Why Naturopathy?



Naturopathy philosophy is centered in helping the body heal itself in the least invasive, most fundamentally curative manner possible. It is a RATIONAL blend of vitalistic and mechanistic principles working with the whole person and educating the patient in the ways of health.
Present Naturopathy is based on solid criteria and supported by appropriate evidence, keeping pace with modern research and development.
The patient does the curing and the naturopathic physician works to :
- Arrest destruction and degeneration of cells and tissues
- Restore and maintain normal functions
- Diagnose and treat the cause not the symptoms
- Cause little or no side effects to the patient or the the environment
- Assist the body in its natural healing process 
- Assist the patient in establishing a healthy life-style
