FAQS
Naturopathic medicine is a system of healthcare that emphasizes natural, least invasive, and least toxic therapies to treat illness, and promotes wellness by treating the whole person. It is based on a set of six principles that guide naturopathic practitioners in their approach to patient care. And, above all, it honors the body’s innate wisdom to heal, giving patients tools for lifelong wellness. These principles are:
First, Do No Harm (Primum Non Nocere): Naturopathic physicians prioritize using the least invasive and least harmful interventions necessary to promote healing. They carefully evaluate the potential risks and benefits of any treatment, and they aim to minimize any potential side effects or harm to the patient. NDs will refer when the patient’s presentation is outside their scope or level of skill.
Identify and Treat the Causes (Tolle Causam): Naturopathic doctors recognize that there is a time and place for symptom suppression, however we seek to identify a patients underlying cause of illness, and remove obstacles to cure. This involves considering factors such as lifestyle, diet, environment, and emotional well-being.
Treat the Whole Person: Naturopathic medicine considers the individual as a whole, acknowledging that physical health is intricately linked with mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Practitioners take into account an individual’s physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental, and social factors when crafting treatment plans, all in the pursuit of achieving optimal health.
The Healing Power of Nature (Vis Medicatrix Naturae): This principle acknowledges the body’s inherent wisdom to heal itself. The role of the naturopathic physician is to support and facilitate this process by identifying and removing obstacles to recovery and fostering a healthy internal and external environment.
Doctor as Teacher (Docere): Naturopathic doctors see themselves as educators. We understand that through education and a trust-based relationship, patients will better understand the steps needed to achieve health. Therefore, our aim is to empower patients with the knowledge and tools so that they can take responsibility for their own health. This involves providing information about healthy living, nutrition, exercise, and other lifestyle choices.
Prevention: Naturopathic medicine affirms that it is better to prevent illness and suffering whenever possible. This involves combing all six principles in order to identify potential areas of imbalance and teach patients how to get and stay well.
These principles collectively guide naturopathic physicians in providing holistic and patient-centered care. We aim to promote overall well-being and vitality of an individual to enhance their quality of life.
