Tolle Causam

Picture
"Treat the cause", we hear this phrase a lot these days.  As the population becomes more educated about health care and their individual health, they want better care. Care that doesn't simply cover the symptoms up but treats the underlying physiological process. 


Treating the cause of your ailment is not always easy. It takes time and a skilled doctor that cares enough to identify the cause. Most pharmaceutical based medication are focused on symptoms and don't take into consideration the bigger picture. Looking at the bigger picture of how medicines will effect other areas of your body are ver important. Take high blood pressure, as an example.  When someone has high blood pressure there is a reason(s) for it. Sometimes it is diet related, sometimes it has to do with kidney function, other times it is stress related, inflammatory triggers play a role, and at times the cause can be a combination of many factors. It takes time and specific tests to understand which is going to have the biggest impact to reduce your blood pressure.  With this time comes the knowledge to make good decisions and deliver effective treatment. 



Treating the cause is a fundament principal that guides treatment and care by naturopathic doctors. To get more information on a naturopathic doctor near you, contact us.
