Naturopathic Medicine is a comprehensive and holistic approach to improving health, and treating illness in patients of all ages. Naturopathic treatments can be used effectively on their own or complement conventional medical treatments. A Naturopathic Doctor blends modern clinical sciences with traditional healing practices.

The Principals of Naturopathic Medicine are;

First do no harm - a ND uses natural substances and gentle practices with few side effects. We are also educated in the fields of pharmacology to minimize the potential interactions between conventional and alternative medicines.

To Cooperate with the Healing Powers of Nature
We cannot have healthy people on a sick planet, so we must take care of our environment and use the gifts of the earth in a respectful manner.

To Address the Fundamental cause of Disease
Rather than focussing on symptom reduction we aim to discover and treat the root cause of the presenting ailment.

To Heal the Whole Person through Individualized Treatment
We do not treat body parts in isolation of the whole person, we take into account the physical, psychological and spiritual health of each patient, and treat each with a unique combination of our modalities.

To teach the principals of healthy living and preventative medicine
A N.D. emphasizes patient education with the intention of empowering individuals towards self responsibility and control over their own health care decisions.

We are also eager to share our knowledge and expertise, whether it be in a clinical setting where we educate our patients about treatment and prevention, or to small groups within our communities, or at professional conferences.
