What is Naturopathic Nutrition?
Naturopathic Nutrition is a holistic therapy which can treat a wide range of health problems with the use of whole and organic foods together with appropriate supplements and natural therapies.
Treating people, not symptoms: each person is treated very much as an individual and each therapy programme is tailored to meet the needs of the individual rather than a set of symptoms. The root cause of a problem is identified and then diet is used therapeutically to reverse the course of disease and thus bring the body back into balance and ultimately good health.
The power of nutrition can be underestimated in today’s world and although many people are now becoming interested in the importance of a healthy diet, most do not realise the true therapeutic value of food and the fact that it can be used to reverse the course of disease to regain optimum health. Naturopathic Nutrition is much more than keeping healthy by eating a healthy diet.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is used as a diagnostic tool to identify imbalances in the body; the client is encouraged to engage in a partnership to agree on an individual treatment programme and work together in supporting the body with the tools to heal itself.
