Naturopathic medicine is a form of alternative medicine that focuses on holistic and natural approaches to healthcare. It emphasizes the body’s natural ability to heal itself and aims to treat the root cause of a health problem rather than just the symptoms.

Naturopaths must complete 4 years of university as well as a 4-year doctorate degree as part of their training.   They often work in conjunction with conventional medical doctors to provide a comprehensive and integrative approach to healthcare.

Naturopathic medicine is based on the following principles:
First, Do No Harm: utilizing and offering minimally invasive and safe forms of treatment
Healing Power of Nature: recognizing the body’s inherent ability to heal itself
Identify and Treat the Root Cause: removing the underlying causes of disease and not just treating the symptoms
Doctor as Teacher: educating and supporting patients on their health journey, as well as empowering them to take responsibility for their own health
Treat the Whole Person: recognizing the body as an integrated whole including body, mind and spirit
Prevention: promoting a focus on disease prevention, health and wellness
