Holistic Medicine: A Different Approach

A lot of people are unaware that many natural remedies are as powerful and as valid as conventional medicine. Most of this knowledge has unfortunately been suppressed for centuries.

As a naturopath, I’ve also realized that there is not a single pill, whether synthetic or natural, that can match human potential. These are just tools that we use to improve the outcome of a disease.

It takes courage, willpower, and patience to face your health problems. When you take the time to talk about your health issues, you are taking the first and most important step toward healing.

In a society mainly focused on over consumption, we have been taught that the more we have, the better off we are. When it comes to managing a disease, it is often the other way around. Letting go of “old habits”that do not serve you anymore might be a better strategy. It is also the key to better health.

Most sickness stems from unhealthy habits, mental conditioning and stress. Learning to rid yourself of certain patterns and move forward is the best gift you can give yourself.

If you wish for a different outcome, you have to change the way you do things. The good news is, it can be done in a fun and joyful way. After all, to be aligned with the highest version of yourself is what your body and soul are longing for…

It is this re-connection with who you truly are that matters. If you can achieve this state of being, all the signs and symptoms that you are experiencing will improve and many may even disappear.

Most patients come to my office with a vague sense that there must be something different that naturopathy can do to treat their illness.

Conventional medicine can suppress the symptoms of a condition. It can also provide temporary relief, but it does not address the root causes of disease.

An illness can stem from many sources (i.e.: stress, poor diet, past emotional trauma, etc.). By looking into the root cause of a disease and treating it from a holistic perspective, you can change the outcome and create the level of health you wish to experience.

In fact, awareness is key to success. By taking the time to discuss your issue and making small, significant changes in your life, you tap into your innate ability to heal.

When you finally have total clarity on how to treat your illness, you will eventually get results.

It is a journey worth taking, as there is immense reward in being able to break free from a health condition that you have been experiencing for years. Knowing that you have the power to change if you wish to is reassuring. We often forget that our natural state is to be well and healthy.

See yourself in one month or six months from now. Where would you like to be? Create a vision of your ideal health and give yourself permission to remove unhealthy conditions that do not serve you anymore. Treat them as a challenge and see yourself embarking on a journey to better health.

You are the creator of your reality, and you have the power to change. This is what most patients realize when they take a leap of faith and embrace naturopathic medicine on their journey to good health.
