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)
counselling techniques – emotional problems and stress can interfere with the healing process. Counselling techniques can include stress management strategies and life coaching.
