What is naturopathy?<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”small” position=”left”][vc_column_text]Naturopathic doctors integrate standard medical diagnostics with a broad range of natural therapies. Naturopathic medicine plays an important role in integrative health care. It supports the body\u2019s own healthy ability using treatments and prevention strategies that include acupuncture, botanical medicine, physical medicine, clinical nutrition, homeopathic medicine and lifestyle counseling.<\/p>\n

-Taken from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” align=”align_center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

What is the difference between naturopathy and homeopathy?<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”small” position=”left”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The main difference between them is the type of medicines used. Homeopathy uses solely homeopathic remedies (some of the examples are chamomile, St.John\u2019s wort) while naturopathy uses a variety of medicines, including homeopathy, but also botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, physical medicine and lifestyle counseling.<\/p>\n
