1. First Do No Harm
To ensure patient’s safety, naturopaths utilize methods and substances which minimize potential harmful side effects. Also, when possible, naturopaths do not suppress symptoms, since symptoms are the body’s efforts to self-heal. For instance, in the case of a fever, this is one of the ways in which the immune system destroys whatever microbe has infected the body. Therefore, a naturopath’s job is to allow a fever to take its course in a healthy way, and not interfere with the body’s self-healing abilities.

6. Prevention Naturopathic physicians emphasize the prevention of disease by assessing risk factors, along with heredity and susceptibility to disease. Naturopaths aim to make appropriate interventions earlier on in life to prevent illness in your loved ones from young to old. Simply put, by living a healthy life now, you and your family are less likely to need treatment for future illness. |
