Naturopathic Medicine continues to get the recognition it deserves

A friend of mine who lives in New York City sent me this link. Naturopathic doctors are not licensed in the state of New York, though they have been working on passing a licensing law for the past few years. I hope it happens soon. Many wonderful naturopathic doctors practice in New York but are limited in what kinds of care they can provide.

Naturopathic medicine holds such promise for the future of health care. I have personally seen the power of good quality natural medicine. When coupled with highly educated health practitioners - natural medicine provides incredible results for patients courageous enough to give it a try. I use the term courageous because unfortunately we live in a climate of suspicion and fear of natural medicine. This perspective is propagated by other competing economic interests.

I hope you find this article interesting. Our medical system does not have to be based on a divided and divisive system - we can all work together to decrease suffering and increase healthy full lives.
