What is Naturopathic Medicine? Over 2,400 years ago Hippocrates, also known as the Father of Medicine, promoted "the healing power of nature." He believed in the body's natural healing ability, when supported by adequate rest, a healthy diet, and good hygiene. Naturopathic Medicine is based on this ancient philosophy and has been practiced in North America since the early 1900s. How is it different? Naturopathic Medicine is an integrated healthcare system that focuses on preventing disease and maximizing overall well being. With a holistic, whole person approach, Naturopathic practitioners use a combination of physical exams and advanced lab tests to find the cause of the illness, and use evidence based natural therapies to treat the cause, leading to symptom relief. Every patient is unique. Therefore during consultations, Naturopathic practitioners conduct intensive medical history research to formulate an individualized treatment plan. Some therapies include nutrition and lifestyle counseling, herbal medicine, nutritional supplements and regenerative injections. |
