Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Traditional Naturopath?
A traditional naturopath has earned a Doctoral degree in naturopathy*, which takes 3 to 5 years to obtain. A traditional naturopath is a descendant of the original naturopaths, and is a non-invasive practitioner who does not diagnose, prescribe, treat or cure diseases.
How is it different from "conventional" treatments and approaches to health?
Traditional naturopathy is different from Allopathic and conventional approaches to health in that a naturopath educates, empowers, and enlightens the patient. Traditional naturopathy is focused on total wellbeing, not just masking symptoms and issues. Traditional naturopaths like Julie Miller are invested in helping you cleanse your body and spirit as you begin your journey to better health inside and out.

This is the area where we had great success. You'll come to our center and receive a complete physical assessment and find out the "root cause" of your conception issues (and there is a root cause!). We'll then move forward in a non-invasive holistic course of care. We helped 13 couples conceive their beautiful children, and we believe you can benefit from our guidance.
Is a naturopathic approach to health safe for children? At what age can they begin?
Yes, a naturopathic approach to healthcare is safe for children of all ages. We can even begin on focusing on your child's health during pregnancy.
I have heard that some side effects can occur when taking a holistic approach, such as rashes, loose stool, or a feeling of being sick. Is this true?
When the body is full of free radicals and toxins and you choose to get control of your health, those symptoms are a sign of the toxins/free radicals are being removed from the body as it attempts to rebuild new cells to fight off any new external obstacles. There maybe initial side effects of detoxification (detox)... But those side effects aren't unique to our holistic approach and are often found with any detox regiment. Detox side effects are not long lasting and subside when your body is cleared of offending chemical, metal, bacterial, fungal, parasitic, and viral invasions.
What can I expect to experience during detoxification (detox)?
One can expect to feel nauseated, dizzy, and you may experience headaches depending ion the amount of free radicals and toxin that have been held in your tissue. Once the initial detox is over, your body will find its natural balance and you'll feel better than ever.
Is there a naturopathic alternative for cancer treatments such as chemo therapy and radiation?
Besides the conventional cancer treatments, we at the Naturopathic Center for Wellness believe in a tiered approach to helping your body. First is feeding your body thee organic nutrition it needs to strengthen itself. Secondly, we support your body with organic whole foods supplements and herbs. Thirdly, we utilizes Cranial Sacral therapy and Somato-Emotional Response therapy.
Is there an alternative approach to calm the affects of cancer treatments such chemotherapy and radiation, instead of excessive pain, anti-nausea, etc. pills?
Yes, CST and some whole food herbs can be used for nausea and pain relief when going through chemotherapy and radiation treatments.
*Naturopathic Medicine does not claim to cure caner, only to seek out the root cause of symptoms and intervene with the whole food supplements, herbs, cranial sacral therapy, and bio meridian technology for testing meridian points correlating to major organ systems.
