We are all aware that conventional medicine, when used appropriately, is absolutely essential to our health. After all, where would we be today without antibiotics and surgery? However, there is little argument that many modern medicines are misused and overused to the extent that they are actually making people unwell ("Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine", Murray & Pizzorno). It is for this reason that you are now seeing a shift in society's approach to health; a more integrated approach with allopathic (conventional) medicine and natural medicine working side by side, and each aptly used where suitable.

In natural medicine, you are viewed as an individual in your entirety - comprised of a complex set of physical, spiritual, emotional and psychological factors, which all impact on the condition of your health. Together, these elements, when brought into a state of balance, will enable you to thrive and flourish. Natural Therapists enforce this process by educating, motivating and empowering you to assume responsibility for your own well being through the development of a healthy lifestyle to prevent any imbalances (illness) from occurring. This includes encouraging a healthy attitude to life, a nutrient-rich diet, a lifestyle free from stress and some regular form of exercise. Techniques used vary from acupuncture, massage, and yoga to biofeedback, herbs and meditation.
