[Mission emphasis: I do this continuous exercise to expose the inherent fraud that naturopathy is logically, academically, commercially, legislatively / politically and clinically. Hugely misleading category labels such as "science based" and "evidence based" "nonsectarian" are being placed upon what truly is science-exterior and even more so disproven sectarian / quack nonsense! Then, the largest of betrayals toward the public occurs with highly orchestrated '.gov' endorsements of naturopaths as "licensed" and "professional." Beware, the naturopathic licensed falsehood racket marches on!]

do not guarantee fundamental soundness: the newly required
licensing exam falsely labels homeopathy 'science', for instance.
What has the State of Pennsylvania got into bed with?
Pseudoscience and such. Doesn't sound like public protection
to me. And so there's more to naturopathy than merely the
marketing patina of 'preventative care.' Much more, and it
leaves you wondering: why is so much nonsense tolerated? -r.c."

(2016-11-14):
"The Naturocrit Podcast and Blog: What I find
more basically amusing is this fact: naturopathy
claims that a vital force spirit runs physiolog
purposefully. Now, placing, as ND Lynch does,
so much emphasis on a physiochemical basis of life,
by way of his positioning of genetics as so useful and
important, actually belies that naturopathic central
vitalistic-spiritistic-teleological belief. If life in structure
and function is causally due to one’s genetic inheritance,
and environment, it makes naturopathy’s vital force spirit
claim irrelevant. That’s what fascinates me about
naturopathy, the irrational muddle that it all is.
Naturopaths want to be simultaneously two things,
at least: science, with all its causalistic determinism
and physiochemical basis for life, in order to actually
be ‘in this world’, and yet also vitalistic and supernaturalistic,
so it can float away into ‘otherworldly New Ageisms’.
These are mutually exclusive positions, yet naturopathy
calls both science. Guess which part isn’t science?!?!?! -r.c."

"[from the video] I am a naturopathic doctor [...] I practice family medicine [...] we're looking at the whole person [...and] trying to look at the underlying issues [...] a dectective in that sense [...] I'll treat with things like [...] homeopathy [...] richmondnaturalmed.com";
homeopathy, aka pseudopharmacy, because that's SO naturopathic. Let's go to her practice!
002.b. her bio. tells us:
"I have additional training and certification in applied kinesiology (AK)
from the International College of Applied Kinesiology (ICAK)";
a pseudodiagnostic, because that's also SO naturopathic!
