What is Naturopathy?

Basically Naturopathy is a holistic approach to health and wellness, based on the principle that the body has an innate ability to heal itself. Encompassing a variety of treatment methods, Naturopathy treats the person as a whole with the aim to eliminate the cause of the diss-ease, rather than just treat the affected area.

James has been involved with natural therapies for over 25 years, and has treated a vast range of ailments. His passion is to create natural skin care products and to educate his customers of the benefits of living a more natural lifestyle.

But does it work?

Yes! Scientific evidence has proven herbal remedies to be effective. However, it’s important to note a Naturopath isn’t a doctor. As with any health care profession, becoming a qualified Naturopath takes years of dedicated study. They will be able to educate and provide advice, they will not be able to diagnose health conditions and will not intervene with a Doctor’s advice or pharmaceutical prescriptions. They will be able to develop a treatment plan to compliment your Doctor’s advice, but ultimately the outcome significantly depends on the effort the client is willing to contribute.

The importance of your health is beyond measure, knowing how to prevent illness with simple changes to your lifestyle and everyday routine is priceless. Consistency, dedication and patience is key. It takes a long time to break old habits and build new ones in their place but with the support and guidance of a qualified Naturopath, optimum health and wellbeing is within the reach of every body.
