Core Philosophies of Naturopathic Medicine
Dec 12, 2021
1- First, Do No Harm (Primum non nocere)
Naturopathic doctors choose the most safe and effective therapies to enhance your health and decrease harmful side effects.
2- The Healing Power of Nature (Vis medicatrix naturae)
Naturopathic doctors recognize and work to restore the inherent healing ability of the body, mind and spirit.
3- Identify and Treat the Causes (Tolle causam)
Naturopathic doctors identify, address and remove the underlying causes of disease, rather than suppressing symptoms.
4- Doctor as Teacher (Docere)
Naturopathic doctors educate, support and empower patients to become more capable of maintaining their own health.
5- Treat the Whole Person (Tolle totum)
Naturopathic doctors view an individual's healing as a whole (mind, body and spirt) and not as individual separate parts. A naturopathic assessment takes into account all facets of the individual's well-being, including the nutritional status, lifestyle, family history, physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental and social factors.
6- Prevention (Praevenic)
Naturopathic doctors emphasize the prevention of disease and focus on overall health and wellness. Health entails daily functioning at the most optimal level possible and is obtained by proper nutrition, exercise, a balanced lifestyle, positive thoughts, emotions and actions.
