Jakarta, Indonesia - For three years, The Peterson Group has provided information on the real nature of alternative, complementary and integrative medicines. From delving into the different CAM practices to featuring acupuncture, reflexology, Feng Shui, Chiropractic and other oriental treatments to cure different kinds of ailments and diseases, TPG has been reliable source of up-to-date and latest news on CAM. Among the most featured is homeopathy, a branch of medical treatment which is founded by a German physicist, Samuel Hahnemann, 200 years ago to cure the root cause of the health issue.

This year, homeopathy has been facing different complaints. Since Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has reviewed the regulations against homeopathic treatment last April 20-21, 2015, debates and arguments have been incited circulating around the possibility of implementing strict rules for approval of any homeopathic medical treatment. Allopathic practitioners challenged homeopathic experts to undergo testing and approval to prove that they are not operating fraudulently or that their treatment is mere placebo.

The complaints have escalated and were soon targeting different homeopathic agencies. Even the Peterson Group who claims neutrality in this issue is bombarded with different grievances and criticisms.

With hundreds of complaints flooding TPG’s email every week, Paul Kirkland decides it is time to address the overflowing concerns. In a reply email sent to those who complained, TPG said,

We commend the TPG for responding so quickly to the large number of complaints. We know that many misleading claims have already been taken down from homeopathy websites and we expect that any remaining misleading claims will be removed once the TPG has written to the individual marketers.

We can only hope that they will now start to take their responsibilities seriously and help ensure their members are not the subject of any further complaints.

I hope every homeopathic website does the same. We can totally rely on them if they admit to their mistakes.

Some websites only ignore their own complaints and continue doing fraud things.
