Naturopathy

Naturopathic medicine is a holistic and comprehensive approach to improving health and treating illness. Focusing on prevention, and using natural substances and treatments, naturopathic doctors (ND's) support and stimulate the body’s ability to heal itself. Natural medicine views each individual as an integral whole. This innovative field of medicine represents an evolution in health care because it encourages the patient to participate in the healing process.

Our Naturopathic Doctors (also called naturopaths, naturopathic physicians or ND’s), use the most non-toxic, least invasive, natural medicine to facilitate healing. We believe in:

• Harnessing the natural healing power of your body.
• Identifying and treating the root cause of your health problem, rather than just mask your symptoms. This usually provides a more permanent cure, rather than temporary alleviation of symptoms.
• Considering all of the mental, emotional or physical factors that may be affecting your health.
• Treating you as a whole, unique individual, not just a collection of symptoms or as a disease.
• Teaching you about the cause of your illness to empower you to take control over your own health.

At Elite Ortho Care, patient and doctor will together to make the changes that lead to true and lasting wellness.
