🌼Yellow Spring Flowers are my all time favourite reminder of the main naturopathic principle:
“Vis Medicatrix Naturae”
The latin term meaning: the healing power of nature, is in each one of us.
My team at Healing Foundation’s Naturopathic Clinic honours these fundamental principles of natural approaches to dis-ease:
• The healing power of nature (vis medicatrix naturae)
Each person has the inner capacity to heal from illness and disease.
• Identify and treat the causes (tolle causam)
Investigate and remove the underlying causes of a person’s disease rather than simply suppressing symptoms.
• First do no harm (Primum non nocere)
Use natural treatment methods that are safe and effective to support and augment the body’s ability to heal, while minimizing harmful side effects.
• Doctor as teacher (Docere)
Spend an adequate amount of time with every patient and explain the details of their illness in terms they can understand.
• Treat the whole person (Tolle totum)
Account for the complex interaction of physical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual and environmental factors that affect the health of patients.
• Prevention (Praevenic)
Offer encouragement and emphasize disease prevention.
