Why You Should Consider Natural Therapies

You, or perhaps your family and friends, maybe sceptical that natural therapies could be powerful enough to effectively treat all kinds of diseases.

The reasons are multifold:

• Natural modalities are effective medicine. As studies have shown, they stimulate the body’s immune, endocrine, and nervous systems, among other things, and provoke a powerful healing effect.

• While pharmaceuticals are often designed to target a particular deficiency or excess, natural therapies have a broad healing impact. They can address the underlying causes of health problems. Rather than masking or correcting symptoms, they correct the root imbalance that led to the symptoms in the first place.

• Natural therapies are wonderfully restorative. They support patients not just physically but emotionally. Illness, whether acute or long-term, including addiction, is hard on the psyche, and these therapies have been proven to soothe the nerves and brighten a patient’s outlook simply by their balancing and normalizing effects.

• Natural therapies have few, if any, negative side effects, and the remedies are generally less toxic and more cost-effective than prescription drugs. Acupuncture, for example, is an excellent alternative to pharmacological treatment for pain, with little or no side effects.

• Natural therapies are not addictive unlike Western medications to be used.
