One of the central principles of naturopathy is “The Healing Power of Nature” a concept formulated by Hippocrates, a Greek physician who lived 2400 years ago.
Naturopathy is a medical system incorporating a natural philosophy and approach to health and healing. As part of your consultation we will work on a personalised program based on your individual needs and state of health. The aim is to support and stimulate the body’s own ability to heal itself by addressing the root causes of disease, rather than just managing or suppressing the symptoms.
This is achieved through the use of a variety of safe and effective natural therapies. Naturopathic treatments may include a wide range of natural methods and substances such as nutrition, diet, lifestyle advice, tissue salts, flower remedies, herbal medicine, acupuncture and supplementation to support and promote the body’s own healing and regulating mechanisms. Other remedies or modalities may be prescribed such as body work, exercise or relaxation techniques that will help support your body, mind and spirit.
