Naturopaths are practitioners who have studied naturopathy and its therapeutics through schools, seminars, and online courses and hold certificates from various institutions that provide these programs. Naturopathic doctors (N.D.s) are nationally and state licensed primary care doctors who have gone through clinical trainings as well as course works to obtain N.D. degrees from accredited medical schools.

A homeopath/homeopathic doctor specializes in treating patients with homeopathy. A naturopathic doctor is trained in and use homeopathy as one of many other treatment modalities. An N.D. often prescribes homeopathic remedies in combination with nutritional supplements and herbs.

Yes, especially if you just need a tune-up. But if this is your first time receiving this type of work, then I highly recommend you do at least three sessions to get full benefit.

I accept cash, checks and credit cards (VISA and Master Card). I do not accept insurance. If you have an insurance plan that may cover naturopathic medicine, please ask for appropriate paperwork and you may submit it to your company.

Absolutely. Usually other holistic treatments are complimentary to naturopathic medicine. If other practitioners prescribe herbs or supplements, I ask patients to bring them so I can monitor their regimen and avoid overdosing or possible redundancy.
