How Naturopathic Medicine Works
Naturopathic medicine is a primary health care discipline that addresses the root cause of illness and incorporates treatment and prevention strategies that support the body’s own healing potential. Using a thorough assessment of each patient and standard medical diagnostic tests, Dr. James designs individualized treatment plans drawing from one or all of the following disciplines: clinical nutrition and supplementation, acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine, botanical medicine, and homeopathic medicine.
Dr. Ashley James is passionate about individualized medicine and about treating the whole person using evidence based medicine and naturopathic healing therapies. Dr. James has a special interest in dermatology, sport nutrition, naturopathic sport medicine, and weight management. Every patient receives a customized treatment plan that includes information about primary prevention strategies, current health status, barriers to health and underlying imbalances that contribute to symptoms or disease.
