What is Naturopathic Care?
Founded on Nature’s Principles, Influenced by Modern Science, and Guided by Practitioner Experience
Whole Body Health
Naturopathic doctors (NDs) use a wide lens to consider everything that makes up a human. Every part of a person's life helps make up who they are. In other words, this includes physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual facets. These aspects have to be considered as part of a complete health plan. NDs take that info and make personalized health recommendations uniquely tailored to each client.
Healing Power of Nature
Naturopathic doctors believe the body has a natural ability to heal itself. Practitioners spend a lot more time face-to-face with their clients. First office visits usually are 60 to 120 minutes. This gives NDs the chance to help clients find the source of their health issues and support them from the inside out. Once the root cause of the body's dis-ease is found, nature takes control and healing begins.
Educating Clients
There is no higher calling than teaching. The goal is to inspire clients to create their own wellness from the inside out. NDs assist their clients by helping them understand how their bodies' function. NDs specialize in answering questions and educating clients on what being healthy is. As a result, clients learn to be more interactive/proactive with their own health and general wellness.

Testimonials
"After weeks/months of increasing shoulder pain and loss of range of motion, my shoulder pain is gone and I'm back to normal, thanks to treatment and advice from Dr. B! She has a unique combination of skills and knowledge acquired from her diverse background. It's great to have a professional who can address issues from a more holistic perspective!"
"Dr. Blandford is very knowledgeable about a wide variety of anatomy and health issues. She cured my heartburn that was chronic for 2 years and also helped a lot with a knee issue through massage and supplements. She is by far the best doctor I've seen for really helping and listening. I would highly recommend her."
"I have struggled with digestive issues for over a decade - I finally found help and answers from Dr. Amanda Blandford. She is fantastic. She listens and asks a lot of questions to make sure she knows the full story. After helping with my initial concerns I realized there were a lot of things I lived with and just accepted them as "normal"; well, they were not. She guided me on the path of improved health and a better understanding of health. She is exceptional and knowledgeable - if she doesn't know the answer, she does her research and gets back to you! This is not a quick fix, this is not prescription medication driven, this requires investment in yourself to live a better life!"
"Dr. Blandford has a wealth of knowledge that I'm so fortunate to have found. She is a breath of fresh air."
"Dr. Blandford does not only provide the best therapeutic massage I've ever had, but she also has great knowledge and understanding of how to prevent illness and heal the body rather than just manage illness. I highly recommend, and have recommended her to friends because I've experienced solid results. If you're dissatisfied with layers and layers of pharmaceutical medications to manage your symptoms, GO SEE HER!"
"She’s the best Dr. around. I have gone and seen her twice for deep tissue work and both times I’ve felt amazing afterwards. The Doc truly cares about each one of her patients & even gives advice about how to better you’re overall health! I would 100% recommend going to see Dr.Blandford. I drive from Delton to Rockford & the drive is well worth it!"
