The Naturopathic approach

Naturopathic treatment and therapy is individually tailored depending on the needs and goals of the client. Protocols can include herbal medicine, nutritional supplementation, dietary and lifestyle counselling, health education and/or massage. Responsibility for improved health is shared equally by the practitioner and their client, using a holistic approach, addressing all aspects of health.

A naturopathic approach suits the person who wants to optimise their health, thereby preventing the onset of disease and facilitating maximum energy and vitality.

It is also favoured by those who prefer a cure without the use of medications, using the body’s innate healing power. However a skilled practitioner can also work effectively in combination with the medications of orthodox medicine.
