Who We Are

Holistic Health Research was formed in 2003 when a small group of committed people from diverse backgrounds came together with a common vision to improve Canadians' health by exploring the potential of complementary and alternative medicine.

That small group grew larger as we spread the word about our work, and reached out to a broader group of consumers, researchers, health professionals and health organizations to seek their involvement and advice about what needed to be done.

Holistic Health Research is proud of its dynamic, innovative team of experts and leaders.
