Principles of Naturopathic Medicine

 First, to do no harm.

To cooperate with the healing powers of nature.

To address the fundamental causes of disease.

To heal the whole person through individualized treatment.

Patients are empowered and motivated to get better when they gain extra knowledge about their bodies and current health conditions.
