What Is Naturopathic Medicine?
Naturopathic medicine is a system that uses natural remedies to help the body heal itself. It embraces many therapies, including herbs, acupuncture, exercise, and nutritional counseling.
How Does It Work?
The goal of naturopathic medicine is to treat the whole person -- that means mind, body, and spirit. It also aims to heal the root causes of an illness -- not just stop the symptoms.
At Natural Healing Health Centre, our naturopathic doctors would give you an in-depth assessment. They’ll ask questions about your health history, stress levels, and lifestyle habits. They may order lab tests.
Afterwards, they will cater a treatment plan to you personally. Naturopathic medicine focuses on education and prevention, so your doctor may give you diet, life style, exercise, or stress management tips. They might use complementary medicine--like herb medicine, supplements, and acupuncture -- in addition to naturopathic treatments.
Will It Work for My Condition?
Naturopathic medicine is used for a wide range of health issues. Some of the more common ones include:
