What Is Naturopathic Medicine?
The Naturopathic physician draws from an eclectic compendium of therapies from many different parts of the world - all of which emphasize preventive, non-toxic and non-invasive treatments. Naturopathic physicians are the only primary health care practitioners the Surgeon General (1988 report) deems adequately trained in both preventive and therapeutic use of nutrition. A Naturopathic medical student receives over 140 classroom hours of clinical nutrition.
