Naturopathy is based on the healing power of nature, with the belief that all healing energies lie within the human body itself. Every individual carries a natural healing force—embracing both the immune system and the mind—that is responsible for maintaining health and restoring wellness. Illness occurs when we go against the laws of nature, and healing begins when the body expels accumulated toxins. Among the most effective natural methods of recovery is fasting, often described as nature’s way to heal. Combined with complete rest, fasting provides the body with the ideal condition to purify, repair, and rejuvenate.
In Naturopathy, therapies are always applied in the gentlest, least invasive, and most effective manner possible. The core principle is to diagnose and treat the root cause, rather than simply suppressing symptoms. To achieve this, Naturopathic medicine integrates a wide range of therapeutic approaches, including:
Naturopathic treatments not only help in preventing chronic illnesses but also in managing and restoring health in existing conditions. At its foundation, Naturopathy emphasizes that many ailments are directly linked to what you eat and what you avoid, making diet and lifestyle the first steps toward lasting wellness.
Main Principles of Naturopathy
- One Cause, One Cure
- Acute Diseases as Natural Healing
- Nature as the Greatest Healer
- Treating the Person, Not the Disease
- Holistic Approach
- Food is Medicine
With the exception of accidents and environmental factors, the root cause of all diseases is the accumulation of morbid matter (toxins) in the body. True treatment lies in helping the body eliminate these toxins.
Acute diseases are the body’s own efforts to cleanse and heal itself. They should be seen as allies rather than enemies. Chronic diseases, on the other hand, often result from wrong treatments and the suppression of acute conditions.
The body has an inherent ability to protect itself from illness and to restore health when it is disturbed.
Naturopathy focuses on the individual as a whole rather than targeting a single symptom or condition.
The body is treated as an integrated system, not as separate organs. Healing is aimed at restoring balance across the entire being—body, mind, and lifestyle.
Naturopathy does not rely on drugs or chemicals. Instead, it emphasizes the principle that “Food is Medicine”, making diet and nutrition central to both prevention and cure.
