Homeopathy is not bunk technically... it works by the placebo effect, which can help peripheral diseases. It is just not that effective.

Regards to the comments of all alternative medicine 'doctors' are quacks, I just have to say I've met MD's that are not right in the head with there ideas, same goes with Ph.D's I've met in most sciences. So in every industry there are quacks and people that are good at their job.

That being said if you go to a chiropractor for curing diseases or to do energy testing to find if you are allergic to something then you deserve to be taken by that quack. If you go to the chiropractor for back pain (or similar problems) then they can do wonders.
