Do naturopaths practice homeopathy?

Asked 8 days ago

I’m trying to understand the different types of alternative medicine practitioners. I know naturopaths focus on natural healing, and I know homeopathy is a type of natural medicine, but I’m not sure if naturopaths are trained in homeopathy.
Can they prescribe homeopathic remedies, or is that something only homeopaths do? I want to find a practitioner who takes a holistic approach to health, so understanding their scope of practice is really important to me.

From my experience and what I've learned, a lot of naturopaths do practice homeopathy, but not all of them. When I was looking for a naturopath, I found that many of them listed homeopathy as one of the treatments they offer.
My naturopath actually uses homeopathy quite a bit in her practice. She explained to me that it's part of their training, but they learn a bunch of other natural approaches too.
What I like about my naturopath is that she doesn't just stick to one thing. She'll use homeopathy, but also recommends herbs, dietary changes, and even some lifestyle stuff. It feels more well-rounded to me. At the same time, homeopaths specialize in that field, so their homeopathic treatment should be more successful than that of a naturopath.
