NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE
​

"The best doctor gives the least medicine"

​~Benjamin Franklin
​"The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest her or his patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease."

​~Thomas Edison

​Dr. Cimoch knows that true wellness can be attained when there is balance amongst physical, spiritual, mental, and emotional aspects of health- let Naturopathic Medicine support you in bringing balance to these areas of your life!


Naturopathic Medicine is a unique type of holistic medicine that emphasizes the inherent ability of the body to self-heal and maintain health. Naturopathic physicians support your wellness by removing obstacles to attaining health, and providing you with personalized and non-invasive therapeutic modalities that aim to treat the cause of your condition. We are trained in traditional and modern healing therapies that are safe and have been proven effective by scientific research.


Naturopathic Physicians are guided by strong foundational roots
in the 6 principles of healing:

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.



2. Identify and Treat the Cause
The naturopathic physician seeks to identify and remove the underlying root causes of illness rather than to merely eliminate or suppress symptoms.

4. Treat the Whole Person
Each one of us has a unique physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental, social, sexual and spiritual makeup. The naturopathic physician knows that all these factors affect our health. That’s why he or she includes them in a carefully tailored and individualized treatment strategy.

3. The Healing Power of Nature
There is an inherent self-healing process in our bodies that is ordered and intelligent. By removing barriers to this self-healing- such as unhealthy dietary and lifestyle choices- naturopaths can facilitate in the healing process we all possess.

5. Doctor as Teacher
Naturopaths are not only physicians, but also educators. Naturopaths teach you how to live healthy lifestyles- how to eat, exercise, enjoy life to the fullest, and also encourage self-responsibility for health.

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.
