Society Conference 2026
Palliative Care: the homeopathic approach in oncology
Saturday 16 May 2026
Friends House, Euston Road, London NN1 2BJ
We are pleased to welcome renowned international teacher Dr Farokh Master FSHom (Honorary) to our 2026 annual conference in London.
Join Dr Master for an insightful presentation exploring the use of homeopathy in the context of pain management for patients with advanced metastatic cancer.
Drawing on hospital-based data and a refined case-taking proforma, Dr Master will share clinical experiences from his practice. You will also explore how organ-specific remedies and constitutional prescribing are considered in the care of patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The session will introduce newer remedies in the Materia Medica that are currently being explored in cancer-related practice. This session is designed to inform, inspire, and encourage reflection on the potential role of homeopathy within integrative oncology settings.
In this session, Dr Master will outline internationally recognised protocols and case-history formats referenced in cancer research contexts, followed by real-world case examples supported by video testimonials in which cancer patients describe their personal experiences of receiving homeopathic care alongside conventional treatment.
Dr Master will also present newly developed cancer-related rubrics for the repertory, including those relating to radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and different presentations of carcinosin. He will explain how these rubrics have informed his clinical thinking and case analysis. These insights aim to offer participants a deeper understanding of contemporary homeopathic approaches within oncology practice.
This presentation is for educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice or a claim of efficacy.
