Naturopathy: A brief history
Naturopathy has existed in various forms for thousands of years. Using plants as medicine has been practiced since the dawn of time. These days however, the techniques used to extract the healing parts of plants has come a very long way; also vastly improving their ability to promote health in our body.The age-old saying, “You are what you eat” is a core focus of Naturopathy. Using food as medicine—whilst harnessing all that science has taught us over the years— places Naturopaths at the forefront of natural health and healing.
