What is Naturopathy?
Naturopathy is a holistic health system that focuses on healing through natural means. It is based on the belief in the body's ability to heal itself. Instead of treating symptoms, naturopathy seeks to identify the root causes of illness. This approach aims to restore the body's natural balance by combining diet, herbal remedies, lifestyle changes, and other natural methods.
Naturopathy is often seen as complementary to modern medicine and can be effective for a wide range of health concerns. Its goals include managing chronic diseases, strengthening the immune system, stress management, and improving overall health. Naturopathic treatments are tailored to each individual and consider their unique needs.
