Ironicamente, aínda que a AMA atacaba toda a homeopatía como curandeirismo, os médicos homeopáticos educados estaban expulsando a curandeiros non adestrados das súas filas.

Na década de 1970, a homeopatía regresou de forma significativa, e as vendas de produtos homeopáticos multiplicáronse por 10. Esta tendencia correspóndese co [[movemento da Nova Era]], e pode en parte deberse a unha preferencia ás veces pouco crítica polos produtos "naturais", e tamén ao longo tempo de consulta cos pacientes que realizan os médicos homeopáticos, que psicoloxicamente fan sentirse ao paciente mellor atendido e máis escoitado.
