Natural Health Therapy

If you don't have accurate details regarding herbal, then
you might make a bad choice on the subject. Don't let that
happen: keep reading. All natural health says is that all
health and sickness can be affected by simple natural therapies.
At its most basic level it can be said that natural health
therapy refers to only one thing: biological factors of
health, especially as they apply to everyday life in western
society. In its early history, the natural health movement
did show considerable interest in hydrotherapy and the relaxation
it offered through the usage of spas, steam baths, and other
water cures.
The more modern additions to natural health that concern
themselves with the body-mind connection and how that relates
to stress and tension are influenced by eastern alternative
medical theories. Having said that, what natural health
therapy finally implies is that the human body has complete
capacity to heal itself from most forms of sickness (of
course, a broken bone cannot be fixed by altering your lifestyle,
it needs to be put in a cast), mostly through prevention.
So as far as natural health thinking goes, all healing is
basically self-healing and this is considered to be a basic
property of all things alive.
Vitalism It is to be observed that as early 400 B.C., Hippocrates
(who is considered to be the father of medicine) had written
that, "the natural healing force within us is the greatest
force in getting well". This is known as vitalism, also
known as 'vis medicatrix naturae' (the inherent wisdom of
the body). To put it simply, whenever there is something
wrong with the body the doctor will attempt something, for
example: using antibiotics to kill the infection, perform
surgery to remove a poisoned part or for amputation, put
a broken bone into a cast, suture a flesh wound.
All of these are part of the healing trade. The catch is
that the body of patient has to actively respond to all
this treatment otherwise it is wasted. Vitalism makes the
body want to heal and get well. This is a well documented
fact that people who deal with their physical problems confidently
and cheerfully heal faster than others. The precise reason
as to why this happens is not understood but the fact is
still undeniable.
Holism One explanation comes from the concept of Holism
which says that the process of healing is a combined effort
by the entire organism and cannot be achieved by any isolated
part of that organism. The Holism concept can be traced
to the time of Paracelsus, 1439-1541, who is credited with
being the father of modern medicine.
When Paracelsus treated patients he refused to pay attention
to only that part which was showing symptoms of disease.
Instead, he tried to treat the whole body as one whole entity.
Holism is not a symptom=cure sort of healing technique.
It involves a careful study of the defensive abilities of
each individual patient's body.
Practitioners have to have the knowledge to differentiate
between disease symptoms and the defensive or recovery systems.
What Holism believes is that when someone falls sick, their
whole body has undergone some kind of weakness and has lost
the balance of its strength. So the solution is to simply
restore the strength of the body. All western natural health
therapies rely on biological factors and the better developed
psychosocial approaches are a modern addition. Individualism
this concept is different in the sense that it places all
responsibility for sickness and good health on every individual
in a society.
So everyone is responsible for their personal health. Individualism
results from an awareness of the importance of individuals
in a community and the resulting virtues of self-reliance
and personal independence. Well-rounded individuals are
both self-reliant and independent.
Victim-blaming What this means is that if someone gets sick
then the victim of the sickness did something wrong. While
it might sound a little weird what it honestly means is
that personal health is a personal responsibility and no
one can blame someone or something else for his or her illness.
It focuses on the self. Improve yourself because the environment
around you is too big to change for one individual.
In other words, health problems should be self corrected
and the obvious solution is a change in the victim's lifestyle.
Prevention This is probably the most difficult concept for
the modern day individual to grasp. Though everyone is aware
of the phrase 'prevention is better than cure' there are
few people who actually go the extent of preventing even
the most obvious trouble (think about smoking, alcohol,
high cholesterol foods, sugar, etc.).
Prevention does not merely suggest that troublesome activities
should be avoided. What is says is that improving health
is better than fighting disease. It suggests the application
of this to short term as well as long term negative effects.
In the short term, a healthy body can easily ward off minor
illnesses (like common cold) and injuries (razor cuts, skin
peeling during sports activities for instance).
In the long term prevention suggests caution in all that
is done today so that it does not result in adverse outcomes
in the future. In other words, it too suggests a change
in lifestyle for a healthier tomorrow. Reasonably good health
can be achieved by everyone. What is even better that the
means to do so do not have to acquired from anyone, the
capacity to do so lies within us. The next few pages focus
exclusively on herbs and subsequently on natural herbal
cures. |
