Naturopathic medicine

  • Naturopathic medicine incorporates a set of principles that are fundamentally different from the conventional medical model, here’s is the abbreviated version:
    • Vis Medicatrix Naturae, or belief in the wisdom and healing power of nature.
    • Tolle Causum, work to identify and treat the cause of disease, as opposed to  solely addressing symptoms.
    • Primum Non Nocere, first, do no harm.
    • Docere, doctor as teacher.
    • Tolle Totum, treat the whole person.
    • Praevenire, prevention is the best “cure”.
  • Naturopathic medicine also incorporates a large group of tools or “modalities” that Naturopathic Physicians use to treat illness on all levels; body, mind and spirit.  Some of these tools include (this is not an exhaustive list):
    • Exercise and diet counseling
    • Nutritional support
    • Homeopathy
    • Botanical medicine
    • Physical medicine (from Naturopathic manipulations to hydrotherapy to therapeutic ultrasound)
    • Bodywork and Massage
    • Flower Essences
    • Biotherapeutic Drainage (UNDAs, Gemmos, Oligo-elements, etc…)
    • Minor surgery
    • IV therapy
    • Injection therapy (PRP, prolotherapy, neuroprolotherapy, ozone injections, etc…)
  • Finally, Naturopathic medicine constitutes a method of identifying diseases through clinical investigations, patient history, physical exams, laboratory diagnosis, and imaging and a desire to offer the full spectrum of healthcare choices to patients emphasizing modern scientific research and multiple traditional healing practices.
