001. at nh1.com, we're told in "New Year’s Resolutions Stalled? Try These Tips From Local Naturopathic Doctors" (2019-02-06) [2019 archived]:
"[from the description] on Good Morning New Hampshire on 107.7 The Pulse & 107.3 WEMJ, Pat Kelly welcomes Greg Lessard of the Concord Food Coop in Concord, along with Dr Amanda Hegnauer and Dr Pamela Herring [a 1988 Bastyr graduate], both naturopathic doctors practicing locally. We talked about the benefits of invigorating your New Year’s Resolution in a natural way! Plenty of great lifestyle tips to utilize every day";
and embedded is the following video.
002. at YouTube, there's "New Year's Tips from Naturopathic Doctors" [saved 2019-02-06], which states:

"[from the description] this week on Co-op Community Connections, Greg Lessard from Concord Food Co-op welcomes Dr.Amanda Hegnauer and Dr.Pamela Herring, both naturopathic doctors, to discuss Tips for the New Year![...]";
"[from the video, which runs about 20 minutes] Concord Food Co-op [...host] we're going to talk about naturopathy [...with] Dr. Amanda Hegnauer [...] a primary care naturopathic doctor [...and] Dr. Pamela Herring [...here for] 28 years [...] naturopathic ways are not that far off the beaten path, are they? [...NDs say] 'we have ways to get you to where you need to be in a more natural way' [...] but Pam you also do some homeopathy [...] I'm diabetic [...]";
the principal [guest?] host is THE complete cheerleader, a naive / lay Chatty Kathy. There's not an ounce of criticism and particularly, not an ounce of criticism about naturopathy's homeopathy, which is SO BOGUS. By the way, the news.google.com listing for this interview has a thumbnail of homeopathic pellets:
.
.
"[ND Herr.] we have lots of ways to do it that don't involve prescription drugs [...] sugar reduces your immune ability [...and take] echinacea [...] it does work [...and mentions] accountability [...homeopathy is] part of the naturopathic modalities [...which uses] microdoses [...] to stimulate the body's healing process [...] I use homeopathy with almost everybody [...and she mentions] Oscillococcinum [...for] colds and flu [...and] it's great [...and ND Heg. mentions] elderberry [...and] the beauty of naturopathic medicine [...and sugar] creates that inflammation [...and the host promotes the NDs' contact information]";
oh my. Let's take account. Particularly, naturopathy subset homeopathy. And need I point out that ND Herring is a Bastyr ND graduate, and BU is famous for calling such science-ejected bogosities as homeopathy "science-based." I'd say BU is like a billion dollars in the red for that misrepresentation...
003. ND Pamela Herring's beautiful [and brief] practice at drpamelaNH.com:
003.a. in "Meet Dr. Herring" [2019 archived] we're told:
"Dr. Herring is a licensed naturopathic doctor with specialty certification in classical homeopathy. Dr Herring founded the Naturopathic Clinic of Concord in 1988 and practiced there for 28 years [...] treatments can include [...] homeopathic medicines [...] Dr. Herring is committed to empowering her patients [...] using gentle, non-invasive and effective treatments [...]";
now, that certification is AANP's DHANP. I do not find any naturopathic principles or explanation of naturopathy at this website through a Google search.
.003.b. there once was a pamelaherring.com which had up in a FAQ page [2004 archived]:
"what is naturopathic medicine? [...] principles of naturopathic medicine: [#1] the healing power of nature. Recognizes the body’s ability to heal itself [...]";
so, that's coded vitalism.
"comparing assumptions. Conventional (allopathic) vs. alternative (naturopathic) By Dana Ullman [...] view of the body: C: Works mechanistically as a biochemical, physiological entity. A: Not only a biochemical, physiological entity; it is also surrounded by and suffused with energy fields (chi, ki, vital force, bioenergy) [,..]";
and that is blatant vitalism as energy fields, chi, ki, vital force, bioenergy. None of which are supported by science in the sense of a special force of life. The admission is that none of that is biochemical or physiological. So what is it? And how would you know its there if it isn't those things, those measurable things? And modern medicine is not allopathic, a term coined by homeopathy's founder Hahnemann.
[...and attributed to ND Rollo] for many people, naturopathic medicine is a safe, sensible and cost effective alternative to standard medical treatments [...] naturopathic treatments include[...] homeopathic medicines [...] these therapies strengthen weak organs, return the nervous and immune and other systems of the body to a state of balance, and prevent disease in the future [...] most N.D.’s stock a pharmacy in their clinic where patients can fill prescriptions for homeopathic, botanical and nutritional supplements [...]";
so, for instance, inert homeopathy treatments are such? Crazy.
"naturopathic medicine is a complete system of medicine based on the healing power of nature (vis medicatrix naturae). The first principle of naturopathy (the study of naturopathic medicine) is that the body has the ability to heal itself. This innate healing ability can be stimulated and enhanced in many ways [...]";
that there is coded vitalism.
"naturopathic medical school, like allopathic medical school, consists of four years of intensive training in the basic medical sciences (anatomy, physiology, biochemistry), the advanced medical sciences (neurology, cardiology, dermatology, gynecology, etc.), diagnosis (clinical, physical and laboratory) [...]";
and where would we be without science being claimed. But when is university science blatantly science-ejected?

004. ND Amanda Hegnauer's beautiful practice at h2health.org, which is a much more robust site:
004.a. in "Dr. Amanda Hegnauer, N.D." [2019 archived] we're told she's a SCNM ND graduate and:
"Dr. Amanda Hegnauer is a licensed primary care naturopathic doctor in the state of New Hampshire [...] a naturopathic family doctor [...] and was the past executive coordinator for the New Hampshire Association of Naturopathic Doctors. She enjoys practicing as a primary care naturopathic doctor [...] homeopathic medicine is one of her passions and believes it to be a very effective tool in achieving long term health [...]";
it's always amazing to see what naturopathy will tolerate within it: primary care homeopathy and kind falsely stated as science-based. The bogosity, the bogosity...
"Dr. Hegnauer continues to write for and is published in Naturopathic Doctor News and Review [...]":
"read more about naturopathic medicine, here [...]";
which takes us to her page "Naturopathic Medicine" [2019 archived] and in spite of all the homeopathy bogosity, we're told "naturopathic doctors cooperate with all other branches of medical science [...] practice is based on same bio-medical science foundation that conventional practice is" which is completely WRONG as a categorical statement.
"currently she is honored to be part of the State of New Hampshire Naturopathic Licensing Board [...]";
and as I often say, 'why would absurdity have a problem with itself.'
