Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic services involve an individualized approach including some combination of nutrition/lifestyle changes, herbals, homeopathy, vitamins/nutrients, and/or hydrotherapy.
First visits are scheduled for 90 minutes and the time is used to discuss all aspects of the person’s history including physical, mental, and emotional issues. Diagnostic testing and diagnostic physical examination is not available in the NY office but is available as necessary at the VT office. Specialty wellness testing may be suggested at the NY visit to get to the underlying root cause of the issue.
