About Krista Loughead
Naturopathic medicine is a unique and comprehensive approach to improving health and treating illness. Focusing on prevention, and using natural substances and treatments, naturopathic doctors (NDs) support and stimulate the body’s ability to heal itself.
The primary goal of naturopathic treatment is to address the cause of illness, rather than simply treat or suppress symptoms. The patient is seen as a whole person and the ND takes the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions into account when diagnosing and developing a treatment plan.
The primary therapies that I use in practice are: clinical nutrition, botanical medicine, homeopathic medicine, acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, physical therapies, and counselling.
