What is Naturopathic Medicine?

Holistic care from the foundations of health

Naturopathic medicine "Naturopathy" is a distinct system of health care that emphasizes prevention and the body's innate self-healing processes through the use of natural therapies. ND's blend centuries-old knowledge and utilize the philosophy that nature is the most effective healer.

Naturopathic medicine focuses on identifying the underlying cause(s) of disease. Integrative therapies typically involve natural interventions first, but when necessary conventional treatments are recommended as well

The foundation of Naturopathic medicine is based on six principles:

First Do No Harm
The Healing Power of Nature
Discover and Treat the Cause, Not Just the Effect
Treat the Whole Person
The Physician as Teacher
Prevention is the Best Cure
