Today we are covering the popular Homeopathic detox method created by Tom Jansen, as we continue our series unpacking the different methods of homeopathy.
Homeopathy is a SYSTEM of medicine, that can be used in a variety of methods. Here are the methods we will be covering
- Classical homeopathy
- Banerji Protocols & Practical Homeopathy
- Narayani remedies
- Tom Jansen’s HDT/HC
- Integrative homeopathy
- Homeoprophylaxis
The goal of exploring the methods of homeopathy is to find a homeopath that uses a method of homeopathy that works for you. You may have tried homeopathy once or twice and it didn’t work. It doesn’t mean that Homeopathy is fake, but simply that the method wasn’t right for you.
Let’s jump into and discover more about Tom Jansen’s Homeopathic Detox Therapy.
What is Human Chemistry Method?
Note: the name of Tom Jansen’s method has changed from Homeopathic Detox Therapy to Human Chemistry Method, but the method remains the same.
Human Chemistry Method (aka Homeopathic Detox Therapy) aims to rebalance the body at a cellular level. It uses homeopathy to remove blockages and balance the body’s system. It works on the miasmatic level, yet also gives constitutional treatment, while addressing the reason for the client’s visit. (may remove as too high language terms)
The method also uses vitamins, supplements, hormones, neurotransmitters, and at times, new homeopathic remedies.
Benefits of Tom Jansen’s method
- Detailed & specific
Tom Jansen gives lots of details and directions in his book, Fighting Fire with Fire, on how to do his method. He takes the time to explain how to apply his methodology, troubleshoots case taking and supplies extra information about new homeopathic remedies and how to use them. Tom Jansen offers online courses and webinars to help gain knowledge of different issues and solve them using his method. Often, homeopaths that follow his method will ask for hair analysis or mineral testing to see what the client might be deficient in.
- Structured
Tom Jansen’s method uses ascending potency detox courses with different remedies for different days of the week. Below is a picture of an example prescription.

Downsides of Tom Jansen’s method
- Medical Language
For a person who is not in the medical field or very familiar with homeopathic language, reading Tom Jansen’s book may present a bit of a challenge. It would be good to have a solid understanding of homeopathy or a good background in the medical field before studying his method
- High chance of aggravation if not well-prescribed
This was my experience. I am a sensitive individual and every time that the potency was changed, my symptoms would flare up and get worse for awhile. It took discipline to stick to the course of remedies. I’m glad I did as afterwards I felt so much better. The same was true for another family member who used this method. If you are a sensitive individual, this may not be the best method for you.
- Costly to replicate at home
Since Tom Jansen’s method uses remedies in multiple potencies and often new homeopathic remedies that can be hard to source, it can get costly. Investing in a remedy kit and even a remedy maker is often needed if you are trying to do this method on your own.
- Time intensive
The key to this method (like all of the other methods of homeopathy) is getting a complete picture of the person. There are 6 factors that Tom Jansen’s methodology takes into account, and each should be covered to avoided aggravation. If you love details & science, this method may be for you, and you can learn more about this method by visiting Tom Jansen’s website or reading his book: Fighting Fire with Fire.

Conclusion
Tom Jansen’s Homeopathic Detox Therapy presents a highly structured option for those interested in holistic health and detoxification. I wouldn’t recommend trying this on your own.
However, if this method intrigues you, research and talk to homeopaths that specialize in this method.
Here at Radiant Homeopathy, we appreciate the work of Tom Jansen and have learned a lot from him. His idea of ascending potencies to clear the body of toxins is brilliant and very effective. My mom and I have his books and get challenged in new ways every time we read them. But for sensitive individuals that react easily, I have found that other methods of homeopathy work more gently on the body.
It’s a big world out there. Have fun learning and exploring!
