THE HEALING POWER OF NATURE

Naturopaths believe there is an inherent capacity within every living body to repair and heal itself. Infective agents, injury, environmental toxins, stress and lifestyle choices may at times interfere with this innate ability. Naturopaths seek to remove obstacles to the repair / healing mechanism, and to stimulate, strengthen and augment its activity. The body knows what to do, but at times it may need to be reminded and enabled.

INDIVIDUALIZED TREATMENT

Treatment is tailored to each patient after assessing the individual's physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental, social, and other factors; and how such factors may be impacting upon the patient and his or her presenting conditions at that time.

INTERACTION OF MIND, BODY, AND SPIRIT

Naturopathic medicine believes the mind, body, and spirit are closely related, and that illness or dysfunction in one of these aspects of self will impact upon the health of the other two.
