What is Naturopathy?

Naturopathy encompasses a number of modalities, particularly herbal medicine and nutrition, to help identify and support illnesses and imbalances within the body, whilst adhering to the six naturopathic principles.

Naturopathy offers a holistic approach to health, based on the principle that the body, given all the right love and support, has an innate ability to heal itself.

With a focus on determining the root cause of an imbalance or illness, naturopathy helps to restore optimal health and bring homeostasis (balance) to the body. Naturopathy looks at the individual as a whole, taking in to account all body systems, mental & physical - everything is connected! The range of functional testing offered includes (but is not limited to) blood, urine and stool analysis.

Naturopathy is designed to support the body, helping it to heal naturally, particularly through the use of diet & lifestyle advice, nutritional supplementation and herbal medicine.

Each naturopathic treatment is designed to cater for the individual at focus. We are all different and thus each have a unique naturopathic care plan. Find out more about how Nutmeg Naturopathy can support you.
