Naturopathic Medicine

Do you sleep well?  Feel rested?  Energized?  Do you have a chronic health issue that is weighing you down? Chronic pain?  Do you get sick with every 'bug' that comes down the pike?  Do you have a sense that things could be better, but nobody's really gotten to the root of things?  Would you like to explore a more natural approach? 

Naturopathic doctors combine the wisdom of nature with the benefits of modern science. Naturopathic medicine uses a wholistic approach that is proactive, focusing on prevention, as well as comprehensive diagnosis and treatment.  Traditional healing methods, principles and practices are used, along with more modern therapeutic modalities, and occasionally prescription medications. The goal of treament is to minimize risk to the patient, while helping the body heal and restore itself and maintain optimal health.  

Naturopathic medicine adheres to six principles:

  1. First Do No Harm - Primum non nocere

  2. The Healing Power of Nature - Vis medicatrix naturae

  3. Discover and Treat the Cause, Not Just the Effect - Tolle causam

  4. Treat the Whole Person - Tolle totum

  5. The Physician is a Teacher - Docere

  6. Prevention is the best "cure" - Praevenire
