MIND
Holistic practitioners view the body as a whole. The physical inspection of face and markings upon the skin including eyes, tongue, finger nails and present condition of the teeth give us a glimpse of our current state of health. A well trained traditional naturopath will have an innate understanding of how our emotions and environment may have a detrimental affect upon our overall health and vitality. It is very important to incorporate the present mental state of the client and practitioner. One needs to understand a way of doing things better in order to make change. Through free will--as soon as one is ready to receive healing the right people and situations will arise. One only needs to get out of their own way--eliminating limited beliefs and negative core thought patterns and behavior--that may be hindering their growth. Anything that remains stagnant for long periods create conditions conducive for dis-ease to set in.
A naturopathic consultation incorporates non-invasive assessments and visual inspection to gain insight into the present state of health. These assessments may include muscle response testing of not only physical organ and nutritional points but also the energy body, that being the chakra system.

Body
Bodywork is such a useful tool when it comes to helping kick start and align the body's natural healing processes. There are different types of bodywork that may be recommended for different ailments. Typically everyone needs some form of bodywork time to time. We hold memory within our tissues. As the tissues lock up our physical structure tightens. When our mind is at ease our body will follow. CranioSacral is a great bodywork therapy to help put the mind and body at ease--post physical trauma. Light healing touch is recommended to bring about light body awareness--very good post surgery or emotional upset. Reflexology is a science that allows the practitioner to stimulate all organ points throughout the body as well as balancing the energy body. Lymphatic drain is a systematic approach that encourages lymphatic flow by increasing circulation throughout the body. Ayurvedic bodywork therapies are gentle yet powerful. Oil to the body is like love to the soul.
Spirit
Keeping the three bodies connected and working in synergy--allows one to remain calm, present, and aware. It is better to live consciously rather than emotionally. When we are conscious, we have a deeper understanding of events as they unfold. We have less need to control. There are bodywork therapies, energy healing techniques, remedies, and other experiences that can help strengthen and advance our spirit through consciousness. Meditation, yoga, shamanic journeying, music, and dancing--paired with natural surroundings--are all great ways to strengthen and ground the spirit body.
