Naturopathic Consultation

During a naturopathic consultation the practitioner looks at the person as a "whole" by reviewing signs and symptoms of all body systems, lifestyle and a brief review of diet. Treatment may include an individualized liquid herbal extract preparation, nutritional supplements and ways to optimize diet and lifestyle may be discussed.

Herbal Medicine

Our ancestors learned over time the healing power of plants. In modern times, methods have been devised to extract the healing compounds from medicinal plants. Naturopaths utilize herbs for short or long term treatment to support, heal, nourish, stimulate, or strengthen the body or body systems. A wide range of acute or chronic ailments can be addressed. The use of medicinal herbs promotes self healing, greater well-being, and prevention of disease in the body.

Homoeopathy

Based on the principle "Let Like be Cured with Like", homoeopathy uses minute doses of a substance to stimulate the body's vital force. This gentle yet powerful ancient healing art allows the body to balance and heal itself instead of fighting or suppressing symptoms

Prescribing a constitutional or 'complete' remedy can bring profound changes in acute or chronic ailments of a physical, mental, or emotional nature. Physical, mental, and emotional thoughts and feelings are discussed including fears, dreams, aggravating and ameliorating factors. Acute or 'first-aid' homoeopathic prescribing is also available. Easy to use, safe and effective for children, elderly, during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and even with animals. Safe to use with other medications or herbal preparations.

Nutritional Guidance

Healthy eating is an integral part of Naturopathy. The naturopath will discuss your nutritional goals and look at current dietary patterns. Beneficial for people who already follow a 'healthy diet' as this session gives plenty of easy to implement take home advice, and takes an educational look at how foods work in the body. Individualized nutrition advice will be provided for any specific health conditions. Kamalaya emphasizes wholesome food, as dietary habits play an important role in preventative and curative aspects of health. Nutrition plays a major role in restoring and maintaining health by supplying necessary nutrients to body cells for energy production, tissue repair, hormone production, and proper organ function.

Flower Remedies

Flower essences were used in Ancient Egypt as well as India, Asia, Europe, South America, and by the Australian Aborigines. This system was rediscovered and popularized eighty years ago in England by the work of Dr Edward Bach. Flower essences work quickly and deeply, addressing psychological, spiritual, and physical states relevant to today, to bring about harmony.

When emotional balance is restored by the flower essences, true healing can occur. Dr Bach suggested that physical illness was actually a message from our higher self calling for a change in our mental outlook and way of living. Positive qualities that reside deep inside us are brought forth, and emotional blocks are removed by the essences. Their activation allows us to replace fear with courage, insecurity with self-confidence, and hatred with love, renewing your passion for life. During a flower remedy consultation your emotional and physical state will be discussed, allowing the practitioner to design a remedy formulated specifically to meet your needs.
