How are you feeling lately?

Do you feel that there is something wrong but the medical doctors say that all tests are normal and you are fine?

Are you currently receiving medical treatment, the side effects of which concern you, and you would like to know what alternatives or complements there are?

Are you in good health now and would like advice on how to keep it that way?

There is a distinct system of primary health care that responds to these situations. It is called Naturopathic Medicine.

Simply put, naturopathic medicine is a natural way to relieve suffering. Natural means "from nature". Modern practice of naturopathic medicine avoids the use of prescription drugs or surgery, relying instead on substances drawn from plants, food supplements and hands-on therapies.

Naturopathic medicine recognizes the human body's ability to heal itself and uses natural methods and substances to stimulate that. It includes diagnosis and individualized treatment programmes as well as prevention.

The approach:
-seeks to identify and treat the cause of illness rather than just the symptoms
-believes that physicians should teach their patients
-recognizes that many factors may have to be addressed in one person's treatment - physical, mental, emotional, environmental and social
-emphasizes prevention
