In naturopathy,
emphasis is placed on the intrinsic ability of the body
to heal and maintain itself. Naturopathy uses natural
remedies like herbs and foods rather than surgery and
harmful drugs. Naturopathic Medicine/Naturopathy is a
school of medical philosophy and practice that seeks to
improve health and treat disease chiefly by assisting
the body's innate capacity to recover from illness and
injury. Naturopathic practice may include a wide range
of various modalities including Manual Therapy,
Hydrotherapy, Herbalism, Acupuncture, Counseling,
Environmental Medicine, Aromatherapy, Nutritional
Counseling, Homeopathy, and so on.
Naturopathy
treatment has its origins in India along with Ayurveda,
but is today practiced in many countries around the
world in one form or another, where it is subject to
different standards of regulation and levels of
acceptance. Our highly qualified Naturopathic
practitioners prefer not to use invasive surgery or most
synthetic drugs, preferring "natural" remedies, for
instance, relatively unprocessed or whole medications
such as herbs and foods. Diagnostic tests such as
imaging and blood tests are done before deciding upon
the full course of treatment. Our Naturopathic
practitioners also use prescription medications and
surgery when necessary and refer with other medical
practitioners, when needed. |
