NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE
WHAT IS NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE?
Naturopathic medicine is based on the principle that the body has an innate ability to heal and that we can support this healing by finding and removing the root cause of disease. Naturopathic medicine combines traditional healing teachings with modern evidence-based medicine, bringing patients a holistic approach to wellness. We focus not only on addressing immediate symptoms, but also on improving overall health and preventing future illness.
Naturopathic physicians are trained doctors who are licensed to test, diagnose and prescribe. We prefer to choose the least invasive treatments first, and will turn to pharmaceuticals or an appropriate referral when needed. Naturopathic medicine is a good choice for patients looking for more or different options than conventional medical providers may offer.
