Education & Training
Homeopathic medicines are therapeutically active micro-doses of mineral, botanical and biological substances.

They are reliable and safe drugs, therefore considered by many as an excellent first choice when self-medicating. Homeopathy has been used for more than 200 years, building a remarkable safety record and generating a great body of knowledge.

Today, homeopathy is used by millions of patients in more than 65 countries and recommended by more than 400,000 healthcare providers.

What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a therapeutic method that uses highly diluted natural substances to relieve symptoms.

Principles of Homeopathy
Homeopathy derives from the Greek words homeo, meaning “similar,” and pathos, meaning “suffering” (such as the pathology of a disease). Homeopathy operates on a “like cures like” principle that has been used empirically for more than 200 years, and is now confirmed by an increasing number of research publications. Translated, this means that a patient suffering from symptoms can be treated by micro-doses of a substance capable of producing similar symptoms in a healthy person. Homeopathic medicines stimulate the body’s physiological reactions that restore health, with a very low risk of side effects due to the use of micro-doses.

An Example
An example of how homeopathic medicines work is the similarly of symptoms between a bee sting and a rash. A bee sting swells and itches. If similar symptoms appear from perhaps hives, a rash or even another insect bite, the homeopathic medicine most appropriate to treat these symptoms is actually made from a tiny amount of a bee. Instead of masking symptoms, the medicine sends the body a signal to help it rebalance and heal.

Benefits of Homeopathic Medicines
Natural — The active ingredients in homeopathic medicines are diluted plants, animals and minerals that relieve the same symptoms they cause at full strength (i.e., a micro-dose of coffee bean helps nervousness).

Scope of Use — Similar to other over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, homeopathic medicines can be used to relieve symptoms of a wide range of acute health conditions such as allergies, coughs, colds, flu, stress, arthritis pain, muscle pain, and teething.

Efficacy — Homeopathy has been used for more than 200 years, building a remarkable safety record and generating a great body of knowledge.

Quality-controlled — Homeopathic medicines are manufactured according to the highest standards, complying with specifications of the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States (HPUS) and Drug Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).

Safe — Homeopathic medicines are one of the safest choices for self-treatment.

• No known side effects such as drowsiness
• No interactions with conventional medications or herbal remedies
• No contraindications with pre-existing conditions
• No masking of symptoms

Forms — Like other OTCs, homeopathic medicines are available in a variety of dosage forms such as gels, ointments, creams, syrups, eye drops, and suppositories.

Manufacturing Homeopathic Medicines with Jean Boiron
In this 1937 video, Boiron’s co-founder, pharmacist Jean Boiron, shows us the steps taken to manufacture homeopathic medicines. From harvesting plants in the French Alps to creating mother tinctures in the Boiron laboratory, Jean and his team work diligently to ensure they are producing high-quality medicines for their patients and consumers.

Boiron Story
Boiron was founded in 1932 in Lyon, France, by twin brothers and pharmacists Jean and Henri Boiron.

In 1983, Boiron established a presence in the United States by acquiring John A. Borneman & Sons, Inc., in suburban Philadelphia. Borneman was a family business with four generations of homeopathic expertise focused on supplying medicines directly to physicians and the public throughout the U.S.

The fledgling company, commonly referred to as Boiron USA, employed a staff of seven, who performed all tasks from manufacturing to order processing and shipping. On average, 25 orders were shipped per day.

In 1985, the company’s first president, Daniel Cohen, began to focus on developing the retail sales channel to make Boiron homeopathic medicines more widely available. In 1987, Cohen returned to France, and Thierry Montfort arrived in the U.S. from Lyon to take the helm and continue the expansion in retail distribution. In response to a significant interest in homeopathy in California, Boiron established a branch in Simi Valley, outside of Los Angeles, in 1989.

In 1993, ten years after the acquisition of Borneman, Boiron invested in the construction of a new building and moved from the original Borneman site in Norwood, Pa. to neighboring Newtown Square. The building continues to serve as both the Boiron USA headquarters, as well as the manufacturing and distribution branch for the East Coast.

After heading Boiron Canada for seven years, namesake Thierry Boiron became Boiron USA’s third president in 1995 when Montfort returned to France as a newly appointment board member.

After much growth and the need to contract for larger warehousing on both the East and West Coasts, a newly-built West Coast branch was completed in June 2005. The 20,500 square-foot building offers warehouse capabilities to meet future demands and enhance service. The new building can also accommodate 50 people in a specially-designed conference room to facilitate educational efforts, as Boiron is constantly focused on outreach to the medical community.

Thierry Boiron returned to France to serve as managing direction of the Boiron Group, and Janick Boudazin, former director of medical development, is the U.S. division’s current president and CEO.

Today, Boiron USA has evolved into a leading U.S. homeopathic medicine supplier, fulfilling up to 1,000 orders per day during the busy flu season. The company partners with brokers, distributors and retail chains to make homeopathic medicines available to a wide variety of consumers and physicians. Boiron’s staff of 120+ consists of pharmacists and lab technicians, accounting and IT personnel, marketing & public relations staff, national sales force, customer service, and order fulfillment and shipping professionals—many of whom have impressively long careers with the company.

Boiron's Commitment
As world leader in homeopathic medicines, Boiron is committed to lead by example.

Boiron's Commitment to the Environment
The Boiron Group has a strong sense of obligation to respect the environment. The preparation of our medicines has a limited impact on the environment. The main effects derive from extracting raw materials (continuity of species gathered), water pollution (mainly organic and biodegradable) and waste. As a counterbalance, Boiron promotes re-supplying wild or organically-farmed plants when possible. This sequentially improves the quality of raw materials used.

Additionally, the Boiron Group works with botanist-harvesters well-versed in diagnosing the land and employing harvesting strategies to anticipate continuity of supplies for the future. They generally harvest plants from their natural surroundings, which are then used fresh and wild in accordance with the balance of nature and the specifications of the principal pharmacopoeia.

Boiron's Commitment to Their Employees
It is Boiron’s deep conviction that the key to the performance and the growth of the company depends on the creativity and motivation of all concerned. To promote personal and professional growth, the Boiron Group pioneered a new approach to employee relations 20 years ago—one that fosters dialogue, self-confidence, and flexibility in tasks, hours and individualized work situations. In turn, the employees have a vested interest in the company’s performance through the employee profit-sharing program. Additionally, employees enjoy stress-reducing on-site massages, company-sponsored events to bring together family and friends, and an employee 401K program.
