What is Naturopathic
Medicine?
Naturopathic medicine is a distinct and regulated healthcare profession in British Columbia. It integrates modern scientific knowledge with traditional natural therapies, offering a holistic approach to treating patients. Naturopathic Doctors (NDs) undergo rigorous training, including a 4-year full-time program after completing a degree with pre-medical courses. Instead of focusing solely on symptoms, NDs are trained to look at the root causes of your health concerns. They take into account all aspects of your physical, mental, and emotional well-being to develop personalized treatment plans that support your overall health and long-term wellness.
