Naturopathy & nutrition

Naturopathic medicine goes back thousands of years and draws from wisdom of many great civilisations. Indian Ayurveda, Chinese medicine and Greek philosophy (Hippocrates), all promote use of foods as medicine. Intuitive and traditional understanding and use of good nutrition have always been connected to vibrant health and longevity.

Naturopathy believes in our bodys’ self-healing and self-regenerating ability. It encourages finding the underlying cause of ill health, rather than suppressing symptoms. Symptoms are seen as the way our body communicates to us to take action. We can help by nurturing and nourishing, resting or moving, or maybe changing the way we think.

Quality foods, nutrients and avoiding of toxins are considered a powerful way to support healthy physical body, encourage clear mind and balance mood. Today, naturopathic nutrition is an integrative part of science-based functional medicine, and is shown to have impact on reversing poor health, from as little as reducing severity of a single symptom to gaining whole new vitality.
