Naturopathy

Naturopathy, or naturopathic medicine, is a system of medicine based on the healing power of nature. Naturopathy is a holistic system, meaning that naturopathic doctors (N.D.s) strive to find the cause of disease by understanding the patient as a totality of body, mind, and spirit. Most N.D.s use a wide variety of therapies and techniques.

In North America, the principles of naturopathy were introduced by Dr. Benedict Lust. He used the term "naturopathy" to describe a clinical practice which integrated natural healing methods such as acupuncture, botanical medicine, homeopathy, manipulative therapy, nutritional therapy, and lifestyle counselling.
