Naturopathy is a compilation of a wide variety of natural therapeutics and healing techniques. This natural method of healing is based on the premise that the body contains the innate wisdom and power to heal itself, providing that we enhance rather than hinder that process, and in addition, treating the whole person is more desirable than simply alleviating the symptoms of disease.
Naturopaths encourage the individual to take responsibility for their own healing process. They will encourage them to adjust their lifestyle and diet, boost them with herb and nutritional supplements, recommend exercise and teach them how to maintain the body’s natural state of balance.


Massage/Swedish Massage can be defined as being the systematic manipulation of the soft tissues of the body to promote health and healing.

Benefits of massage are both physical and psycological. Physically it facilitates the circulation of blood and lymph and the removal of waste products. It also mobilizes soft tissues and nourishes and stimulates the skin. The benefits of massage in reduction of swelling in certain types of oedema are profound. Remedial massage is an effective treatment for all types of musculoskeletal problems. From general acute pain to more ongoing chronic pain throughout the entire body.

Psychologically massage produces a feeling of relaxation and well-being. The release of physical tension also releases unconscious mental tension. It is like a spring clean of the mental processes generating a feeling and sense of energy release.
