Why Work with a Naturopathic Doctor?

Could your health benefit from an alternative approach?

Whether you’re looking to heal your body, prevent certain diseases or simply take a proactive approach to your overall health using a more natural approach, a Naturopathic Doctor may be right for you! 

In this article, we will take a closer look at how a Naturopath can benefit you and the reasons you may want to consider working with one.

Dedicated Member of Your Health Team

Your Naturopathic Doctor is a dedicated member of your health team.

They don’t work for you, they work with you, making your health and wellness a top priority every step of the way. Most begin their journey with an in-depth intake appointment, where your medical history, health goals and lifestyle are discussed in full.

Once your Naturopath has a better idea of who you are and what you’re looking to achieve, they will be able to better guide and help you along the way in your health journey. Whether it be in-depth testing, making certain lifestyle changes or incorporating quality vitamins and supplements into your everyday routine.

In-Depth Testing

Many Naturopaths will work with you to determine where your health could be improved and exactly what can be done to help make improvements. Once of the best places to begin, is with a series of testing.

These tests can vary, based on the offerings of your Naturopath and your unique health journey. If there are any tests that you would like your Naturopath to submit a requisition for, you can address this with them at an appointment, where you will be given the opportunity to discuss what the test looks for and how it may be able to help you.

Your Naturopath can also walk you through your results, so that you understand everything clearly, including the next steps!

Looking Beyond the Symptoms

With a Naturopathic Doctor, they will look far beyond any symptoms that you may be experiencing. In fact, most Naturopaths prefer to take a whole-body approach when it comes to helping a patient manage and improve their quality of health.

Naturopaths aren’t looking to treat the symptoms. Their goal is to identify and treat the root cause of the problem, which is leading to the symptoms.

How they help you to treat the root cause is completely dependant on your unique health and wellness. They may recommend a lifestyle change, such as committing to a balanced diet, drinking more water or engaging in regular exercise, incorporating vitamins and supplements into your daily routine, or investing in your mental health.

Identify Long-Term Health Goals

Your Naturopath will stand by your side for the long-term. This begins with establishing a range of health goals, which can take weeks, months or sometimes even years to achieve. It all begins with setting a goal and creating a strategy that sets you up for success.

Once your health goals have been established and a plan has been set in place, your Naturopath will provide you with guidance and support every step of the way, helping you to adjust the strategy as needed, if needed!

Taking a Natural Approach

Many consult with a Naturopathic Doctor when a traditional approach isn’t quite working the way that they would like. Or simply because they would like to explore the other options available, especially if a natural approach to managing and improving their health is a possibility.

As mentioned above, your Naturopath may suggest a number of lifestyle changes, vitamins, supplements, or even acupuncture to help improve your physical, mental and emotional health.
