Naturopathy is based on ancient doctrines of healing and the basis of these is Vis Medicatrix Naturae, the healing power of Nature. Naturopathy is based on restoring, stimulating and balancing the inherent vital force to facilitate healing. The Naturopathic practitioner identifies and removes obstacles to restore optimal health and vitality by supporting bodily systems and elimination pathways.
Primum non nocere means ‘do no harm’, this is the fundamental principle of Naturopathic medicine – to gently support the body and initiate the vital force within the body to heal itself. Each individual sign, symptom or condition that your body expresses indicates an underlying insufficiency or causative factor. This factor is identified and supported to facilitate the vital force to heal the body.
Finally, the Naturopathic Practitioner treats the individual as a whole and addresses mind, body, emotional, environmental, genetic and spiritual issues. Harmony arises from a balanced perspective in all areas and health springs forth from a body that is in complete balance.
The Naturopathic Practitioner takes into account the fact that health is a multi-factorial issue and hence all levels are addressed. Each individual is assessed to ensure a specific health and treatment plan is tailored to your needs.
When you choose a Naturopathic approach you receive a natural and gentle approach to health care with lasting results to all aspects of the individual.
