Naturopathic Doctors vs. Holistic Doctors vs. Integrative Doctors
Naturopathic Doctors
Naturopathic doctors, also known as NDs or Natural Doctors, strive to be more thorough than traditional physicians when it comes to treating patients so that they can reveal underlying issues from a holistic perspective. Naturopathic doctors have a vast knowledge of standard Western medicine, pharmacology, and natural therapeutics that allows them to investigate, understand, and treat the root of the issue, rather than simply prescribing medications to temporarily manage symptoms.
Naturopathic doctors integrate different treatments to support a happy, healthy, and active lifestyle from a full-body full-system perspective. Our Calgary Naturopathic doctors are experts when it comes to plans that include elements like nutritional changes, botanical (herbal) medicine, homeopathy, traditional Chinese medicine, lifestyle counselling, physical medicine, hydrotherapy and more. Naturopathic doctors look for the underlying cause of illness or disease, rather than focus on removing symptoms. They promote healthy living and well-being, which is why naturopathic doctors in Calgary have been successful in achieving holistic wellness with many Calgarians.
Though Naturopathic doctors in Calgary are licensed to diagnose and treat disease, they cannot prescribe pharmaceuticals in Alberta.
Holistic Doctors
Holistic doctors combine conventional medicine and alternative therapies to treat patients regarding a wide variety of ailments. They take time to understand and heal the whole body, while still offering some Western medications and minor surgical procedures - hence the title ‘holistic’ doctor. This includes examining the body, mind, spirit, and emotions, along with recognizing any potential triggers. Holistic doctors understand that everything is connected, and that adjusting even the smallest things can decrease many negative effects on overall health. Our holistic doctors in Calgary encourage patients to improve their nutrition, monitor their sleep, and seek ways to reduce stress. Natural doctors can provide you with relationship and spiritual counselling, acupuncture, naturopathy, homeopathy, chiropractic care, and massage therapy. Reach out and connect with a naturopathic doctor in Calgary and reveal your healthy potential today.
Integrative Medicine Doctors
Integrative Medicine Doctors, also known as Integrative Medical Doctors or Integrative Doctors, consider the whole person and the patient’s unique condition. They inspect the biological, behavioural, psychosocial, and environmental influences that influence the body and mind to begin treating the patient. The patient and integrative medical doctor create a partnership that requires open communication to navigate the issues at hand with different therapeutic approaches so as to best optimize wellness.
