Naturopathic Visit at Nature Cures Clinic

Naturopathic medicine is a unique system of medicine. It’s focus is on treating the underlying causes of symptoms, and it uses a number of different therapies. All licensed naturopathic doctors have attended a 4-year medical school. The therapies that might be delivered by a naturopathic include nutrition counseling, massage and bodywork, vitamin injection therapy, naturopathic physical manipulation, counseling, physiotherapy and many others. While all of these therapies can be important, the goal of all naturopathic therapies is to correct the various imbalances that lead to the experience of symptoms.

At Nature Cures Clinic, the first office visit typically includes an extensive history and often a focused physical exam.  It is also common to briefly review any lab work that has been done in the past and order new labs as needed.  Depending upon the complexity of the case, the first visit might conclude with a treatment plan and follow-up instructions, or it might be the first of a series of visits necessary for gathering all the relevant information that allows for a comprehensive treatment program.
