The homeopathy market size is projected to reach US$ 42.06 billion by 2031 from US$ 12.88 billion in 2024. The market is estimated to register a CAGR of 18.50% during 2025-2031. Major factors driving the market growth include a surging incidence of lifestyle-related and chronic diseases and the rising adoption of homeopathy medicines. Further, the launch of plant-based and new homeopathic medicines will likely boost the market during the forecast period. However, the lack of clinical evidence for homeopathy medicines is among the market deterrents.
Moreover, as per the World Obesity Atlas 2024, of the 41 million adult deaths yearly due to non-communicable diseases (NCDs), 5 million are driven by high body mass index (BMI). Nearly 4 million of these are from diabetes, stroke, coronary heart disease, and cancer alone. A high BMI is accountable for over 120 million adult person-years lost to these four leading NCDs each year. Chronic conditions like non-communicable diseases, such as diabetes, asthma, cardiovascular diseases, stress, and anxiety, require long-term management. Conventional treatments often come with side effects or limitations. Homeopathy offers a gentle and non-invasive alternative, focusing on treating the patient as a whole rather than just isolated symptoms. This approach aligns well with the needs of individuals suffering from chronic diseases who are looking for safer and more sustainable treatment options.
As per the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2024, an estimated 35 million children under the age of 5 were overweight. Overweight is on the rise in low-and middle-income nations. In Africa, the number of overweight children under five has increased by nearly 12.1% since 2000. Almost half of the children under five who were overweight or living with obesity in 2024 lived in Asia.
Homeopathy's role in managing NCDs such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases is gaining recognition, particularly in countries with high NCD burdens like India. This recognition is supported by government programs under the Ministry of AYUSH, which promote integrative care. The affordability of homeopathic medicines, compared to allopathic treatments, along with their lack of toxic side effects, attracts a diverse range of patients, including children, pregnant women, and the elderly.

According to application, the homeopathy market is categorized into neurology, gastroenterology, respiratory, dermatology, and immunology. The neurology segment held the largest share of the homeopathy market in 2024. Neurological conditions such as migraine, anxiety, and depression are rising steadily in the region, largely due to lifestyle changes, urban stress, aging populations, and greater diagnostic capabilities. According to the WHO, neurological disorders are among the leading causes of disability in low- and middle-income countries. Conventional treatments for neurological conditions often come with long-term side effects or limited efficacy. Therefore, patients are turning to homeopathy for gentle, non-invasive relief. Homeopathic remedies such as Aconite are perceived as safer alternatives to pharmaceutical drugs, especially for chronic conditions. Homeopathy practitioners recommend Aconite for intense, sudden anxiety or panic. Targeting neurological problems, homeopathic remedies with a neuroscience focus are steadily growing in popularity and addressing the needs of patients who require long-term care.
