Naturopathic classes
The Naturopathic Medicine Department also provides an educational component to our patient’s experience. Throughout your treatment, you will have access to educational classes which offer information about vitamin and mineral supplements, natural remedies, nutritional guidance, lifestyle changes, stress management techniques, and strategies for long-term prevention of recurrence.
For example, your naturopathic clinician can provide education about hydrotherapy techniques for you to try at home. Hydrotherapy is the use of alternating hot and cold water applications to the skin. These techniques may help to stimulate circulation (e.g., for peripheral neuropathy), decrease inflammation, and promote the body’s immune system.
