Dr Diana Semjonov, Naturopathic Doctor
Dr Diana Semjonov ND is a licensed naturopathic doctor. She attended a 4-year, graduate level naturopathic medical school and is educated in basic medical sciences similar to a medical doctor. But she also studied natural therapy with a strong emphasis on disease prevention and optimizing wellness. In addition to a standard medical curriculum, the naturopathic doctor is required to complete four years of training in clinical nutrition, acupuncture, homeopathic medicine, botanical medicine, psychology, and counselling (to encourage people to make lifestyle changes in support of their personal health). A naturopathic doctor takes rigorous professional board exams so that he or she may be licensed by a state or jurisdiction as a primary care general practice doctor.
Dr. Diana's science and engineering background allows her to understand and use the most up-to-date research available. She combines this scientific knowledge with the wisdom of naturopathic modalities including botanical medicine, homeopathy, functional medicine, integrative medicine and counselling and mind-body techniques.
Dr. Diana's practice is rooted in the naturopathic principle, "Vis Medicatrix Naturae" - the healing power of nature. Therefore the focus of diagnosis is to uncover the root-cause of the "dis-ease" or imbalance in the system and the focus of treatment is to stimulate of the body's self-healing process. When the body can self-heal, "true health" - rather than pharmaceutically-supported health - can be achieved.
