Homeopathy is a

pseudoscientific[1][2][3][4] form of alternative medicine. It is the official journal of the London-based Faculty of Homeopathy. The journal was established in 1911 as the British Homoeopathic Journal, resulting from a merger between the British Homoeopathic Review and the Journal of the British Homoeopathic Society.[5][6] It uses its current name since 2001[7] and the editor-in-chief is Robert Mathie
.
