Naturopathy is at the fore of modern day medicine and traditionally has the longest history of any healing therapy. It examines the body holistically and treats each client separately. Naturopathy combines and unites the latest theories from physiology, biochemistry alongside herbal, nutritional and homeopathic medicines and techniques, which supports the body into joining in harmony and balance, encouraging the healing of disease and re establishing good health and wellbeing.
Naturopathic physicians apply the six fundamental guiding principles of naturopathic medicine:
‘The healing power of nature’, i.e. the belief in the body’s ability to heal.
‘Identify and treat the cause’, i.e. examining the root cause beyond the symptoms.
‘First, do no harm’, i.e. utilize the most natural and least invasive, toxic therapies.
‘Treat the whole person’, i.e. view the body as a totality of body, mind and spirit.
‘The physician as teacher’, i.e. educate clients to achieve, restore and maintain health.
‘Prevention, the best cure’, i.e. focus on holistic health and disease prevention.
