Qu’est-ce que NDMAPS™?



Le Panel de solutions d’avancement médical pour les docteurs en naturopathie (Naturopathic Doctor Medical Advancement Panel Solutions) ou NDMAPS™ est le premier programme du genre, comblant le fossé entre l’industrie des produits de santé naturels et la pratique clinique, le tout pour le bénéfice des praticiens et de leurs patients. Ce projet révolutionnaire et innovant s’efforce d’initier le processus en favorisant des conversations qui cultivent la confiance, ouvrant ultimement la voie à l’établissement de recherches cliniques sur les formulations de produits naturels et les effets synergiques qu’elles offrent. Cette évaluation suit un modèle distinct de la médecine conventionnelle, aligné sur nos principes naturopathiques, qui mettent l’accent sur une approche holistique. Pour nous, les études de cas représentent le summum de la connaissance. Notre apprentissage découle d’une écoute attentive et d’une observation astucieuse — et cela résume l’essence de NDMAPS™.
