Naturopathic medicine focuses on prevention and the self-healing process through natural therapies. In recent years naturopathic medicine has witnessed a rapid increase in the public interest and works on the philosophy of prevention, wellness, and respect for nature's innate healing ability.
Naturopathic diagnosis focuses on recognizing the underlying causes of disease. The naturopathic therapies are supported by research drawn from peer-reviewed journals from many disciplines, including naturopathic medicine, clinical nutrition, traditional medicine, European complementary medicine, pharmacognosy, phototherapy, homeopathy, psychology, and spirituality.
Minimally Invasive
The naturopathic medications and procedures are as minimally invasive as possible. If the natural treatment methods are not effective, you can be advised on an alternative course of action.
Natural Healing
Naturopathic medicine emphasizes the body's own ability to heal. They help the patient utilize this power by creating a healthy internal and external environment.
Identify the Causes
