Naturopathic Medicine in Hamilton
The discipline of Naturopathic Medicine is regulated in the province of Ontario. It is a primary-contact discipline with no medical referral necessary for an appointment. Naturopathic Medicine is a system that uses natural remedies to assist the body in healing itself. The goal of Naturopathic Medicine is to treat the person as a whole – body, mind, and spirit. It aims to identify the root cause of an illness and heal from within rather than treat only the symptoms in isolation.
At Durand Health, our Naturopathic Doctors can assess and diagnose many medical conditions and guide our patients through a complete care plan. Treatments may include one or a combination of evidence-based and effective treatments. Rest assured that you will be educated on the goals of your treatment plan and how the methods work.
Key Principles of Naturopathic Medicine
-
Identify and Treat the Root Cause: Instead of just alleviating symptoms, naturopathic practitioners aim to identify and address the underlying causes of illness. This often involves considering lifestyle, diet, emotional well-being, and environmental influences.
-
First, Do No Harm: Naturopathic medicine prioritizes using treatments with the least potential for harmful side effects and avoids interventions that could hinder the body’s natural healing processes.
-
Treat the Whole Person: Naturopathic doctors take a holistic approach, considering not only physical symptoms but also mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of a person’s health.
-
Prevention: Naturopathic medicine emphasizes preventive care and educates patients about healthy lifestyle choices that can help them maintain well-being and prevent illness.
-
Doctor as Teacher: Naturopathic practitioners see themselves as educators, providing patients with the knowledge and tools they need to take control of their health.
-
Individualized Treatment: Treatment plans are tailored to each patient’s unique circumstances, considering their medical history, genetics, lifestyle, and preferences.
