Naturopathic Therapies
Licensed Naturopathic Doctors are primary care practitioners who use a combination of traditional medicine and modern research to prevent, diagnose, and treat illness naturally for the entire family. Naturopathic Doctors assess the whole person, taking into consideration physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects. Gentle, non-invasive techniques are used in order to stimulate the body’s self-healing capacity. I will be using one, or a combination of the following naturopathic therapies, for your treatment plan.
Botanical Medicine is the use of constituents from whole plants (flowers, roots, and/or leaves) in the form of liquid tinctures, herbal teas, tablets, salves, essential oils, and baths and is based on both traditional practices and modern scientific research. Naturopathic Doctors are trained in the appropriate use of medicinal plants as well as drug-herb interactions. Botanical medicine is used to support and promote the healing processes which naturally exist within the body.
Homeopathy is a form of medicine which relies on minute amounts of substances to facilitate the body's natural healing capacity. Homeopathic remedies are prescribed based on the understanding that ‘like cures like’ - a principle which has been observed clinically for over 200 years. The selection of a remedy is based on the client’s entire symptom picture. The focus of homeopathy is to restore health to the entire body.
Traditional Chinese Medicine includes acupuncture, herbal formulas and dietary changes to eliminate disease and balance body functions. TCM involves an ancient system of diagnosis based on specific patterns and combinations of symptoms that have been observed over thousands of years. Acupuncture refers to the insertion of sterilized needles at specific points which modify the flow of energy through the body and stimulate organ function. In some cases, moxa (a compressed herb in the form of a stick) is burned over an acupuncture point to help relieve symptoms. Herbal formulas may be given in the form of pills, tinctures or strong teas to be taken internally or used externally as a wash. Dietary advice is based upon traditional Chinese medical theory.
Clinical Nutrition is the foundation of optimal health. Many conditions may be prevented or treated by modifications in diet alone, while others may require the prescription of specific nutrients. Nutritional analysis, dietary plans, cleansing / detoxification programs, and supplementation are tools used by a Naturopathic Doctor to address a variety of health concerns.
Hydrotherapy refers to the use of water applications at varying temperatures. Hydrotherapy is a noninvasive, economical and effective therapeutic approach that acts to stimulate the immune system, facilitate detoxification, and promote lymph drainage and circulation.
Lifestyle Counseling and Coaching is used to teach a client how to incorporate balance between work, nutrition, exercise, and activities of daily living. While the rewards are substantial, making changes in one’s lifestyle can be a challenge. It is important that the client be supported throughout this treatment process. Naturopathic care is a collaborative process between the client and doctor.
Massage and Body Adjustment is the use of hands-on therapies to adjust the joints and soft tissues of the body primarily to heal injury manage pain and relieve stress. These physical therapies can also have profound effects on restoring optimal nerve and organ function as well as stimulating circulation and detoxification.
Principles of Naturopathic Medicine
The following guiding principles are fundamental to every treatment plan.
First, do no harm
Promote optimal health with the least risk for each patient.
The healing power of nature
The healing power of nature must be respected to promote healing.
Treat the cause
Treat the fundamental cause of disease. Identify and remove the causes while avoiding the suppression of symptoms.
Doctor as teacher
The role of doctor as teacher and role model for patient education, for the inspiration of rational hope, and to encourage self-responsibility.
Treat the whole person
Address the unique physical, emotional, and mental factors which influence each person's well-being.
Prevention
Promote holistic health, to prevent future illness. Prevention involves individual, community, and global health promotion.
