What is Naturopathic Medicine?

A Philosophy more than a System

Naturopathic medicine is a commitment:

  • to see patients as whole people, not body parts or diseases

  • to teach them how to stay healthy

  • to trust that their bodies are powerful agents for their own healing

  • to use the lowest-risk medicines possible, and only when needed

  • to identify the true roots of illness and help patients address them

A Broad Toolkit

  • The healing power of touch, time, and connection

  • Sound advice for establishing a solid foundation for health

  • Nutritional guidance for well-being and specific healing

  • Plant medicine to support or treat as necessary

  • Deep, whole-person healing with constitutional homeopathy

  • Bodywork, movement, and other physical medicine

  • Appropriate pharmaceuticals as necessary

  • Minor in-office surgical procedures

What is Home Birth Midwifery?

Midwives are specialists in physiologic birth. We see birth as a human experience, not a medical emergency.

Birth is a sphere where it is undeniable that humans are animals; we are programmed to seek quiet, dark, calm, safe places to bring our babies into the world and most of the time, birth proceeds most smoothly when mothers are well cared-for in pregnancy and disturbed as little as possible in labor.

As a home birth midwife, I offer comprehensive prenatal care, attend deliveries in families’ homes, and provide postpartum support both in home and in office. Interested in learning more about home birth? Schedule a Discovery Call
