Naturopathic Medicine is an all-encompassing form of diagnostics and therapeutics. The main goals of Naturopathic Medicine are to treat the whole person and determine the cause of whatever issues are at hand. Most Medical Doctors are only able to spend a couple of minutes with each patient, but Naturopathic Doctors spend between 30 minutes to an hour each visit. This enable Naturopathic Doctors to take an in-depth health history (Past medical history, hospitalizations, allergies, sensitivities, family history, medications, supplements, etc..., perform a thorough physical exam, request detailed blood work (and explain it), and to really get to know patients. Naturopathic Medicine is designed to determine what the actual cause of the condition is. If someone goes to a Medical Doctor with headaches, there is a good chance they will be given a medication for headaches, but the cause will not be explored unless dangerous red flags are present. If they were to go a Naturopathic Doctor with headaches, the Naturopath will ask about when it started, triggers, relieving factors, location, etc... to determine what is causing the headache. Common causes for headaches are: tension from stress, food sensitivities, nutrient deficiencies, trigger points, caffeine intake or withdrawal, improper sleeping position, etc... so we strive to determine what the cause is and work with you to eliminate or reduce these contributing factors.
