Naturopathy Explained

Naturopathic Medicine (aka Naturopathy) is a licensed primary healthcare profession that integrates science and western medical diagnostics with a wide variety of non-pharmaceutical treatments to improve how the body functions. The focus is on assessing all systems in the body together to identify and treat the fundamental cause of illness, rather than addressing each symptom individually.

After a thorough medical history intake, physical exam, and review of relevant lab testing, a Naturopathic Doctor will make individualized treatment recommendations drawing on a variety of natural medicine disciplines including:

  • Clinical Nutrition & Dietary Changes
  • Vitamins & Nutritional Supplements
  • Herbal Medicine
  • Acupuncture
  • Vitamin Injections
  • Lifestyle Counselling

In following an integrative approach to medicine, Naturopaths work in conjunction with conventional healthcare professionals, offering treatment solutions that complement medical prescriptions and care.
