HOW IT WORKS
Understanding Homeopathic Medicine
What is Homeopathic Medicine?
Originally founded by Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician and chemist in the 1800s, who discovered that certain substances could address conditions that present similar in the body – otherwise known as the principle of “like cures like.”
During his research he published the Organon, a book outlining the many original Aphorisms and principles of Homeopathy. This book acts as the main teaching guide for students of homeopathy as well as Naturopathic Doctors who incorporate this form of medicine in their practice.
How Homeopathic Medicine Works
Like any pharmaceutical, supplement, or other medicine, quality of ingredients and processing procedures are important. This is why at Radiant Health & Wellness, our main supplier of homeopathic remedies is Boiron – a speciality laboratory headquartered in Messimy, France and the Belgian Unda Homeopathic line.

Our Approach
Our clinic provides access to discussions about integrative modalities such as Homeopathy. When appropriate, these therapies may be explored in collaboration with each patient’s care team.
We do not claim that Homeopathic Medicine is a treatment or cure for any disease. Instead, our role is to educate, inform, and support patients who wish to understand the range of integrative approaches that are being studied internationally and used in an integrative setting to best achieve their health goals.
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Many patients are curious about Homeopathic Medicine as an integrative option to their care. Explore the top five most asked questions.
How are homeopathic remedies made?
Remedies are prepared through a process of serial dilution and succussion (vigorous shaking). While this often yields tiny amounts of the original substance, the process creates energetic or informational properties that influence the body.
What conditions can homeopathic remedies treat?
Homeopathy can address many conditions. To explore if this modality should be incorporated into your comprehensive care, a consultation with a trained practitioner is encouraged.
Is homeopathy safe?
When used as directed, most Homeopathic Remedies are considered low-risk, mainly because they are highly diluted.
What is the scientific evidence for homeopathy?
Research on Homeopathy is controversial, with some studies suggesting possible benefits and others outlining its general safety. A systematic review of homeopathic treatment published in 2023 by Springer Nature found a statistically significant positive effect of homeopathy compared to placebo.
How does Health Canada address homeopathy?
Homeopathic Remedies sold in Canada must be licensed by Health Canada’s Natural and Non-prescription Health Products Directorate (NNHPD). Approved products receive a Natural Product Number (NPN), which confirms they meet safety, quality, and labelling standards.
