Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathy, also called naturopathic medicine, originated in Europe and aims to support the body's ability to heal itself through the use of dietary and lifestyle changes together with CAM therapies such as herbs, massage, and joint manipulation.
It is a whole medical system and one of the systems of healing and beliefs that have evolved over time in different cultures and parts of the world. Naturopathy is rooted in health care approaches that were popular in Europe, especially in Germany, in the 19th century. It also includes therapies (both ancient and modern) from other traditions. The emphasis is on supporting health rather than combating disease.
