As the owner of the Bio Wellness Center in Baton Rouge, Dr. Arthur Copes leads a naturopathic practice that delivers treatment to patients with a range of chronic health issues. The naturopathic approach Dr. Arthur Copes emphasizes is also known as holistic care and encompasses a full range of body functions involving both the mind and the gut.

In addition to physical symptoms, naturopathic physicians take a close look at the emotional, lifestyle, and environmental elements of well-being. Root causes are sought, rather than symptoms. Naturopathic treatments emphasize natural and non-invasive therapies such as supplements, hydrotherapy, homeopathy, Genetic support, and bio-identical hormones. This supports healing at cellular, organ, and DNA levels, and is distinct from traditional Western (or allopathic) medical practices, which have more of a focus on pain management and the suppression of symptoms.

Seeking to restore disrupted metabolic processes, the naturopathic approach is one that complements, rather than competes with, allopathic medicine. Practitioners view it as a vital branch in the continuum of health care that can present solutions when other approaches have failed.
