Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic Medicine is a system of primary health care that address the root cause of health conditions or a group of symptoms. In order to achieve a high level of wellness, we must view the body as a whole and, therefore, treat the whole body.
The goal of Naturopathic Medicine is not to suppress the body’s natural response by covering up symptoms. Instead, its goal is to treat the root imbalance in the body that causes symptoms or disease states. Symptoms are the “red flag” that there is a dis-ease state in the body. If a body's root imbalance is found and treated, symptoms and disease states can be eliminated rather than simply hidden.
Let us use the analogy of a flower bed to illustrate how Naturopathic Medicine treats the root cause of disease. Imagine there is a flower bed that lacks water, light, and nutrients, and is infested with bugs and toxins. There are still flowers growing in this flower bed, but also plenty of weeds. The weeds to the flowerbed are like symptoms to people. If the weeds are simply pulled out, they will inevitably grow again and again. However, if you change and treat the soil, the weeds no longer have an environment to grow. Naturopathic treatments are tailored to make the unique environmental changes required in an individual body so that "weeds" are no longer able to grow in that body.
Our treatment methods follow the laws of the body's ability to heal itself: with the exception of emergency health care situations, all organisms in nature are self-regulating and have the ability to self-heal. By simply removing stressors to the body we can stimulate the body's innate wisdom to heal.
We can get the most out of the law of self-healing when we are given the right tools, and Naturopathic Medicine can provide these tools. Naturopathic Medicine assesses hereditary influence, past trauma, skeletal structure, nutrition, and the ability of the body to detoxify.
Naturopathic Medicine can help you obtain prime mental, physical, and spiritual states using a both modern-day scientific research and centuries of empirical clinical experience.
