Naturopathic Doctors (NDs) are integrative medical practitioners that are trained to address disease and dysfunction at all levels - body, mind, and spirit. NDs aim to treat and manage patients with various acute and chronic conditions. However, Naturopathic Medicine’s primary goal is to combine the wisdom of nature with the rigors of modern science. Naturopathic doctors are experts in natural medicine and offer personalized, evidence-based therapies in order to treat the body as a whole and aid in facilitating the body’s ability to maintain its health .
An important focus of Naturopathic Medicine is a patient-centric approach centered on each individual patient, and that is what you will experience with Dr. Gail Ravello and her team at Natural Medical Solutions Wellness Center.

Naturopathic Medicine offers an approach that is centered on patient’s wellness, creating health, preventing disease, and identifying and addressing the underlying cause of illness.
Non-toxic, natural therapies are preferred as first-line forms of treatment, including proper diet and nutrition, herbal medicine, healthy movement, nutritional supplements, homeopathy, lifestyle modification, alternative therapies, education, and counseling.
The six principles on which Naturopathy is established are:
Naturopathic doctors are collaborative by training. They teach patients how to assume control and responsibility for their own health. Collaborating on individualized treatment plans that comprehensively address health, lifestyle, and diet concerns, as well as mental wellness and issues like stress, to achieve optimal health outcomes.
There are several foundational approaches to treating disease with Naturopathic Medicine that are core to its practice, including:
The re-emerging Naturopathic Physician is an example of the true meaning of the word “doctor.” Doctor, coming from the Latin “docere,” which means “to teach.” By teaching the patient how to achieve and maintain good health, the Naturopath empowers patients with the proper education and motivational tools that are needed to actively participate in their own healing and health maintenance. With proper instruction, the patient learns how to achieve a state of balance that is conducive to creating health and preventing disease.
Naturopathic Medicine seeks to diagnose, prevent, and treat illness to restore the body’s natural state of health by supporting a person’s inherent self-healing process and stimulating self-healing. While all medical conditions benefit from consultation with a Naturopathic Medicine doctor, some of the illnesses and diseases that respond best to a Naturopathic Medicine approach include:
Mental wellness can be essential in healing and disease prevention. Naturopathic physicians are trained in various psychological techniques including counseling, nutritional balancing, stress management and biofeedback to treat physical as well as mental or emotional conditions like depression and anxiety.
