Principles of Care in Pacifica

First do no harm

Naturopathic Doctors are commited to gentle, safe, and comfortable health care. We strive to offer treatments with minimal side effects that guide the body on its healing path while avoiding suppression or discomfort.

Treat the cause

We work with you to identify the underlying cause of disease rather than suppressing symptoms. By addressing the roots of illness, the benefits of treatment are long lasting and sustainable.

Doctor as teacher

Naturopathic Doctors hold enormous value in educating and sharing knowledge with you so that you can understand your body’s processes and all of the diagnoses and treatments you are given. Through teaching you, we encourage you to take responsibility for your own health.

Treat the whole person

Naturopathic Medicine takes a holistic approach to health, acknowledging physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, social, hereditary and environmental contributors to health. We treat each person as an individual and offer unique customized approaches for each patient.

To emphasize prevention

We treat a wide array of acute and chronic disease and strive to provide long lasting effects through Naturopathic treatment and education. We hold great value in health promotion and preventative medicine, offering tools to help encourage optimal lifelong wellness.

The healing power of nature

Naturopathic Doctors recognize the body’s innate ability to heal, and strive to remove obstacles to cure and encourage healing gently, by cooperating with the body and minimizing harm.
