Naturopathy is founded on a ‘Nature cure’ or ‘Natural’ philosophy of
healing. It is holistic in its
approach to each person, respecting that health integrates your physical,
mental and emotional state, and it supports your body’s inherent desire to
recover to full health. We know that everything you eat, drink, breath, feel
and do has an impact on your physiology. Naturopathy aims to facilitate your
journey away from disease towards optimum health on all those levels.
This approach mirrors what dedicated exercise physiologists do – they
are searching for ways to aid recovery and improve wellbeing that are beyond
just ‘exercising’. Naturopathy can support correct physiology through a number
of avenues.
Some include:
Some include:
·
Identification & reduction of
inflammatory triggers
(think dietary assessment and adjustment, toxin and allergy screening, body
composition testing, essential fatty acid testing)
·
Enhancement of anti-inflammatory pathways (through dietary adjustment and nutritional
& herbal supplementation such as fish oil and turmeric extract)
·
Support of the body’s own repair response (minerals, antioxidant nutrients, essential
fatty acids, immune & adrenal herbal tonics are useful especially for long
term conditions)
·
Facilitation of improved organ function (for example - improving digestion enhances
nutritional status, improving blood
sugar regulation reduces diabetes risk,
improving stress response enhances
fertility in both sexes, improving sleep quality boosts energy & assists weight loss)… and the list goes on!
Through the use of traditional & modern assessment techniques, herbal
& nutritional medicine, and a good dose of common sense, Naturopathy is a
solid practice of ‘Natural Medicine’ with the aim of achieving full health
rather than just treating disease.
