When is the best time to engage in Naturopathic Medicine?
The focus of Naturopathic medicine is to utilize our natural innate healing power to achieve ultimate health.
Dr. Clark's Naturopathic Focus:
When I, Dr. Steve Clark, ND was in medical school, I learned the best way to build a thriving practice was to “put it out there” that I specialize in difficult cases. My goal is to find the reason people with chronic severe problems aren't healing. I use all sorts of diagnostic tools to help figure out why is a person is ill, and focus on healing from that place. The path I followed led me to treat people with severe problems including Lyme Disease, digestive issues, immune disorders, chronic infection, and people who are “at the end of their rope.” This level of naturopathic medicine could be thought of as “correctional naturopathic medicine.” My practice has developed a following of people who appreciate my knack for figuring out and solving problems.
Naturopathic medicine includes so much more than that!
Dr. Nelson's Naturopathic Focus
Dr. Erik O. Nelson, ND has an entirely different focus. Dr. Nelson specializes in maintaining optimal health and wellness. His particular passion is optimizing performance in both sports and aging. Dr. Nelson also has a focus in adolescent and young adult medicine. Dr. Nelson focuses on maintenance and performance aspects of the naturopathic philosophy.
