Interview by Lon Woodbury
Dr. Jade Wimberley, a Consulting Naturopathic Physician at Open Sky Wilderness Therapy Program, discussed with Lon Woodbury on L.A. Talk Radio how Open Sky's approach to wellness relies on many principles of Naturopathic medicine. In fact, Open Sky is currently the only holistic wilderness therapy program in the country.
She pointed out that Naturopathy focuses on optimizing health and wellness by including nature's help in healing mind and body. Unlike conventional medicine, where the doctor invests an average of about 7 minutes with each client, a Naturopathic specialist will devote an hour or even more to deeply comprehend the patient's personal history in an effort to isolate the cause of the disease.
