Naturopathic medicine is a distinct system of health care that combines centuries-old natural, non-toxic therapies with current advances in modern health care. The medicine is both an art and a science, focusing on whole-person wellness.

​Naturopathic medicine attempts to find the underlying cause of a person’s condition, rather than focusing solely on symptomatic treatment. Naturopathic care is tailored to the individual and emphasizes prevention and self-care.

​The therapies available include dietary and lifestyle counseling, botanical or herbal medicine, homeopathic medicine, vitamin and nutrient supplementation and hydrotherapy. Naturopathic doctors work with all other branches of medical science, referring to medical doctors, specialists, and other practitioners when appropriate.
