Naturopathic medicine in three words:  treat  the  cause

Have you ever had a condition, physical, mental or emotional, that is suppressed and comes back with a more virulent nature the next time around? This is because the body has innate intelligence, and it knows if something has not been truly cured, and will therefore find its way to continually express this imbalance. When we get sick we love to blame it on intruder (the bacteria, virus, parasite, etc.), but what about our immune system, why don't we ever blame that? We have {much} control over this part of the equation. We control how busy our lives are, the food we nourish our bodies with {or trash it with}, and the physical activities we engage in. What about our emotional boundaries? If those aren't strong we are leaving room for blurred lines which allows impurities to seep through, leaving us vulnerable to mental, emotional and physical dis-ease. Naturopathy focuses on the prevention of disease through lifestyle maintenance so the body can remain healthy through its own wisdom.
