Complementary Alternative Medicine: What is Naturopathy?
Naturopathic clinics embody a paradigm shift in the practice of medicine. I realize "paradigm shift" is the latest buzz word and gets thrown around alot, often without warrant. But, let"s look a little closer at this statement and I think you will come to agree ...
Imagine health care that treats you like a whole person and not simply the disease you possess.
Imagine health care that focuses on discovering the root causes of disease and not simply the suppression of symptoms.
Imagine a doctor who takes the time to truly listen to your story and doesn"t immediately write you a prescription.
No need to imagine. Naturopathy provides that system of health care.
You can feel better.
You"re tired. You hurt. Maybe it"s a headache. Maybe it"s your arthritis. Maybe it"s a gripping anxiety that makes you want nothing more than to hide under your bed.
Whatever it is, you are tired of feeling this way. You"re health concerns are interfering with your daily life, stopping you from living fully. You do not want to choose between being on medications for the rest of your life or suffering with this nagging health problem. You know you can"t keep living this way but you don"t know how to break the cycle.
Instead, you want to live a life that is full of potential, one where you are full of energy, in which your body is a symbol of vitality.
If you are fed up with not being able to enjoy the quality of life that you deserve, then naturopathic medicine may be able to help you.
A Health-Based Approach
Naturopathic Medicine is a distinct primary health care system that blends modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine.
Naturopathic medicine is the art and science of disease diagnosis, treatment and prevention using natural therapies including, botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, hydrotherapy, homeopathy, Asian medicine / acupuncture, and lifestyle counseling.
Holistic care places the focus on health, rather than disease. It treats the whole, unique person rather than simply the symptoms the person presents with.
To the uninformed, naturopathic medicine, as well as the entire concept of natural medicine, appears to be a fad that will soon pass away. To the informed, however, it is quite clear that naturopathic medicine is at the forefront of the future.
