Nutritional Therapy
More than two thousand years ago, Hippocrates proclaimed: Let food be thy medicine, and let medicine be thy food. Still eminently sound advice today - literally, you are what you eat!
Nutritional therapy uses foods and dietary mangagement as powerful therapeutic tools, based on scientific research and evidence. This discipline is grounded in naturopathic principles, preventing disease, healing, and enhancing health through the belief that the body has an inherent ability to heal itself when given appropriate nutrition.
Unsuitable dietary choices, excessive stress, lack of exercise, and overindulgence in stimulants (such as alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine), all contribute to low energy, compromised immunity, and impaired mental functioning. Nutritional therapy offers a balanced, holistic approach to the prevention, diagnosis and management of disease, seeking and addressing the root cause of the problem rather than treating symptoms.
Above all, you are seen as a unique individual, with requirements particular to your own biochemistry, and a nutritional programme will be custom-tailored to meet your specific needs... Let's not forget that fresh, wholesome food, lovingly prepared, is one of life's greatest pleasures!
