Can Naturopathic Medicine Help You?

Illness, exhaustion, pain, stress, depression – these things do not “just happen”. There is always a reason for them. They are caused, and the causes of these conditions will differ from patient to patient. 

The naturopathic doctors at Green Apple Health Care locate and treat the core cause of the health problems with a program that is customized to each individual patient. We use naturopathic medicine to implement a simple, natural and preventative approach to help patients achieve life-long wellbeing.

What is Naturopathic Medicine?

Naturopathic medicine is a primary healthcare system that combines scientific knowledge with traditional natural forms of healing.

Naturopathic doctors address the root causes of health problems, rather than the symptoms, using natural therapies rather than drugs. By emphasizing the body’s natural self-healing process, a naturopathic doctor works with the patient to find the most appropriate treatment to restore and maintain optimum health.

What Training Do Naturopathic Doctors Receive?

Naturopathic doctors are highly trained.  They have a minimum of seven years post-secondary education, including a Bachelor of Science and a four-year Naturopathic medical degree.  

Some naturopathic doctors receive additional training that allows them to provide advanced naturopathic treatment options to patients.

Naturopathic doctors are licensed and regulated in Alberta by the College of Naturopathic Doctors of Alberta.

Working with a Naturopathic Doctor 

A naturopathic doctor is a patient’s partner in healthcare. 

When people have health challenges, we clearly understand they are looking for solutions. The team at Green Apple Health Care focuses its treatment plans with outcome-based programs; we target outcomes instead of conditions. We practice results-focused medicine, complemented with an overall positive patient experience.

We work with our patients to create treatment programs that not only work but that work for them.  A patient’s work and family demands and other life circumstances are taken fully into consideration when developing the treatment plan.  We know that a treatment plan not only has to work, but has to work for the patient. Our doctors focus on you and will work with you to carefully construct a personal program that will address your needs, your health goals, and your lifestyle.

Our outcomes include reduced stress, increased energy, better focus, weight loss, fewer colds and flus, increased productivity at work, less downtime and more time doing the things you love, and a higher overall quality of life through better health.

The doctors at Green Apple Health Care do not work in isolation from the rest of the healthcare community.  We are happy to work with other health care providers to create a fully integrated, patient-centered model of health for maximum treatment effectiveness for the patient.
