Are there certain diseases not to see a naturopath for?
It depends. Naturopathic Physicians can deal with primarily any disease however, in some states, they are limited in the ways they can practice and the options they can offer you. Even cancer can be dealt with usually as long as there is also a oncologist is onboard as well. Just a note: there is a difference between a Naturopathic Physician that is trained in a 4 year accredited University with Board exams, and a Naturopath that gets their degree online. READ MORE

We help work on the root cause of a problem and have many tools in our tool box to assist you in achieving your optimal health. In Health, Lisa Ballantyne, ND READ MORE
