What is Natural Therapy?

" What is a Naturopath"?

A Naturopath is a Traditional Medicine Practitioner, who has studied for at least 3 years, including medical science and all the main natural therapy modalities, and needs to be a member of a recognised Natural Medicine Associations

Naturopaths aim to restore optimal health by natural means, free of side-effects, and obviously free of drugs and free of harm of any kind.

Naturopaths are often called "Holistic Practitioners", because they believe that a patient has to be seen and treated as a whole being and not just as separate parts which may present certain symptoms.

Typical modalities which are associated with the term Holistic Natural Therapy :

"Traditional Medicine" modalities such as:

Acupuncture - Herbalist - Homeopath - Naturopath

Holistic Naturopathy

There have always been people who understood that healing will occur naturally in the human body, if it is given what it truly needs, which is:

proper diet, pure water, fresh air, sunlight, exercise, and rest, and a "natural" environment to foster the building of a well balanced immune system.

Drugs are not promoting health, most drugs are maintenance treatment, meaning once you have been diagnosed with a condition you may have to take drugs for the rest of your life. Therefore, Naturopath, next to their original aim to promote promote health and prevent diseases, have also taken on the goal of helping to eliminate, if possible, drug side effects and furthermore develop natural treatments to counteract the harmful effects of living within our modern, but as part of that, toxic and often over-hygienic society.
