Ten Principles of Naturopathy

1. The Root Cause of Disease is the Same for All.

All diseases,  their causes, and their treatment are the same.

  • Illnesses arise from toxin accumulation, poor lifestyle, and imbalanced body functions. Healing focuses on restoring balance. This principle suggests that diseases arise from similar root causes, such as toxin accumulation, poor diet, or an unhealthy lifestyle. Therefore, the method of healing (natural cleansing, fasting, proper diet, etc.) remains consistent across different illnesses.

2. A Weak Body or weak Immunity, Not Germs, Causes Disease.

Germs, Bacteria, Viruses are not the cause of disease.

  • This challenges the conventional germ theory by suggesting that a weakened internal environment makes the body susceptible to infections, rather than germs being the primary cause. Naturopathy focuses on strengthening the body rather than just killing germs.

  • Germs only affect a body that is weakened by an unhealthy lifestyle. Strengthening the body naturally prevents infections.

3. Acute Illness Helps Cleanse the Body.

Sudden disease is not an enemy but a friend.

  • Acute illnesses like fever, colds, and diarrhea are seen as the body’s natural way of detoxifying. Instead of suppressing symptoms, naturopathy encourages supporting the body’s self-cleansing mechanisms.

  • Fevers, colds, and other acute conditions are the body’s way of detoxifying. They should not be suppressed but supported naturally.

4. Nature is the Best Healer.

Nature itself is the actual doctor.

  • The body has an inherent ability to heal itself when given the right conditions. Natural elements such as fresh air, sunlight, water, and proper nutrition play a crucial role in healing.

  • The body has a self-healing ability. Sunlight, air, water, proper nutrition, and rest activate this natural healing power.

5. Treat the Whole Body, Not Just Symptoms.

Treatment is not for a specific disease but for the entire body.

  • Instead of focusing on isolated symptoms or single diseases, naturopathy aims to bring overall balance to the body, mind, and spirit, leading to complete well-being.

  • Healing should work on all-embracing  health rather than targeting specific symptoms or diseases.

6. Disease Labels are Not Important.

Diagnosis of disease is not necessary.

  • Instead of relying on detection and name of disease, naturopathy focuses on assessing the body’s condition holistically and restoring its natural functions through lifestyle corrections and natural therapies. It identifies root imbalances and restores health through natural means.

7. Chronic Diseases Take Time to Heal.

It takes time to cure a patient suffering from chronic ailments.

  • Chronic diseases develop over time due to lifestyle habits, and their healing also requires time, patience, and consistent natural treatment. Instant cures are not the focus.

  • Long-term health issues require patience and continuous natural treatments to achieve lasting recovery.

8. Suppressed Illnesses Must be Released for True Healing.

Hidden or unknown diseases come to the surface through Nature Cure.

  • Many modern treatments suppress symptoms rather than addressing the root cause. Naturopathy allows hidden or suppressed diseases to express themselves before the body can heal fully.

  • When the body heals naturally, past suppressed symptoms may resurface temporarily before complete recovery.

9. Mind, Body, and Spirit Must be Treated Together.

Simultaneous ie. concomitantly  treatment of body, mind, and soul.

  • True healing requires a balance of physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Naturopathy incorporates natural therapies emotional wellness along with physical detoxification.

  • Physical health, mental peace, and spiritual well-being are interconnected. So their treatment happens in unison. True healing happens when all three are in harmony.

10. Healing Happens Without Synthetic Medicines.

No medicines (containing chemicals or drugs) should be given to the patient during Nature Cure treatment.

Naturopathy avoids artificial drugs, as they may interfere with the body’s natural healing process. Instead, treatments include fasting, hydrotherapy, mud therapy, yoga, and proper nutrition which are natural. They are more effective than chemical medicines.
