5 Reasons to Seek Natural Therapy

The Original 5 Reasons to Seek Natural Therapy, Enhanced with Key Concepts:


Reason Number One - SIDE EFFECTS


This is the first thing people are wary of with medical therapy: the side effects of prescription medications. News headlines abound about lawsuits over drug side effects... For the first time ever in the US, more people were killed by prescription drugs than motor vehicle accidents (according to a 2009 analysis).

Many people are becoming aware of this and no longer want illegal or prescription drugs. They are seeking other solutions, many times dating back to the ones that their grandparents had. This trend is growing. The American public is starting to make more natural choices for health care and are exploring alternative medicine options. When grandparents who did not have modern health care lived past their 90s, people look for therapies and practices like what they used that are less harmful, often involving simple, non-toxic organic remedies. They are frustrated being stuck in the medical merry-go-round and the failure of finding a true cure, leading them to search for effective, safer natural therapies.

Reason Number Two - COST


Is it really affordable? In today's economic climate, it is difficult for most people to pay for modern health care... To buy insurance separately is not affordable, and most households have often gone broke with medical bills from an accident or disease. More and more are tired of the medical merry-go-round and are starting to call grandma for her advice and work on their own healing, realizing that preventive and accessible natural therapies can significantly reduce long-term medical expenditures.

Reason Number Three - YOUR OWN HEALING


More people look to natural cures like an herb or ask their grandparents what to do. Some of the wisdom our ancestors learned with those therapies provide good health, and many of these remedies date back thousands of years to ancient practices. The old Greek sage, Hippocrates, is more closely followed in holistic healing programs like naturopathy. His theme is "do no harm, food is thy medicine” and "educate the client about the therapy." Simple yet potent herbal remedies are often utilized in this approach.


When the practitioner follows these methods, the results can be spectacular. One of the reasons is the client is directly engaged in their own recovery, which raises their mood and solidifies another crucial part of the healing process: reversing the damaging psychosomatic influence that low self-esteem can bring.

Reason Number Four – SUPPORT


This is the support you get from a Naturopathic Doctor or Whole Health Practitioner, who acts as a coach in your journey toward holistic healing. The naturopath will work with the client and never talk down to them. Their main job is to teach, so the client is learning how to stay well and is in charge of their own healing.


They learn more about therapies, herbs, and how foods can be medicine. The long-term costs are lowered or non-existent because illness rarely strikes the family. When consultations do take place, they become a one-on-one classroom for learning about natural therapies and well-being.

Reason Number Five - PERSONAL TRIUMPH


Over a period of time, the client has gained a body of knowledge and gets in the habit of knowing what to do. Some families do both: they do what they know and call their natural doctor. It is interesting to note that the Royal Family in England believe in
natural therapies and mainly use Homeopathy. These homeopathic remedies they use are considered the most harmless therapies on the planet.


This is one of the wealthiest families in the world, and they can afford any kind of care, yet they choose alternative medicine and homeopathy. Could it be because they are directly involved with their Homeopathic Doctors who educate them over the years and because they are directly involved in their own healing?

We all have choices, and it would be wise to save money and make the natural choice to maintain your health and avoid illness through comprehensive natural therapies.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hair Mineral Analysis

  • What is the core difference between conventional medicine and the holistic healing approach mentioned?

    The core difference lies in the treatment philosophy. Conventional medicine often focuses on managing symptoms (the disease) with pharmaceutical drugs or surgery, whereas the holistic healing approach focuses on treating the whole person (mind, body, and spirit) to address the root cause of the imbalance, often utilizing diet, lifestyle, and natural therapies to stimulate the body's self-healing mechanisms.

  • Are homeopathic remedies and herbal remedies the same thing?

    No, they are different forms of alternative medicine. Herbal remedies (also known as phytotherapy) use plant parts (leaves, roots, flowers) for their medicinal compounds at material doses. Homeopathic remedies, on the other hand, use highly diluted substances—often derived from plants, minerals, or animals—prepared according to the principle of "like cures like."

  • How does seeking natural therapies help reduce the risk of prescription drug side effects?

    By prioritizing natural therapies and lifestyle changes, individuals often reduce or eliminate their reliance on conventional prescription drugs. Since most severe side effects (Reason 1) are a result of chemical medications, choosing non-toxic organic remedies and natural protocols inherently minimizes the risk of drug-related complications.

  • What are some examples of organic remedies or practices that align with the Hippocrates principle of "food is thy medicine"?

    This principle advocates for using high-quality nutrition as a primary means of health maintenance and recovery. Examples of organic remedies or practices include using fermented foods to support the gut microbiome, incorporating powerful anti-inflammatory spices like turmeric and ginger, or using targeted, organic food-based supplements to correct identified mineral imbalances, such as those revealed by a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA).

  • Is alternative medicine affordable compared to traditional insurance and healthcare costs?

    While the initial cost of consultations or specific alternative medicine products may be out-of-pocket, the post argues that it is often more affordable in the long run. By empowering the client through education and leading to greater self-reliance, the need for expensive, crisis-driven conventional treatments and hospital visits decreases significantly, lowering lifetime medical costs (Reason 2).
