Naturopathic medicine is a distinct system of health care that addresses the root cause of illness and disease rather than just treating the symptoms. Naturopathic medicine supports the body in its ability to heal. Doctors of Naturopathic Medicine assess the whole person, taking into consideration physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects. Gentle, non-invasive techniques are generally used in order to stimulate the body’s inherent healing capacity. Natural techniques and therapies diagnose and treat both acute and chronic conditions and consequently play an important role in integrative health care. Let me help you take the first step towards a healthier you.

Naturopathic Medicine encompasses many different modalities. The results of a thorough physical exam combined with important laboratory tests help to determine a diagnosis. Naturopathic Medicine is different since it allows for individualized care from the many different modalities, including Nutrition, Botanicals, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Hydrotherapy, Counselling, Acupuncture, IV Therapy, Chelation, Injections and Physical Medicine.

In Naturopathic Medicine, no two patients are the same. Each detail of a patient’s history, combined with their presenting concern, is what allows us to individualize the care a patient is provided. Instead of treating a chief complaint with the same treatment for every patient, Naturopathic Medicine looks at the entire patient before determining what the best treatment is.

The same way that no two snowflakes are alike, the treatment that works for one person may not work for another. Just because one modality didn’t work for one patient does not mean it’s ineffective. It just means that it is not the right choice for that person. One of the amazing things about Naturopathic Medicine is the vast amount of treatments that exist to address each ailment. When these different modalities are combined, a very effective and powerful treatment arises.

Naturopathic Medicine is not an all-or-nothing system. Our Naturopathic doctor believes in using the best treatment for each person, and sometimes this can be prescription medications or other practitioners. They work in working collaboratively with all healthcare providers to provide you with the best care.
