Align Introduces Dr. Aggie Kotzé, the Cayman Islands’ Only Licensed Naturopathic Doctor

Align is expanding its holistic service offering with the introduction of naturopathy, welcoming Dr. Agnieszka (Aggie) Kotzé, Doctor of Naturopathy and Holistic Medicine, to its team effective 3 October 2025.  

With this addition, Align now offers the most comprehensive range of naturopathic therapies on the island, with Dr. Aggie the Cayman Islands’ only licensed Naturopathic Doctor, according to the Cayman Islands Council for Professions Allied with Medicine.  

Naturopathy is a 150-year-old practice that takes a whole-person approach to health by addressing the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of well-being. Rather than focusing only on symptom management, it seeks to identify and treat the root causes of illness by combining evidence-based science with holistic therapies such as nutrition, herbal medicine, homeopathy, and lifestyle counselling.  

Globally, complementary therapies such as these are increasingly becoming mainstream. Today, naturopathy is practiced in over 98 countries and is used to support a wide range of health concerns, including musculoskeletal pain, cardiovascular and respiratory conditions, autoimmune disorders, digestive health, reproductive health, cancer support and mental well-being. 

Locally, interest in holistic wellness has been steadily rising, with Align seeing significant growth in demand for integrative care among Cayman residents. 

“With more residents seeking integrated, patient-centered care, we’re reaching an inflection point,” said Susan Watling, Medical Director at Align. “Cayman is ready for a new era in wellness and Align has been leading the way all along.”  

Dr. Aggie brings extensive expertise and academic training to the practice, holding a Doctorate in Naturopathy and Holistic Medicine along with additional scientific degrees and certifications. She has also published several books and research papers and is a frequent guest on industry podcasts. Her clinical focus is on promoting longevity and healthy ageing by combining natural therapies with science-based approaches to support vitality, resilience, and graceful ageing. 

“My goal is to empower individuals to age with strength and clarity, while collaborating with other healthcare practitioners to ensure patients receive the most comprehensive and effective care possible,” said Dr. Aggie.  

Based at Align Camana Bay, Dr. Aggie offers a range of naturopathic therapies, including nutritional therapy, detoxification, naturopathic medicine, herbal medicine, energy medicine, homeopathy, hair tissue analysis, lifestyle counselling, and emotional and mental health support.   

“When you combine naturopathy with physiotherapy, chiropractic care, and the many other services we offer at Align, you create a truly holistic model of care that not only addresses immediate symptoms but also supports long-term health, resilience, and overall wellbeing,” said David Dyer, a Director at Align. 

With the addition of naturopathy, Align continues to lead the way in delivering innovative and integrative therapies to the Cayman Islands community. For more information or to book an appointment with Dr. Aggie, visit align.ky.
