Naturopathic Medicine combines the best of modern conventional medicine, with natural and complementary treatment modalities, putting emphasis on prevention as well as finding and treating the cause of a symptom, rather than covering it up. The main differences between conventional (allopathic) medical doctors and naturopathic medical doctors lie in the philosophies and paradigm of thought. The 6 main philosophies and therefore oaths taken by Naturopathic Physicians are:
1) First, do no harm.
2) Prevention is the key to health quality.
3) Treat each patient as a unique individual.
4) Consider the whole patient, body, mind, and spirit.
5) Nature has the ability to heal and the body can heal itself.
6) Doctor as teacher. (Dr. Pilcher’s favorite one!)
