Naturopathy

Ginette Pelletier
Naturopathy recognizes that a patient's mental, emotional and physical states must all be considered during a treatment for there to be any effect. It is a system of medicine using natural substances and nutrition as its resources.
Its foundation is the philosophy of "the healing power of nature", meaning that within us all lays a healing energy (our immune system) that heals and maintains our health. The belief is that the body will heal itself and recover from illness if it is in a healthy environment. The naturopath supports this healing system by creating a healthy environment for the body to heal itself.
Finally, the naturopath seeks to treat the cause of the illness, and not simply the manifestations or symptoms. This process leads to a much healthier and efficient form of healing.
