Natural Doctor

Naturopathic medicine is a distinct system of primary healthcare -- the art and science, philosophy and practice of diagnosis, prevention and treatment of illness with personalized natural therapies. Naturopathic Doctors are general practitioners who specialize in natural medicine. At a time when modern medicine is suffering from an epidemic of technological over-load, over-specialization and over-use of drug therapy, naturopathic physicians are being increasingly called upon to provide natural health care. Six guiding principles form the basic philosophy of naturopathic medicine. Based on the wisdom of the ages, they are as fresh and applicable today as when they were first conceived. Their application empowers both doctor and patient to view the symptoms of dis-ease as valuable feedback, informing the body/mind of the need for change. By viewing disease as a "process with a purpose" we can learn how to become active participants in our recovery process.
