Definition

Naturopathy or Nature Cure is an eclectic system of healthcare which promotes the body's self-healing mechanism. By using various tools like herbal medicine, nutrition and lifestyle changes, a Naturopath can design a unique  formulation to treat each individual.

At a time when modern technology, pollution, poor diet and stress play an enormous role in health issues, the profession of the Naturopath is increasing in importance. They can treat both acute and chronic ailments successfully.

Naturopathy Principles

Prevention is preferable to cure.

The underlying cause is identified and not the disease.

The whole person is treated - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

The person is treated, not just the disease.

The individual is unique and each person responds in a different way.

Ill health is a result of the internal disorder of the body.

A Naturopath is an educator, empowering the patient to take a responsibility for their own health.
