Naturopathy takes a holistic approach to wellness.
Naturopathy supports a person to live a healthy lifestyle. The foundations of naturopathy
are based on the importance of a healthy diet, clean fresh water, sunlight, exercise and stress
management.Naturopathy aims to educate the person to look after their own health and the health
of their family, minimising symptoms of any illness, supporting the body’s capacity to heal,
and balancing the body so that illness is less likely to occur in the future.
A range of therapies
are used to support the person. Therapies may include nutritional medicine, diet advice,
herbal medicine, homeopathy, lifestyle advice, and tactile therapies, such as massage, acupressure or
Bowen technique.

A well-trained naturopath will ask you about your diet,
lifestyle, family background and environment, as well as the history of any illnesses or
complaints.
After taking a detailed health history, the naturopath may use other techniques, such as:
-
Kinesiology
-
Iridology
-
Blood Analysis
-
Stool And Urine Analysis
-
Hair Analysis
-
Functional Testing.
Treatment by a naturopath
A naturopath employs a range of non-invasive techniques and these include (but are not limited to):

- Nutrition and dietary advice. A poor diet stops the body from functioning well and a build-up of toxins can lead to a range of illnesses. Whole, fresh and unprocessed foods are recommended
- Herbal medicine – herbs can support the body
- Homeopathy – homeopathic treatments are used to stimulate the body
- Hydrotherapy (water therapy). For instance, the use of hot and cold compresses might be used for certain conditions to influence the flow of blood and body heat
- Physical therapies – such as massage, Bowen, acupressure, bio-puncture or mechanotherapy
- Kinesiology and integrated bio-dynamics (IBD)
