| Naturopathic Medicine blends centuries-old natural, non-toxic therapies with current advances in the study of health and healing. Licensed Naturopathic Physicians are trained at accredited four-year naturopathic medical schools to be primary care general practitioners with expertise in natural medicine. Their pre-clinical and clinical training is comparable to that of conventional medical schools, and they must pass national board exams to obtain licensure. Naturopathic Medicine focuses on whole-patient wellness - the treatment is tailored to the patient and emphasizes prevention and self-care. Naturopaths attempt to find the underlying cause of the patient's condition rather than focusing solely on symptomatic treatment. Naturopathic medicine is effective in treating most health problems, both acute and chronic. |
