Naturopathic Modalities
Botanical medicine, also called herbal medicine or phytomedicine, refers to using a plant's seeds, berries, roots, leaves, bark, or flowers for medicinal purposes. Plants have the ability to synthesize a wide variety of chemical compounds that can be used to support several physiological functions to help promote and maintain health. Herbs can be in the form of teas, syrups, oils, liquid extracts, tinctures, and dry extracts (pills or capsules). Some herbs can interact with prescription or over-the-counter medications, so therefore, it is important to consult with a trained health care provider for proper use.
Homeopathy is a therapeutic method that uses highly diluted natural substances to stimulate the body’s innate healing ability. Homeopathic medicines are available in a variety of forms such as pellets, gels, ointments, creams, syrups, eye drops and suppositories.
Clinical Nutrition: Healthy food is our best medicine. One of the causes of chronic disease is poor nutrition. Many medical conditions can be treated more effectively with foods and nutritional supplements than they can by other means.
Hydrotherapy is the use of water to rejuvenate, preserve, and reestablish health. Hydrotherapy treatments include saunas, steam baths, foot baths, sitz baths, and the application of cold and hot water compresses. Alternating hot and cold water improves elimination, decreases inflammation, and stimulates circulation.
Intravenous (IV) nutritional therapy is a method of delivering vitamins, minerals and other vital nutrients to the body directly into the bloodstream. IV nutritional therapy is important when vitamins and minerals are depleted and/or not well absorbed by the body due to gastrointestinal disorders.
