Naturopathy
Naturopathy uses natural methods such as diet, essential oils, phytotherapy (medicinal plants), natural food supplements, or detoxification to help the patient achieve an optimal lifestyle.
It is a holistic approach that considers the body as a whole and leads it to re-establish its self-healing capacities and to optimise its vitality.
The therapist seeks to rebalance rather than focus on relieving a symptom, as symptoms often reflect a global imbalance. Naturopathy can be used alone or as a complement to allopathic recommendations.
