About naturopathic care
A regulated profession, here to talk it through.
Naturopathic doctors are regulated health professionals in Ontario. They are registered with the College of Naturopaths of Ontario and practise within the Naturopathy Act, 2007 and the College's standards.
A naturopathic consultation looks at your health history, your daily habits and your goals. Naturopathic doctors commonly discuss nutrition, lifestyle and botanical approaches, and tailor what they suggest to you.
Naturopathic approaches vary in how much scientific evidence supports them. Ask your naturopathic doctor why they are recommending something, and what the evidence is.
Naturopathic care is not a replacement for care from your physician or nurse practitioner. Tell all of your health care providers what you are doing, and do not stop or change a prescribed medication without speaking to the provider who prescribed it. For physician or nurse practitioner consultations, see Virtual Consultations.
What a visit can include
Time to talk, and a plan you can use.
Everything here can happen in a video visit. Some naturopathic treatments, such as acupuncture and hands-on therapies, need an in-person visit and are not provided through ONRx virtual consultations.
Your history and goals
A conversation about your health history, symptoms, current care and what you would like to work on.
Nutrition and eating habits
Dietary guidance based on your health history and your preferences.
Sleep, stress and movement
Practical suggestions you can build into daily life.
Botanical products and supplements
Where appropriate, your naturopathic doctor may discuss them, including how they could interact with medications you already take.
Prevention and wellness planning
Longer-term planning around the habits that support your health.
Honest about limits
If another health professional or an in-person assessment is the better next step, your naturopathic doctor will tell you.
