The Holistic Practitioner
What is Naturopathy and what it can do for you?
Naturopathy is the focus of a holistic natural health practitioner, where alternative natural medicines & complementary natural therapies are tailored to treat an individual patient, incorporating all aspects of the living body into a state of health, balance & alignment.
In days gone by, a naturopath was a person who formulated and dispensed medicines and known as an Apothecary. The Apothecary usually had a shop where people came to receive treatment for ailments.
A Naturopath has extensive knowledge of the body and the effect that natural medicine has upon it. Herbal Medicine is the original medicine. It’s been used throughout the ages and is documented as far back as the Sumerians in 2112BCE.
Herbal Medicine & Naturopathy is a cornerstone of modern medicine today. An extensive array of naturally grown herbs from around the world have undergone thorough controlled, scientific studies and trials in recent decades, performed and documented to prove evidence-based effectiveness.
The potency and perfection of certain specific herbs, show their effectiveness in curing many conditions and disorders, cannot be synthetically mimicked or substituted by the pharmaceutical companies – which has become big business in recent years.
Herbalism, Naturopathy & Natural Remedies have a well-deserved & respected place in the healing profession. When compared to synthetic chemical allopathic drugs, Natural Medicine offers attractive benefits, such as little to no side effects or addictions, however these complementary & alternate medicines can have effect on other drugs, and this is where the Naturopath or Herbalist will cross reference existing medications and allow for an increase, decrease or contraindication before prescribing a treatment plan.
Should you or someone you know suffer from a condition such as insomnia, anxiety, stress, depression, hormone imbalance, infertility, skin disorders, fatigue, diabetes, immune issues, or other imbalance, then a call to Ginkgo Clinic in Coffs Harbour could be a step towards the best health imaginable.
