Therapy Introduction
Naturopathic medicine is a separate and distinct form of
medicine, having its own philosophy and methods of treatment.
It is based on the unalterable principle that 'Only Nature
Heals' and it is within the individual ability to restore
health.
The principles of Naturopathy are:-
- Given the appropriate opportunity, nature will heal;
- Correct food is the only medicine that the body requires;
- Dis-ease is an attempt to heal by elimination;
- All Dis-ease has the same common causation.
In practice Naturopathy recognises that the stress of the twenty-first
century living degrades the life force and various factor affect the
body's ability to restore maximum health. These include chemical imbalance,
structural or mechanical distortions and psychological stress. In
order to treat the patient successfully, the Naturopath will always
treat the patient as a whole and never attempt to merely alleviate
the symptoms.
All Naturpaths are registered with the General
Council & Register of Naturopaths.
