Naturopathy Tours and Nature Cure India
Naturopathy has been practiced in India for centuries. The practice of using plant extracts to detoxify and heal the body, to increase resistance to infection and to ensure a long and healthy life is has been known to Indians since time immemorial.
Modern medical techniques have used empirical research methods to verify the efficacy of nature cure in the treatment of a range of conditions.
The practice of Nature cure in India is based on the following three principles:
· Accumulation of morbid matter
· Abnormal composition of blood and lymph
· Lowered vitality
Nature Cure believes that all the diseases arise due to accumulation of morbid matter in the body and if this can be removed, it will provide cure or relief. It also believes that the human body possesses inherent powers of self-healing. The fundamental difference between Nature Cure and other systems is that its theory and practice are based on a holistic view point. Nature Cure does not believe in the specific cause of disease and its specific treatment but takes into account the totality of factors responsible for diseases such as one's living habits, work routine, sleeping habits, relaxation, daily stresses, etc. It also considers the environmental factors of an individual, which can disturb the normal functioning of the body and lead it into a morbid, weak and toxic state.
Treatment in Naturopathy primarily involves correcting all the negative factors involved and allowing the body to recover on its own. A Nature Cure physician helps in Nature's effort to overcome disease by applying correct natural elements and controlling the natural forces to work within safe limits. The five main modalities of treatment are air, water, heat, mud and space. Plant extracts and essential oils are also used in Naturopathy treatment. Diet and exercise may be prescribed and the individuals outlook on life is sought to be directed towards living a positive life in harmony with natural forces.
Naturopathy and Nature Cure centres are present in all large cites of India.
