Naturopathy Treating Without Drugs

A discussion of all things natural is always interesting for me.
Yesterday, I accidentally read old magazines and there are topic about  Naturopathy .
I am interested to share with all the friends.

Naturopathy is also called natural treatments, which use the formula "back to Nature" for treatment.
There are 3 stages of naturopathy, that first diagnose the condition of the patient's body with techniques such as biopsies. Second, patients in detoxification by means of colon cleansing, fasting, massage to cleanse the skin, bath and exercise. Third, improve the system of the body such consumption herbs and nutrients.

Terminology naturopathy, etymologically derived from the word naturo or nature and path or pathway. Naturopathy is a form of medical science, which in its management by improving the body's metabolic system, known as homeostasis of the human body. Which became a principle in naturopathy, according to Dr. Donny Hosea (Dr Naturopathy) of clinic Profit, is seeing the patient completely and thoroughly. When people suffer from certain diseases such as dizziness, headache medicine is not necessarily given. The workings of  naturopathy is looking for causes and  see other possibilities that could be due to psychological pressure.
Then provide a method for the body to heal itself. This is different from conventional physicians with a naturopathic doctor.

Naturopathic medicine has existed since 40-50 years ago. Along with the emergence of problems in the handling of the disease by conventional medicine. Conventional medicine has indeed been growing rapidly with the diagnosis and treatment techniques are accurate and modern. However the rate of increase modernity and accuracy of modern technology and medical science, does not make the world society be more healthy , which occurred on the contrary, the level of disease remains high. Rene DUBOS, a Professor Rockfeler University, Newyork, United States warned the US society with the use of advanced medicinal drugs.

Since the beginning of its development, naturopathic medicine is built through six basic principles drawn from the philosophy of traditional medicine systems, with ayurveda from India, China to Traditional Chinese Medicine, and from the Greek Hippocratic. Then combined with modern medicine.

These six principles are:

1. The healing power lies in the system of the body naturally restore his health.
2. Naturopathic practitioners should identify the cause of the disease, instead of the effect. Maintain a good relationship with the patient, so that a naturopathic can determine the cause of the illness. 
3. Improving patient trust the methods given and followed. Thus, it will help speed up the healing process.
4. Viewed as a whole to the patient. The human body is not a single system but related, both in terms of physical, mental, emotional factors, to determine the cause of the illness.
5. Doctors like a teacher. Good relations with patients having value heal.
6. Prevention is the best cure. Naturopathy is a prevention specialist doctors.

"Not only that, In the US treatment using the spiritual aspect has been incorporated into the concept of health," said the graduate of California American Naturopathic doctor's.
The formation of the American Holistic Medical Association in 1978 signaled a recognition that comprehensive treatment of the human body functions and systems to empower individuals holistically, whether physical, spiritual, and spiritual.

So for those of you who are interested, treatment with naturopathic way this can be used as a solution for handling your health.
