Naturopathy

Naturopathic medicine is based on the belief that the human body has an innate healing ability. Tattwa Naturopaths teach our clients to use diet, exercise, lifestyle changes and cutting edge natural therapies to enhance the body’s ability to ward off and combat disease. Naturopathy views the body as a complex, interrelated system (a whole person), not as an individual symptom. Tattwa Naturopaths craft comprehensive treatment plans that supplement a patient’s traditional allopathic treatment while blending natural medical approaches to not only treat disease, but to also restore health.

A naturopathic consultation at Tattwa typically begins with a patient interview focusing on lifestyle, medical history, stress assessments, as well as physical examinations. The Naturopath works with herbs, diet, enriched waters, cleanses, and gentle tissue manipulations in their treatments to harness and enhance the body’s own natural healing powers. Tattwa Naturopaths base their practice on historically rooted principles including:

  • Self-Healing. Our bodies have such a powerful, innate instinct for self-healing. By finding and removing the barriers to this self-healing naturopathic physicians attempt to nurture this process.
  • Treatment of Causes. Naturopaths realize that symptoms will only return unless the root illness is addressed. Rather than temporarily alleviate or cover up symptoms, Naturopaths seek to find and treat the source of a patient’s illness.
  • Individualized Low Impact Treatment Options. Tattwa treatment plans are customized to fit each patient’s individual diagnosis. Further, by using low-impact procedures and natural compounds, such as dietary supplements, herbal extracts and homeopathy, Tattwa’s Naturopaths attempt to limit treatments to few or no side effects.
  • Education. Tattwa believes that one of the most important aspects of treatment is education. By educating our clients on how to eat, relax, energize and nurture themselves physically, spiritually and emotionally we help them take control of their own wellbeing. They also encourage self-responsibility and work closely with each patient.
  • Holistic Approach. The body is a complete interconnected organism and the Naturopath recognizes this interconnectivity in providing treatment. This often involves looking outside the immediate symptoms to address imbalances in the body as a whole.
