Naturopathic medicine is based on the innate power of the body to heal itself. The role of the naturopathic physician (ND) is to teach how diet, exercise, lifestyle and natural therapies can enhance the natural ability to heal. Naturopathic physicians take all aspects of health into account and work to find the root cause of illness. Naturopathic recommendations are highly individualized and blend the best of modern techniques and traditional healing methods. Herbal medicine, dietary supplements, homeopathy, diet counseling, exercise plans, physical medicine, and stress reduction are a few of the techniques used in naturopathic medicine.
