Who Sees a Naturopath?

Naturopathic patient

Naturopathy helps people with all forms of health concerns — from pediatric to geriatric, from acute (recent sudden onset) to chronic (long standing) illness and from the physical to the psychological. Naturopathy is beneficial for the following types of patients:

  • People who are looking for disease prevention and health promotion strategies
  • People who have a range of symptoms that they have been unable to address on their own or with the help of other medical practitioners
  • People who have been diagnosed with an illness, often serious or chronic and are looking for supportive treatment options. Naturopathy is very effective for improving quality of life for those with serious and life threatening illnesses
  • People who are looking to combine conventional and naturopathic treatments with the aim of minimizing side effects of drugs, surgery or medical treatments.
