A Naturopath is a healthcare practitioner who uses a holistic approach to promote natural healing and wellness, using natural methods and substances such as herbal medicine, nutrition, lifestyle counselling, iridology, physical therapies and pathology to investigate, support and promote the body's own healing and regulating mechanisms. Advice on diet and lifestyle is part of a consultation.
Naturopathy is a health oriented medicine which emphasises the maintenance of health, and prevention of disease.
Naturopaths aim to address the root cause of health issues rather than just treating symptoms. Treating the source of the imbalance produces the results.
A qualified Naturopath has undertaken extensive studies in the sciences (anatomy and physiology, pathology, chemistry and biochemistry) as well as herbal medicine, nutrition, counselling, iridology, homoeopathy and much more. A qualified Naturopath studies a Bachelors degree for at least 4 years full time.
A detailed health review is undertaken and pathology referral can be provided (only where necessary) to have pathology done at QML.
A treatment plan is written up and advice is given for diet and lifestyle adjustments.
Nutrition has always been at the cornerstone of Naturopathic medicine and involves the use of foods and sometimes nutritional supplements to influence health and the disease process. We can only be truly healthy if we eat a nutrient rich diet, rather than the overly processed and nutrient poor diet alot of us can 'get by' on but will impact our health at some point.
