What is Naturopathy?
A naturopath (Naturopathic Doctor, ND) is a healthcare professional who uses evidence-informed natural therapies to support the body’s ability to heal and restore balance. Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, naturopathic care aims to identify and address the root causes of illness through a holistic, person-centred approach.
Naturopaths combine modern scientific knowledge with traditional healing practices to create individualized treatment plans. These may include:
- Nutritional counselling
- Herbal medicine
- Lifestyle support (stress management, sleep, movement)
- Acupuncture
- Homeopathy
- Physical therapies such as massage
Naturopathic care emphasizes prevention, education, and long-term wellness — supporting patients in building sustainable health foundations rather than short-term symptom relief alone.
