Naturopathic therapies are chosen based on the individual’s specific needs and their willingness to follow the recommendations of the doctor. Some of the recommendations include the following:
Clinical Nutrition
Naturopathic
Doctors recognize that diet is often the basis for your heath and your
potential to heal. Adopting a healthy diet is often the first step
towards correcting health problems. Many medical conditions can be
treated more effectively when the patient implements specific diets and
uses nutritional supplements. These interventions afford fewer
complications and side effects than some pharmaceutical treatments and
are often more beneficial. The doctor will create an individual
plan with specific dietary recommendations. The doctor is skilled
in teaching you about foods and specific diets such as elimination
diets, cleansing diets, anti-inflammatory diets, gluten-free diets,
along with safe and effective fasting programs.
Lifestyle Counseling and Stress Management
Stress
impacts our lives more than we recognize. In our busy world, it is
easy to adopt a lifestyle which doesn’t promote our health and
wellbeing. How we think and feel often corresponds to the status
of our health. Dr. Fey helps you identify and correct the
stress in your life employing stress reduction techniques, exercise, and
lifestyle counseling to promote a healthier you.
Vitamins, Minerals, Anti-Oxidants and Amino Acids
Nutritional
supplementation may be an effective way to support the body in healing.
Vitamins, minerals, Anti-Oxidants and Amino Acids are the nutrients and
building blocks from which our biochemical reactions occur.
Deficiencies of some of these nutrients have been associated with
various conditions and diseases. Along with adopting a healthy
whole foods diet, nutritional supplementation may help to correct these
conditions.
Naturopathic doctors are experts in the field of nutrition. Our
aim is to help you in finding quality nutritional supplements that are
right for you and to recommend therapeutic dosages. Naturopathic
doctors are also some of the best trained practitioners to understand
the risks of potential drug-herb and drug-nutrient interactions.
Botanicals
Plants
have been used for centuries in traditional medical practices.
Recently research is discovering how and why these traditional medicines
work. Botanicals are less potent and act slower than
pharmaceuticals and as such have fewer side effects and are safer than
drugs when prescribed by a trained practitioner. It should be
noted that many pharmaceuticals were originally derived from plant
sources.
Homeopathy
The
use of homeopathic medicines began more than 200 years ago during a time
when the predominant forms of medicine being used were very
toxic-causing severe problems for the patient. Today we are once
again seeing invasive medicines which may cause severe side effects as
the predominant form of therapy. More and more people are turning
to homeopathic remedies to avoid the potential problems of the
pharmaceuticals being prescribed to them.
The remedies, which are made by diluting and “potentizing” different
plants and minerals, seem stimulate the healing properties of the body.
Conventional medicine highly criticizes the system of homeopathy as
science fails to understand how it works. Recently, experts in the
area of quantum physics are starting to suggest how these remedies may
be influencing the subtle energies of our bodies, thus stimulating the
healing process. Regardless of exactly how homeopathy works it is
widely accepted in many countries and is very safe to use for a wide
variety of conditions.
Bio-therapeutic Drainage
Bio-therapeutic Drainage is a system of homeopathy using a combination of remedies which seek to support the metabolic detoxification of the different organ systems. The combination of remedies are chosen based on the symptoms and condition affecting the patient. The remedies aid in restoring balance in the system and allows the body to regain normal function. Drainage is used in combination with diet and life style modification as well as nutritional and herbal treatments. Drainage as well as standard homeopathy is compatible with drug therapy as there are no possible interactions between the drugs and homeopathic remedies.
