Presentation

Throughout history, human beings have used a large number of natural resources to heal, balance and restore the health of people and even animals.

Naturopathy encompasses therapeutic practices with the aim of preserving health, preventing and treating disease or imbalance, whether physical, emotional and / or energetic.

Naturopathy with a holistic view of the human being, is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a health area that works on the prevention, treatment and promotion of optimal health through the use of therapeutic methods to promote the act-healing process (vix medicatrix naturae).

The WHO recommends to the member states principles of Naturopathy:

- First, do no harm (primun non nocere)
