The Nature of Nature Cure
Nature Cure is a modern nature based Medical science that works
to
improve your digestion and circulation
strengthen your immune system
and help you decrease your stress and increase your
energy
It does this by using some methods from cutting edge science
and technology and some from the ancient past - it gives us the
best from "Professor's medicine" and the best from "Grandma's
medicine".
Nature Cure is like gardening
There are two types of gardeners. There is the gardener who
plants seeds and seedlings unsuited to the soil of that garden,
who dashes about spraying with chemicals, putting plants in
formal settings in straight lines, often frustrated that the
garden is not doing what he wants. And there is the gardener who
cultivates and feeds the soil, uses plants suited to that soil,
nourishes the plants, watches them with patience and with
curiosity and is often delighted with what the garden reveals to
her.
The first type of gardener is like a standard Family Physician
or Doctor writing prescriptions for chemical medicines that will
apply "force" to the body, suppressing symptoms, preventing some
parts of the metabolism working and often producing serious
damage-side effects. The second type of gardener is like a
Nature Cure Practitioner using diet and dietary supplements, to
nourish a patient and using hydrotherapy and Physical therapy
and Psychological therapy to support a patient and help
recovery. The Naturopath watches the patient with patience and
curiosity and is often delighted with what the patient achieves
Nature Cure is like music
An Orchestra needs a conductor. The conductor does not play or
sing. Apparently they just stand at the front and wave their
arms about. In reality it is the understanding of the conductor
that releases the music. Without the apparently nonsensical
waving there is no music.
In Nature Cure we do not "cure the patient" - we plan the cure,
conduct it and do all we can to help. The Naturopath
orchestrates the healing process
Nature Cure is like love.
Love is defined as "devoted attachment and kindness" . In a
loving relationship there is respect and support. In Nature Cure
we respect the body's ability to follow its own intelligent
processes and priorities. We support the healing process with
time and energy. The body has amazing innate intelligence and
healing ability- when you realise that, you cannot help
respecting it and supporting it.
Let us give the last word on Nature Cure to one of the greatest
thinkers of all time, Socrates: "..... you have heard eminent
physicians say to a patient who comes to them with bad eyes,
that they cannot cure his eyes by themselves, but if his eyes
are to be cured, his head must be treated: and then again they
say that to think of curing the head alone, and not the rest of
the body also, is the height of folly. And arguing in this way
they apply their methods to the whole body, and try to treat and
heal the whole and the part together. And this is the reason why
the cure of many diseases is unknown to the physicians of
Hellas, because they are ignorant of the whole, which ought to
be studied also; for the part can never be well unless the whole
is well." Taken from a letter written by Socrates to Plato 400
BC !
