Naturopathic medicine is a system of medicine that focuses on prevention of illness and the use of non-toxic, natural therapies.
Naturopathic medicine is based on several principles:
1.Nature has healing powers(vis medicatrix naturae)
2.Identify and treat the cause(tolle causam).
3.Treat the whole person.
4.The physician is a teacher.
5.Prevention is the best cure.
6.Establish health and wellness.
“Nature is doing he best each moment to make us well. She exists for no other end. Do not resist. With the least inclination to be well, we should not be sick” (Henry David Thoreau)
