Naturopathic medicine is a distinct form of health care with an emphasis on prevention, treatment and optimal health guided by the use of therapeutic modalities which support the bodies innate ability towards self-healing.

Foundations of Naturopathic Medicine:

​

• Vis Medicatrix Naturae (The Healing Power of Nature)

• Docere (Doctor as Teacher)

• Tolle Causam (Identify and Treat the Causes)

• Primum Non Nocere (First Do No Harm)

• Treat the whole person

• Prevention

​

In conjunction with the Foundations of Naturopathic Medicine, a therapeutic order is incorporated to utilize the least invasive modalities first, while understanding that there is a time and a place for more invasive treatments as well.

​

1. Re-establish basis of health

2. Identify cause and remove the obstacles to cure

3. Stimulate healing processes

4. Support weakened or damaged systems/organs

5. Restore structural integrity

6. Address pathology

7. Palliative treatment
