WHAT IS NATUROPATHY?

Naturopathic medicine is a form of primary health care that emphasizes prevention, treatment and optimal health using methods and substances that encourage an individual’s self-healing process.

Naturopathic physicians:

• Identify and remove obstacles to healing and recovery
• Identify and remove the underlying causes of illness rather than suppress symptoms
• Use methods and medicinal substances that reduce the risk of harmful side effects
• Educate their patients and encourage self-responsibility for health
• Treat the whole person, considering an individual’s physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental, and social factors.
• Assess risk factors, heredity and susceptibility to disease by making appropriate interventions in partnership with their patients to prevent illness.
