Diabetes Naturopaths in Portland, OR

Naturopathic medicine aims to address the underlying cause(s) of disease and support the body in order to restore health and function. I view my role as a physician as more of an educator and counselor. I explain how the body functions under normal circumstances, the ways in which it is affected by disease, and how to restore balance. In my practice I am constantly asking, "Why?" I am not only interested in knowing WHAT is going on with my patients (i.e. achieving a correct diagnosis) but also WHY their symptoms are present in the first place.

We look at familial tendencies and what we call "transgenerational" influences that impact a person's various symptomatology. So much can be done to help a person find the balance, or homeostasis, that will help them reduce or eliminate their problematic symptoms.
