"What is Naturopathic Medicine?" Naturopathic medicine is a system of medicine that employs the healing power of nature. The objective of the naturopathic physician is to restore the normal, healthy functioning of the body through the use of substances and treatments that enhance the body's natural healing capability. The patient's recognition of, and accountability for his or her lifestyle and behavior patterns is an integral part of achieving successful medical outcomes. Some of the therapeutic techniques used by Dr. Penrod include:
Botanical Medicine - the use of plant substances for their traditional use in healing and active ingredients
Homeopathy - the use of minute amounts of natural substances that stimulate the body's self-healing capabilities
Nutritional Counseling - specific individual programs including vitamins, minerals, and other supplements
