Naturopathic Medicine

Naturopathic medicine is a distinct primary health care system that blends modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine.

​The naturopathic philosophy is to stimulate the innate healing capacity of the person and treat the underlying cause of disease.
Treatments are chosen based on the individual person – their physiological, structural, psychological, social, spiritual, environment and lifestyle factors.

​In addition to nutrition and lifestyle changes, natural therapies may include botanical medicine, vitamin and mineral supplementation & homeopathy.
