NATUROPATHIC CONSENT TO TREATMENT FORM 2 Bothell Natural Medicine

Naturopathic Medicine is the treatment and prevention of diseases by natural means. Naturopaths assess the whole person, taking into consideration physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of the individual. Gentle, non- invasive techniques are generally used in order to stimulate the body’s inherent healing capacity.

A number of different approaches are used. Diet and nutritional supplements, botanical medicine, homeopathy, hydrotherapy and lifestyle counseling are the mainstays of naturopathic medicine.

Individual diets and nutritional supplements are recommended to address deficiencies, treat disease processes and promote health. The benefits include increased energy, optimized gastrointestinal function, improved immunity and general well being.

Botanical Medicine is a plant-based medicine using herbal teas, tinctures, capsules and other forms of herbal preparations to assist in the recovery from injury and disease. These compounds are also used to boost the body’s immune system and prevent disease.

Homeopathy is a form of medicine based on the Law of Similars- that is, the use of extremely diluted doses of plant, animal or mineral origins to stimulate the body’s ability to heal itself. Homeopathy is a powerful tool and affects healing on a physical and emotional level.

Hydrotherapy refers to the use of hot and cold water applications to improve circulation and stimulate the immune system.

As naturopathic medicine is a holistic approach to health, lifestyle is considered relevant to most health problems. I will try to help you to identify risk factors and make recommendations to help you optimize your physical, mental and emotional environment.

I will take a thorough case history, do a screening physical examination and develop a treatment plan.

Even the gentlest therapies have their complications in certain physiological conditions such as: pregnancy and lactation, in very young children, or in those with multiple medications. Some therapies must be used with caution in certain diseases such as diabetes, heart, liver or kidney disease. It is very important that you inform me immediately of any disease process that you are suffering from or if you are taking any medications. If you are pregnant, suspect you are pregnant or you are breast-feeding please inform me as well.

There are some slight health risks to treatment by naturopathic medicine. These include but are not limited to: Temporary aggravation of pre-existing symptoms Allergic reactions to herbs or supplements Bruising from intramuscular injection, mesotherapy and neural therapy Aggravation from homeopathic remedy

I ______understand that my naturopathic doctor will answer any questions to the best of her ability. I understand that results are not guaranteed. I do not expect my naturopath to be able to anticipate and explain all risks and complications. I will rely on my naturopathic doctor to exercise judgment during the course of the procedure which they feel at that time is in my best interests based on the facts then known. With this knowledge, I voluntarily consent to diagnostic and therapeutic procedures mentioned above, except for: (please list any exceptions): ______
