1. More Security | |
Natural medicine mostly is more gentle and well-tolerated than other medical methods. The use of naturopathy causes less side effects or harms. It is based on medical knowledge, which often has a tradition of more than thousend years. | |
2. More modern Concepts in Therapy | |
The self-healing process will be activated in the patient when he/she becomes active and feels responible for himself/herself. The therapist has to support the healing process by application of regulatory methods. The newest knowledge will be applied in order to activate the auto-regulation of the body. | |
3. Holistic Understanding of Man | |
The natural medicine integrates body, spirit, soul and the surrounding in its diagnostical and therapeutical methods. | |
4. Individual Concern about the Patient | |
The patient will be perceived and treated as a unique human being. | |
5. More economical Use of Operations | |
Operations will be applied only if absolutely necessary, as an ultimo ratio. | |
6. Health Insurances refund the Costs of most of the Treatments in Naturopathy ! | |
Most German health insurances refund the costs of the classical natural medicine like hydrotherapy, phytotherapy, medicated baths, masso-therapy, kinesiotherapy and alimentary therapy, rather seldom other therapies like unconventional therapies. Many hospitals for rehabilitation or specialized hospitals for cancer treatments, diseases of the heart and circulation of blood, diabetes, metabolic diseases, neurodermatitis etc. offer treatments in naturopathy, which are completely refunded by the German health insurances. |
