Naturopathy, meaning "Nature
Cure", is more than a system of health care, it is both a way of life and
a concept of healing employing various natural means of treating symptoms
and the root causes of symptoms. There is no doubt that the Naturopathic
principles are a sound prescription for creating health. Medical
literature is now full of research confirming the importance of diet and
lifestyle to our general health and many studies are now relating specific
foods and lifestyle practices to specific diseases.

involving pure water, clean air, wholesome food,

substances, body ecology, effective management of

lead to a balanced living concept.
