What is Naturopathy?

Naturopathic Medicine is a system of medicine founded on an honored medical principle: Nature heals. The body has the inherent ability to establish, maintain, and restore health. The naturopathic physicians role is to facilitate and support this process by:

Identifying and removing the underlying cause(s) of disease
Recognizing the healing power of nature
Utilizing safe and effective natural treatments
Treating the whole person and not merely the symptoms of the disease
Educating patients ("doctor as teacher")
Emphasizing prevention

Whether you have specific health concerns, or simply want to become healthier, Naturopathic Medicine can help balance and restore physical, mental, and emotional function, as well as enhance vitality. Examples of some benefits include:
