Vis Medicatrix Naturae

The Healing Power of Nature. Naturopathic Doctors recognize the body’s inherent ability to heal itself. Naturopathic physicians identify and remove obstacles to recovery to facilitate this healing ability in patients.

Praevenire

Prevention is the Best Medicine. Naturopathic Doctors are trained as experts in understanding how to maintain and regain health. They strive to help people prevent disease and find optimal health.

Tolle Causam

Identify and Treat the Cause. The Naturopathic Doctor seeks to identify and remove the underlying causes of illness, rather than eliminate or merely suppress symptoms.

Primum Non Nocere

First, Do No Harm. The Naturopathic Doctor uses methods which minimize the risk of harmful side effects, avoids the harmful suppression of symptoms and uses the least force necessary to stimulate healing.

Docere

Doctor as Teacher. Naturopathic physicians educate the patient and encourage self-responsibility for health. They also acknowledge the therapeutic value inherent in the doctor-patient relationship.

Tolle Totum

Treat the Whole Person. Naturopathic Doctors recognize the harmonious functioning of all aspects of the individual – body, mind and spirit – as being essential to health.
