Naturopathic Philosophy
|
Naturopathy blends centuries-old natural, not-toxic therapies with current advances in medicine, covering all aspects of health from prenatal to geriatric care.
Naturopathic Medicine:
- Concentrates on whole person wellness - the treatment is tailored to the patient and emphasizes prevention and self care.
- Attempts to find the underlying cause of the patient's condition rather than focusing solely on the symptomatic treatment.
- Is defined primarily by its fundamental principles:
| |
- First, do no harm
- Work with the Healing Power of Nature
- Identify the cause
- Treat the whole person
- Physician as teacher
- Practice Prevention
