The Naturopathic Philosophy & Its Principles
|
|
Naturopathic physicians work with the Healing Power of Nature to restore and support the inherent recuperative systems in the body when they have broken down. Using natural medicines and techniques that are in harmony with natural processes, health is restored.
First, do not harm. Non-invasive treatments are preferred to minimize the risks of harmful side-effects.
Find the cause. Every illness has an underlying cause often in aspects of the lifestyle, diet or habits of the individual. A Naturopathic Physician is trained to find and treat the underlying cause of a "dis-ease."
Health or disease comes from a complex interaction of physical, emotional, dietary, genetic, environmental, lifestyle and other factors. Naturopathic Physicians treat the whole person taking these factors into account.
Preventive Medicine. The Naturo-pathic approach of health care can prevent minor illnesses from developing into more serious or chronic degenerative problems. Patients are taught the principles by which to live a healthy life.
