A proclamation coming out of Council Chambers last night.

The week of May 8th to 14th has been declared as "Naturopathic Medicine Week" in Saskatchewan.

Dr. Leshia Ferguson was on hand from the Saskatchewan Association of Naturopathic Practitioners (SANP) to discuss her field of work.

The SANP aims to help individuals enjoy the health benefits of highly qualified, leading edge naturopathic medicine in Saskatchewan.

Ferguson, who also works at Healing Roots Naturopathic Clinic in Swift Current, says they do so by working with the government and stakeholders in the public interest and through a legislated regulatory mandate provided by the Government of Saskatchewan.

No events are on the agenda in the southwest during the week.
