“The greatest medicine of all is to teach people how to not need it”.
So, what exactly is a naturopath?
Naturopathy is a distinct primary health care system that blends modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine. It is based on the healing power of nature and it supports and stimulates the body’s ability to heal itself. Naturopathy is the art and science of disease diagnosis, treatment and prevention using natural therapies including: dietetics, botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, hydrotherapy, homeopathy, fasting, naturopathic manipulation, traditional Chinese medicine/acupuncture, exercise, lifestyle counselling, detoxification and chelation, environmental assessment and adjustment, spiritual healing, health promotion and disease prevention.
What do naturopaths do?
Naturopaths help you get to the root underlying causes of your health issues and guide you on the changes you need to make in order to get well. They may offer advice on dietary changes, lifestyle changes, and guidance on emotional wellbeing. They may be able to give you treatment such as osteopathy, naturopathic manipulation, acupuncture or massage if they are suitably trained. They may also prescribe natural remedies such as herbs, homeopathy or nutritional supplements.

I find the ROOT CAUSE
One thing you must know is Naturopathic health care IS NOT like conventional healthcare. Unlike a GP, I don’t prescribe you a pharmaceutical drug and send you on your way. Naturopathic health care HAS to find the root cause of your condition/s. This means your journey to health can take weeks/months and in some cases years. I am not a quick fix. If you are looking for a quick fix, I am not the practitioner for you.
