naturopathy & homeopathy
naturopathy & homeopathy briefly explained
A naturopath is a therapist trained in the art of natural medicine, which is often termed alternative medicine or natural therapy. Naturopaths seek to address the underlying cause of disease. Symptoms are viewed as an expression of the body’s attempt to heal itself, while the causes can spring from the physical, mental-emotional and spiritual levels
The term naturopathy or “nature cure” describes a philosophy and a method of healing that employs various natural means to restore balance and encourage an individual to achieve their optimum level of health. These include herbal medicine, flower essences, homeopathy, diet and nutrition, mineral and vitamin therapy along with attitudinal and lifestyle approaches. Iridology and tongue diagnosis along with hydrotherapy and other physical therapies can be incorporated.
Homeopathy is one of the key natural methods of healing incorporated in this clinic. It is viewed as safe, effective and inexpensive by the World Health Organisation ; which notes that it is the most used system of natural medicine in the world after traditional Chinese medicine.
From a homeopathic perspective, all your complaints are a reflection of you as a whole. For instance a patient may present with hayfever, constipation and nervousness with public speaking. These are all manifestations of an inner disturbance and present a pattern of symptoms which is addressed. A thorough knowledge of similar patterns in homeopathic medicines allows the therapist to select the appropriate remedy and begin holistic treatment.
The other aspect of the homeopathic approach is about first aid -specific therapeutic treatment of acute or sub-acute conditions. Conditions such as colds, influenza, tonsillitis, headaches, ear infections and skin infections can be promptly and effectively treated.
