  • Osteopathy - we specialise in Osteopathy in the Cranial Field and in Osteopathic Paediatrics treating people of all ages, from infancy to the elderly. Our osteopathic methods are very gentle, effective and safe. Osteopathy can be used for most conditions as it is a wholistic form of manual natural medicine that treats the patient as a whole not just the symptoms
  
  
  • Naturopathy - is a science and a philosophy that has evolved over many centuries. Hippocrates, the father of medicine said, “we are what we eat, breath and drink”. He also said, “let your food be your medicine and your medicine your food”. Also “prevention is better than cure”. Naturopathy is based on the premise that the body has the inherent ability to heal itself and that all living things are an extension of nature and therefore conform to natural laws, “laws not framed by the human hand”! Traditionally, Naturopathic treatments were based on 5 natural methods. Cleansing or building foods/diets, clean water, clean air, relaxation/breathing and exercise to stimulate vitality. From these modalities came fasting, mono-diets, juice therapy, hydrotherapy, heat therapy in many forms, massage and so forth. Today however, naturopathy is very different in its approach. Our soil and air have been denatured by modern technology and war, the processing of food has devitalitised the raw materials given to us by nature and chemicals added to our food are often very harmful; naturopathy has had to evolve to deal with this artificial environment that we have created; so the birth of supplements and nutritional products to supplement our diets and to cleanse us from the chemicals in our soil, water and air has become essential.
  
  • Nutrition - Proper nutrition implies receiving adequate whole foods and supplements to convey to the body the nutrients required for optimal health. It also  means that the nutrient intake has to be utilised and absorbed into the body in adequate balance. Good nutrition is essential for normal organ development and functioning, for normal reproduction, growth, proper immune function, to fight disease and for the body’s ability to repair damage or injury to cells and tissues.
  
  • Western Herbalism - Herbal medicine is the first medicine. From the time man walked on earth he used herbs to help heal his wounds, to add to his food, to heal his sickness. A lot of what we call herbs is also foods and we can see this especially in our past traditions. Like hawthorn berries, rich red and used for the blood and heart, bilberries, purple like the purple pigment in our eyes used to improve night vision, garlic, basil, onions, tomatoes, spices, and so forth are in the form of food and medicine. “Let your food be your medicine”. Today herbal medicine has become a healthy medley of tradition and science. With the science available today, the herbs can be analysed for their active constituents and be better understood as to why they work. However, modern herbalists still believe that it is safer and more effective in the long run to give medicines in their natural form instead of in their isolated and artificial form like drugs. Herbal medicine also looks at the patient as a whole and prescribes herbs in combinations or alone related to the patient’s needs not just for the patient’s ailment. They treat people not the names of disease.
  
  • Bach Flower Remedies - Dr. Edward Bach discovered the Bach Flower Remedies in the 1930’s. Dr Bach, a very successful medical practitioner and researcher, gave up his lucrative practice to look into nature’s laboratory for cures for the ills of mankind, which he believed stemmed from disharmonies between heart and spirit. He felt that our mental states, emotions and attitudes open the path to the production of illness, and that the bodily ills are just symptoms. His 38 remedies can be used for cases of fear, uncertainty, loss of interest in life, loneliness, oversensitivity, despondency/depression, and so forth without any side effects. Another advantage is that the remedies can be taken with any medication without the fear of adverse interactions.
  
  • Homeopathy (alternatively spelled homoeopathy) - is based on the principle of “like cures like”. The efficacy and effectiveness of homeopathic medicines has been demonstrated by more than 250 years of successful use by physicians worldwide. Homeopathy cures curable conditions and palliates incurable conditions. Homeopathy is used in both acute and chronic diseases, to stimulate the defence mechanism and balance the constitution of patients. It is safe to use in neonates, infants, children, unconscious patients, during pregnancy and in animals. Homeopathic medicines are administered in minute doses and do not have side-effects. The homeopathic remedy is chosen because it matches as closely as possible the totality of the patient’s symptoms.
