Naturopathic Medicine is prevention based-patient focused healthcare. It is used to diagnose and treat people in efforts to promote healing at a causal level and not by solely treating external signs and symptoms. Naturopathic doctors (NDs) are trained as primary care doctors. They teach their patients to use diet, exercise, lifestyle changes and natural therapies to enhance their bodies’ innate ability heal and maintain balance. Naturopathic medicine investigates the relationship between physical, mental, and emotional wellness to create health.
