Available as needed. The Healing Power of Nature Naturopathy is a unique, holistic medicine based upon its own philosophy of health and disease. It is defined as an art, science, philosophy and practice following definite physical, chemical, biological, mental and spiritual laws. A Naturopathic doctor is trained to find and remove the underlying cause of a disease, and treat the whole person. The naturopathic approach to health care can prevent minor illness from developing into more serious or chronic degenerative diseases.
Naturopathic medicine is effective in treating most health problems, whether acute or chronic.
Naturopathic medicine recognizes and respects the power of the human body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. The naturopathic doctor uses techniques that work gently in harmony with these self-healing abilities. It avoids those treatments that might cause new illness or complicate the existing disease. Naturopathic doctors teach people how to restore and maintain their own health by living in harmony with themselves and their environment. Health and disease are often a reflection of the way we choose to live.
