How Does Naturopathy Compare To Conventional Medicine?

Naturopathy

Functional Medicine is the modern equivalent in many ways to Naturopathy. Many Naturopaths practice as functional medicine practitioners. Functional Medicine is a term which became popular in America for those combining modern science with Naturopathic principles. The UK based Naturopath tends to have a broader perspective than a pure Functional Medicine practitioner in that they are likely to also take into account the emotional health and the posture of the person.
