What is Naturopathic Medicine?

An evidence-informed approach that considers the whole person.

 

Naturopathic medicine is a regulated health profession in Ontario that brings together thorough clinical assessment and evidence-informed natural therapies—including clinical nutrition, botanical medicine, acupuncture, homeopathy, physical medicine, and lifestyle counselling—to address health concerns in a way that reflects each patient’s individual circumstances. Care may be provided on its own or alongside conventional medical treatment.

At Yakovleva Integrative Naturopathy, no two care plans are alike. Each begins with listening: understanding your health history, your concerns, and what has and has not worked for you in the past, and building from there.
