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
