   WHAT IS NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE

Naturopathic Medicine is the practise of individualized healthcare focusing on the prevention of illness and the diagnosis and treatment of disease.

Doctors of Naturopathic Medicine are specialists in evidence-based natural medicine and preventive health care. They integrate scientific knowledge with traditional, natural healing.

Licenced Naturopathic Physicians have completed scienced-based undergraduate studies at a recognized university followed by four years of Naturopathic Medical School. After graduation, ND's complete rigorous medical regulatory board examinations that are standardized across North America. In B.C., they are then licenced and regulated by the College of Naturopathic Physicians of B.C.

Naturopathic Doctors are primary healthcare professionals whom use safe, gentle, non-invasive therapies to treat both acute illness and chronic disease. ND's may employ one or more of the following treatment methods when treating any given condition:

botanical medicine
clinical nutrition
homeopathy
massage
Traditional Chinese Medicine
hydrotherapy
spinal manipulations
IV nutritional therapies
chelation
counselling
facial renewal acupuncture
