceted set of genes and may potentially affect different layers of the bronchial mucosa.
