NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE
Think of us as the GPs of natural medicine
Naturopathic clinic in Hong Kong
Our naturopaths bring together the laws of science with centuries old healing traditions to optimise your wellbeing.
The basis of naturopathy is the idea that everyone is capable of self-healing given the right support.
Our naturopaths don’t just look at your presenting symptoms. They evaluate your nutritional status, genetics, family history, lifestyle, emotions and more to get the full picture of your health.
Consultations are available in person in our Hong Kong clinic, or online.
Functional medicine and testing
There is overlap between naturopathy and functional medicine, as practitioners often borrow concepts from the other discipline.
We use industry-leading tests (a key part of functional medicine) to find the root cause of your condition, so we can treat it effectively.
Nutrition. Allergies and Intolerances. Gut health. Hormonal health. DNA based plans. Toxin levels. Health screenings.
Our naturopaths use your diagnostics to personalise treatment to your unique biology.
Learn more
Your treatment will be tailor-made for you. Grounded in your needs, goals and health history, your treatment will strengthen any weaknesses identified during testing.Our naturopaths use personalised medicine, including prescribed herbal tinctures and clinical grade supplements that can’t be bought over the counter to heal your body.They’ll work with you to set diet and lifestyle changes that you feel you can stay consistent with.Some of our naturopaths use homeopathy as a complementary treatment. They may also refer you beyond their services, to other modalities beneficial to your healing. This includes counselling, bodywork, medical doctors and lifestyle coaching.
Our herbal tinctures are custom made in-clinic using the highest quality ingredients, specifically for you.No mixture is the same; each is tailored to meet your needs.
Our clinical-grade supplements are vetted by our naturopaths for efficacy, and closely monitored to ensure they remedy nutritional imbalances and give you real results.Our formulas combine award-winning scientific research with the wisdom of ancient remedies. Our range complies with GMPs and is independently tested for purity and quality.
Your initial consultation is thorough and takes around an hour. Your naturopath will review your diet, stress levels, lifestyle and assess you for toxin levels. They will recommend any necessary tests and prescribe tailored treatments to meet your needs.Follow up consultations usually take half an hour. Your naturopath will check how the treatment is working and detail any test results or diagnosis. They’ll give diet and lifestyle recommendations and a realistic idea of how long changes will take to work.Further sessions will check the effects of your therapies, as you go through healing. You may experience several stages (detoxification, nutritional repair and rebalancing) as your body’s organs return to health.
Not all natural medicine practitioners are licensed. Ours are though.It’s important to know that not all naturopaths train to the same level, and not all are licensed. Only naturopaths who trained in the USA and Canada can be licensed, and are called naturopathic doctors (ND's).In Australia, New Zealand, UK and Europe, naturopaths are not doctors, and the training for naturopaths can vary widely within these countries.In Hong Kong, the Integrative Association of Naturopaths of Hong Kong (IANHK) was established to support standards of naturopathy practised in HK.All naturopaths and naturopathic doctors at IMI are members of IANHK and are qualified in accordance with the World Naturopathic Federation (WNF) requirements.
