What is Naturopathic Medicine?

Naturopathic medicine is a primary health care profession
that is focused on prevention and uses natural treatment options to promote healing. Naturopathic medicine focuses on optimizing health and wellness through individualized patient care and health education. The range of treatments are vast and could include pharmaceuticals, herbal medicine, acupuncture, vitamins, diet changes or physical therapies just to name a few.

Naturopathic doctors treat the individual rather than the symptoms alone. Symptoms of diseases are warning signs of imbalance in the body. The primary goal of Naturopathic treatment is to address the cause of the illness on top of relieving the symptoms.

Everyone can benefit from naturopathic medicine. We treat patients of all ages, and in all stages of health – from acute conditions and chronic illnesses to those who are simply interested in optimizing their health and preventing further illnesses.


Naturopathic Principles

First Do No Harm – Minimize the risks of treatment

The Healing Power of Nature – Support and restore the inherent ability of your body to heal itself

Identify and Treat the Cause – Determine the underlying cause of disease rather than manage symptoms

Treat the Whole Person – Each person is unique and requires individualized care that takes into account their entire body and constellation of symptoms

Doctor as Teacher – Assist patients in understanding their bodies and what treatments are available to them

Disease Prevention and Health Promotion – The approach to healthcare is one that is proactive and based in enhanced lifestyle habits, which decrease the chance of disease.
