Our clinic provides exactly that, offering holistic, science-backed treatment plans tailored uniquely to each individual.
This in-depth guide explores what naturopathic medicine is, why it is trusted by so many patients, and how Coal Harbour Naturopathic & Aesthetic Clinic blends modern diagnostics with natural therapies to support health, balance, and beauty from the inside out.
What Is Naturopathic Medicine?
Naturopathic medicine is a licensed healthcare profession in British Columbia, grounded in medical sciences while integrating natural therapies and whole-person care. Naturopathic Doctors (NDs) complete extensive training in anatomy, physiology, pathology, diagnostics, and clinical medicine.
What distinguishes naturopathic care is its focus on identifying and treating the root causes of illness. Instead of suppressing symptoms, naturopathic medicine aims to understand why a condition is occurring—whether it’s hormonal imbalance, nutrient deficiency, chronic inflammation, digestive dysfunction, stress, or environmental factors.
The Six Principles of Naturopathic Medicine
- First, do no harm
- The healing power of nature
- Identify and treat the root cause
- Doctor as teacher
- Treat the whole person
Prevention is the best medicine
These principles guide every treatment plan at Coal Harbour Naturopathic & Aesthetic Clinic.
