ND Hichey @courant.com: NDs are "Medical Detectives"...So Detect THIS!

here, where my bullshit detector went CRAZY:

001. in "Tao Center Treats The Whole Person" (2015-11-13) we're told:

"[as reported by Melanie Savage] Dr. Myriah Hinchey [...is] a Connecticut licensed naturopathic physician [...who] earned her doctorate of naturopathic medicine from the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2005 [...]";

UB is a place that claims 'science subset naturopathy subset homeopathy and kind'.

"[she] specializes in the reversal and prevention of chronic disease [...]";

PROVE IT, scientifically.  But then, if homeopathy is science in Naturopathyland, all claims are suspect by UB NDs and UB "health science" graduates.

"[the ND states she] 'identifies the underlying physiological / biochemical cause of a patient's symptoms and then teaches him/her how to correct it by making simple but effective changes to their lifestyle, often utilizing a combination of nutrition, supplementation, exercise, stress management, acupuncture, and massage therapy [...]";

well, we know acupuncture is ELABORATE, THEATRICAL placebo. In terms of SCIENCE.

"[we're told] 'we act as medical detectives [...]";

so DETECT THIS: naturopathy, with its claims of 'science subset nonscience', is full of bullshit.  Why should an area full of bullshit be trusted to perform primary care?  Licensed falsehood marches on...
