Answers:
as quoted from the listed source site below:
"Naturopathic medicine (also known as naturopathy) is a complementary and alternative medicine which emphasizes the ability of the body to heal and maintain itself, which practitioners believe is innate!. Naturopathic practice may include different modalities such as abstinence, acupuncture, colonic irrigation, counseling, chiropractic, diet, exercise, herbalism, homeopathy, hydrotherapy, environmental medicine, manual therapy, orthomolecular medicine and relaxation!. Practitioners emphasize a holistic approach to patient care, and may recommend patients use conventional medicine alongside their treatments!. Naturopathy has its origins in a variety of world medicine practices, including the Ayurveda of India and Nature Cure of Europe!.[1] It is practiced in many countries but subject to different standards of regulation and levels of acceptance!.

Naturopathic practitioners prefer not to use invasive surgery, or most synthetic drugs, preferring natural remedies, for instance relatively unprocessed or whole medications, such as herbs and foods!. Graduates of a naturopathic medical school in North America are trained to use diagnostic tests such as imaging and blood tests before deciding upon the full course of treatment!. If the patient does not respond to these treatments, they are often referred to physicians who utilize standard medical care to treat the disease or condition!."
