Naturopathy (http://www.naturopathy.ie/) subscribes to the basic understanding that the body has the capacity to heal itself, if given the right conditions. My role as a Naturopath is to empower you to take responsibility for your own health.

Basically, the roots of Naturopathy, or 'Nature Cure' go back thousands of years and draw on the healing wisdom from all over the world including Ayurveda (India) Chinese Traditional Medicine/Taoism (China) and Hippocrates (Greece).  It is based on seven principles which can be briefly described as:

First, do no harm (primum no nocere)
Nature has healing powers (vis medicatrix naturae)
Identify and treat the cause (tolle causam)
Treat the whole person
The physician is a teacher
Prevention is the best cure
Establish health and wellness

My focus is on helping you to :

• Identify the habits which have created the dis-ease situation within your body
• Create new habits
• Instigate a revised diet and lifestyle
