NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE
Naturopathic medicine is a holistic approach to healthcare that blends traditional healing methods with modern scientific principles, promoting the body’s inherent ability to heal itself. Naturopathic doctors (NDs) emphasize personalized treatment plans that address the root cause of illnesses rather than merely alleviating symptoms. Treatments may include herbal medicine, supplements, dietary & lifestyle advice and homeopathic remedies, but can also include pharmaceuticals or surgical interventions. In Oregon, NDs can function as primary care physicians.
