Naturopathy, or naturopathic medicine, is a system of medicine based on the healing power of nature. Naturopathy is a holistic system, having been time-tested through the ages, treats the person as a whole, striving to find the cause of disease by understanding the patient in totality – mind, body, emotions and spirit.
Naturopaths are traditional doctors as teachers (Docere), empowering patients to take a very active role in the healing process, passing the responsibility of health to the rightful owners. Tools used towards these therapeutic goals are nutritional medicine, herbal medicine, iris analysis and a host of other natural resources.
There are two areas of focus in naturopathy: one is supporting the body's own healing abilities, and the other is empowering individuals to make lifestyle changes necessary for the best possible health. While naturopaths treat both acute illness and chronic conditions, their emphasis is on prevention of disease.

As part of any ongoing treatment regime, I also offer my patients the cost-effective option of Health Coaching with follow-ups via phone and e-mail, rather than direct visits to to my clinic.
