The doctor must encourage the patient to be responsible for his or her own health and give them all the knowledge necessary to assist this endeavor. The total health of the patient has to be taken into account, and must include any emotional, social or spiritual matters that are affecting health.

Practitioners of naturopathy will rarely treat the disease, but concentrate on finding the reason why it has occurred and see if it can be then eradicated or prevented. They are taught in their studies to treat the deficiencies and imbalances in a body that cause it to lose health, and this helps to make any cure much more effective.
