A combination of nutritional and herbal medicine, dietary and lifestyle techniques or suggestions are generally used in treatment. A naturopath aims to identify and treat the root cause of a problem, rather than apply a ‘band-aid’ treatment to the affected area, be it emotional or physical. For this reason, sometimes treatment may take longer, but helps to prevent reoccurrence of the problem in the future. Every client is seen as an individual, and every treatment plan is customized especially for you. Naturopathy may be useful for you if you suffer from any of the following: fatigue, weight problems, skin problems, stress/anxiety, depression, PMS, menopause, thyroid problems, and many other issues.
