Supporting the body’s innate ability to heal itself is the heart of Naturopathic Medicine.Naturopathic Doctors can be considered the general practitioners (GPs) of complimentary therapies, being licensed to use Nutrition/Supplementation, Botanical/Herbal Medicine, Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, Homeopathy, Hydrotherapy, Counseling, Soft Tissue Manipulation and Spinal Manipulation.Additional certification also can allow for the use of regulated injection therapies.Naturopathic Medicine recognizes that every individual is unique even if they share the same medical diagnosis as another, and that by utilizing these various therapies, treatment plans can be tailored specifically to individual needs.Careful consideration is always given to any other types of treatments that each patient is utilizing/undergoing, whether complimentary or medical/pharmaceutical, to ensure that treatments are safe. Patients of the Menen Centre for Optimum Health can be comforted in knowing that interactions between drugs and nutrients/herbs/foods, whether documented or potential, are carefully analyzed so that ‘complementary’ therapies will do just that – complement each other, rather than interfere with each other.At the Menen Centre, our Naturopathic Doctors work closely with our other therapists who have specialized within their specific therapeutic fields to provide comprehensive and safe care for all patients at our clinic.
