Problem-focused visits are to discuss a current diagnosis or health concern. Naturopathic Medicine can be used to treat a wide variety of ailments, including but not limited to: anxiety, depression, insomnia, chronic fatigue, pain, digestive issues, skin conditions, thyroid conditions, diabetes, hypertension, stress management or hormonal imbalance. These appointments often include some combination of laboratory testing, diagnostic techniques, supplement recommendations, therapeutic diets, detoxification/purification programs, and sleep/stress-management techniques.
Naturopathic Medicine is an integrative, evidence based medicine that focuses on identifying and addressing root cause correlations of imbalance, rather than just treating symptoms. The patient and practitioner work together to discover health history, nutrition, diet, exercise, stress, sleep, environmental, mind/body and genetic contributors to underlying health concerns.
