Naturopathic medicine is a system of healthcare that emphasizes the body’s ability to heal itself through natural and non-invasive therapies. Naturopathic doctors (NDs) blend traditional healing practices with modern medical science to address the root causes of illness and promote overall well-being.
Naturopathic medicine is guided by the following principles:
- The Healing Power of Nature
- Naturopathic medicine recognizes the body’s inherent ability to heal itself. The goal is to support and enhance this natural healing process through various therapies.
- Identify and Treat the Root Cause
- Naturopathic practitioners use therapies that are minimally invasive and avoid the use of treatments that may cause harm or suppress the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
- First, Do No Harm
