Naturopathy
Naturopathy is a system of Natural Medicine that recognizes
the existence of a vital curative force within the
body. It is a method of healing that employs natural
and safe approaches to bring to an individual health
and vitality.
A Naturopath is a health care professional who is
aware of the relation between diet, lifestyle, genetic,
environmental, mental, emotional and spiritual influences
on your health and wellbeing. Naturopaths are trained
in physiology, anatomy, pathology,
clinical diagnosis, herbal medicine, nutrition Medicine,
homeopathy, psychology, Iridology, vibrational medicine,
tactile therapies, etc.
Our Naturopath in her treatment uses
diet, herbs (mainly Brazilian herbs) and nutritional
supplementation. Although, all nutrients essential
to
health should be provided by sound nutrition, there
is a need for nutritional supplementation such as vitamins
and minerals in our 21st Century world
because:
Foods are often picked before they are ripe.
Many food processing techniques destroy or remove nutrients.
Cooking methods further destroy nutrients
Pollution has been higher and more wide spread
Our busy and stressful lifestyle
Genetic factors also may influence the need for certain
nutrients
Our 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 treatment plan is tailored
to each individual needs.
