Naturopathic Medicine

Naturopathic medicine is a primary healthcare profession. Naturopathic doctors (NDs) look at the whole person, including mental, emotional, and physical concerns. The goal is to identify and treat the underlying cause of disease. Every patient is different, so their treatment plan will be unique and individualized to them. The focus is on prevention and the use of natural & less invasive therapies to stimulate the body’s innate ability to heal. Naturopathic doctors spend more time with patients to educate and empower them to make lifestyle changes.
