Naturopathic medicine uses an integrative approach to healthcare to help patients achieve physical, mental and emotional wellbeing through disease prevention and health promotion.

Naturopathic medicine is a distinct primary health care system which combines modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine. It uses a wide variety of therapies to treat, support and uncover the “root cause” of patient health concerns.

Think of it as your gateway to optimal health. From diet and exercise, to understanding your body’s unique chemistry, naturopathic medicine allows you to boost your immune system, prevent and treat chronic disease and increase your overall energy level.

Naturopathic treatment draws from a number of modalities and is tailored to the individual. Depending on the doctor’s approach and the needs of the individual patient, treatments may include: acupuncture, botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, homeopathic medicine, lifestyle counselling, and physical treatments such as massage, hydrotherapy and naturopathic manipulation.

Homeopathy is a system of medicine based on the principle that illness can be cured by stimulating the body’s ability to heal itself physically, emotionally and mentally with specially selected substances carefully selected for their energy giving qualities. It is based on the principle “like cures like” which means the same substance that can cause a particular set of symptoms in a well person can cure the same in an ill person. Homeopathy treats the whole person collectively and regards symptoms as expressions of distress in attempt to make the necessary changes toward healing. Suppressing these symptoms will only prevent the body’s fight to cure itself. Through homeopathy, not only are the symptoms alleviated, but the body’s own “vital force” is strengthened to re-establish balance and harmony, which is the state of health. Treatments include lifestyle and nutritional counseling, cell salt deficiency, botanical medicine and detoxification.
