Bastyr NDs Provide Whole-Person Health Care
Bastyr Center naturopathic doctors (NDs) take pride in offering a different kind of health care for you and your family. A main principle of naturopathic medicine is to identify and treat the causes behind a patient's symptoms, rather than merely suppressing them. By taking the time to listen and to get to know you as a whole person, our NDs work with you to identify and address the underlying causes of illness. They might prescribe vitamin/mineral supplements, herbal and homeopathic remedies; provide physical medicine and hydrotherapy treatments; or recommend changes in diet, lifestyle and exercise. Learn more about the benefits of naturopathic medicine and schedule an appointment.
Bastyr Can Help You Beat the Winter Blues
The winter season may seem a bit gloomy to some. The gray clouds, cold weather and lack of sunshine can take a toll on your spirits. Holiday activities and travel plans may leave you stressed and exhausted. Bastyr Center's counseling department provides support for those who deal with depression, fatigue, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), work-related stress, relationship issues and other health issues. Read more about Bastyr Center's counseling services and schedule your appointment today.
Acclaimed Food Writer Michael Pollan to Speak at Founders' Day Weekend
Bastyr University's Founders' Day Weekend will be kicked off by an evening with Michael Pollan. Author of In Defense of Food and The New York Times bestseller, The Omnivore's Dilemma, Pollan is a food writer and environmentalist, described by Newsweek as "… an uncommonly graceful explainer of natural science." He is a contributing writer for The New York Times Magazine and has had his work published in Best American Science Writing (2004) and Best American Essays (1990 and 2003). Pollan will speak on Thursday, October 30 at 7:30 p.m. at Bell Harbor Auditorium. Learn more about this event and other Founders' Day Weekend activities and purchase tickets here.
