Philosophy

Your life reflects your beliefs!

You spent a lifetime collecting belief systems and programming your subconscious mind. We can consciously change our beliefs by reading books, through conversations, etc., but if these belief systems are not changed on the subconscious level, our programmed behaviors keep reoccurring. Our subconscious belief systems affect our well-being in every aspect of our life.

A traditional naturopath specializes in wellness—we do not diagnose or treat diseases, but rather recognize the majority of sub-health conditions are the underlying cause of what we call dis-ease brought on by improper diet, unhealthy emotional/physical habits, and environmental factors which cause biological imbalances with a subsequent breakdown in health.

All disease is lack of homeostasis in the body. Disease is nothing more than a manifestation of our bodies trying to correct imbalances. Our bodies communicate with us when there is a problem and we can either respond to these messages or try to suppress the symptoms. Eventually, if the underlying problem has not been addressed, the body will begin to break down structurally. We have an internal balance, and when one of our constitutions gets out of balance, disease can flourish.

Traditional Naturopathy concentrates on identifying destructive aspects of the lifestyle in the early phases, when lifestyle changes can occur to bring long-term benefit. Once corrected, the body automatically begins to correct itself. Think of it like this: You sit on a staple. The doctor diagnoses the pain and prescribes medicines, but the underlying cause, the staple, has not been identified or removed.

The practice of Traditional Naturopathy is not considered medicine and is currently practiced in all 50 states. It’s recognized as a common occupation at the Federal level (U.S. Congress 1928, 1929, 1930, and 30 Federal Court rulings between 1958 and 1978) and as such it is a profession protected under the 14th and 9th Amendments of the U.S. Constitution.
