Naturopathic medicine is a unique system of healthcare that takes an integrative approach to health and well-being. It is a system that combines modern medicine with traditional therapies to address the root causes of disease, in order to treat people with acute and chronic conditions.

Naturopathic medicine focuses on disease prevention and health optimization. It takes a wellness centred approach to health rather than a disease centred approach, and puts the person at the forefront. Utilizing the best available research, as well as clinical experience, naturopathic medicine utilizes  a variety of modalities to help people achieve their health goals. These may include clinical nutrition, physical medicine, botanical medicine, Traditional Asian Medicine, psychology, and lifestyle counselling.

Naturopathic Doctors are naturally trained, and medically focused. They are primary health care providers, with much of the same capabilities as a conventional Medical Doctor. A three- or four- year undergraduate degree must be completed prior to applying to the four-year Doctor of Naturopathy program. Naturopathic Doctors graduate from accredited schools, and are regulated and licensed based on their jurisdiction.

Naturopathic medicine embraces the healing power of nature and further, the power of the body to heal itself when provided the right conditions.
