Naturopathic medicine is primary health care medicine, which blends modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine.

Living things have an innate ability to heal themselves; therefore, the naturopathic philosophy is to stimulate the natural healing power of the body and treat the underlying cause of disease.

Treating both acute and chronic conditions, naturopathic treatments are chosen based on the individual patient – their physiological, structural, psychological, social, spiritual, environmental and lifestyle factors. The goal of Naturopathic medicine is to develop wellness for each patient, and to teach the principles of ideal health.
