Naturopath - Comprehensive Health Care
What is Naturopathy?
Naturopathy and conventional medicine are both valuable systems that excel at different aspects of patient care . Conventional medicine is crucial in most emergency situations, and is effective at controlling the body’s physiology when necessary. Naturopathy is the best approach to prevention because it involves a wellness-oriented diet, lifestyle change and supplements that support the body.
Naturopathy is often also the best first step in dealing with chronic illnesses, such as arthritis or eczema, because these conditions often improve when diet, lifestyle and nutrient deficiencies are addressed.
Additionally, Naturopathy is a great choice for non-emergency acute illnesses, such as colds and flus, because naturopathic medicine modalities effectively support the body’s immune system.
Rooted in western medicine, Naturopathy delivers effective, non-invasive and natural treatments that reflect these six essential principles:
The Healing Power of Nature
Trust in the body’s inherent wisdom to heal itself.
Identify and Treat the Causes
Look beyond the symptoms to the underlying cause.
First Do No Harm
Utilise the most natural, least invasive and least toxic therapies.
Doctor as Teacher
Educate patients in the steps to achieving and maintaining health.
Treat the Whole Person
View the body as an integrated whole in all of its physical and spiritual dimensions.
Prevention
Focus on overall health, wellness and disease prevention.
