Book Synopsis The History of Naturopathic Medicine by : Iva Lloyd
Download or read book The History of Naturopathic Medicine written by Iva Lloyd and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 2400 years ago Hippocrates was first to proclaim "the healing power of nature." Known as the founder of medicine, he believed in the natural healing ability of rest, a good diet, fresh air and cleanliness. Naturopathic medicine is based on this ancient philosophy. During the early 1900s naturopathic medicine enjoyed much growth and acceptance. The 1920s to the 1970s were a time of tremendous struggle for the naturopathic profession as the focus of health care shifted toward pharmaceutical medicine and medical institutions. Today, naturopathic medicine has established accredited academic institutions and programs, has strong national and provincial associations and, most importantly, it continues to graduate naturopathic doctors that embrace the principles of the healing power of the body - treating the root cause of disease and offering individualized treatment to each person.

Book Synopsis Naturopathic Physical Medicine by : Leon Chaitow
Download or read book Naturopathic Physical Medicine written by Leon Chaitow and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2008-05-30 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATUROPATHIC PHYSICAL MEDICINE provides a philosophical naturopathic perspective, as well as practical clinical applications, for manual and physical approaches to health care. A wide range of bodywork and movement approaches and modalities are evaluated in relation to their ability to be appropriately used in naturopathic treatment and rehabilitation settings. The model of care emphasised in this text recognizes that naturopathically oriented therapeutic interventions usually focus on achieving one or all of the following: enhancement of function so that the person, system or part, can better self-regulate in response to adaptive demands; modification or removal of adaptive load factors; and symptomatic relief without creation of significant additional adaptive changes.

Download or read book Nature Cures written by James C. Whorton and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2004 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From reflexology and rolfing to shiatsu and dream work, we are confronted today by a welter of alternative medical therapies. But as James Whorton shows in Nature Cures, the recent explosion in alternative medicine actually reflects two centuries of competition and conflict between mainstream medicine and numerous unorthodox systems. This is the first comprehensive history of alternative medicine in America, examining the major systems that have emerged from 1800 to the present. Writing with wit and with fairness to all sides, Whorton offers a fascinating look at alternative health systems such as homeopathy, water cures, Mesmerism, Christian Science, osteopathy, chiropractic, naturopathy, and acupuncture. He highlights the birth and growth of each system (including European roots where appropriate) and vividly describes both the theories and the therapies developed within each system, including such dubious practices as hour-long walks barefoot in snow or Samuel Thompson's "puking and steaming" regimen. In particular, Whorton illuminates the philosophy of "natural healing" that has been espoused by alternative practitioners throughout history and the distinctive interpretations of "nature cure" developed by the different systems. Though he doesn't hesitate to point out the failings of these systems, he also shows that some "cult medicines" have eventually won recognition from practitioners of mainstream medicine. Throughout, Whorton writes with a light touch and quotes from contemporary humorists such as Mark Twain. His book is an engaging and authoritative history that highlights the course of alternative medicine in the U.S., providing valuable background to the wide range of therapies available today.
Book Synopsis Origins of Naturopathic Medicine by : ND BBE Czeranko
Download or read book Origins of Naturopathic Medicine written by ND BBE Czeranko and published by Nunm Press. This book was released on 2016-09-11 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Origins of Naturopathic Medicine, the first of a twelve volume series entitled The Hevert Collection: In Their Own Words, returns to print prominent contributors to the journals published by Benedict Lust between 1900 and 1923. Topics in this first volume include the medical laws of Naturopathy, discussions of therapies, descriptions of health resorts and clinics founded, colleges and school needs, medical legislations of the time, legal issues faced, strategies to discredit Naturopathy, issues of medical freedom, Convention business, physical therapy, and much more. Many illustrations and an index are included. Benedict Lust (1872-1945) at the age of 29 had already founded North America's first School of Naturopathic Medicine in New York City (1901). From 1896 to his death, his journal, The Naturopath and Herald of Health, provided a sophisticated, widely utilized forum for the Naturopathic profession in the early 20th century and helped to establish the educational foundation and framework for the naturopathic profession. Organized and selected by Sussanna Czeranko, ND, The Hevert Collection gives readers access to the issues which were faced by the early Naturopaths and which shaped and coalesced the profession, preparing those who followed these extraordinary pioneers to endure many obstacles. Many valuable lessons from this restored literature guide and teach us a century later--when many of the same issues continue.

Download or read book Copeland's Cure written by Natalie Robins and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2009-07-22 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, one out of every three Americans uses some form of alternative medicine, either along with their conventional (“standard,” “traditional”) medications or in place of them. One of the most controversial–as well as one of the most popular–alternatives is homeopathy, a wholly Western invention brought to America from Germany in 1827, nearly forty years before the discovery that germs cause disease. Homeopathy is a therapy that uses minute doses of natural substances–minerals, such as mercury or phosphorus; various plants, mushrooms, or bark; and insect, shellfish, and other animal products, such as Oscillococcinum. These remedies mimic the symptoms of the sick person and are said to bring about relief by “entering” the body’s “vital force.” Many homeopaths believe that the greater the dilution, the greater the medical benefit, even though often not a single molecule of the original substance remains in the solution. In Copeland’s Cure, Natalie Robins tells the fascinating story of homeopathy in this country; how it came to be accepted because of the gentleness of its approach–Nathaniel Hawthorne and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow were outspoken advocates, as were Louisa May Alcott, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Daniel Webster. We find out about the unusual war between alternative and conventional medicine that began in 1847, after the AMA banned homeopaths from membership even though their medical training was identical to that of doctors practicing traditional medicine. We learn how homeopaths were increasingly considered not to be “real” doctors, and how “real” doctors risked expulsion from the AMA if they even consulted with a homeopath. At the center of Copeland's Cure is Royal Samuel Copeland, the now-forgotten maverick senator from New York who served from 1923 to 1938. Copeland was a student of both conventional and homeopathic medicine, an eye surgeon who became president of the American Institute of Homeopathy, dean of the New York Homeopathic Medical College, and health commissioner of New York City from 1918 to 1923 (he instituted unique approaches to the deadly flu pandemic). We see how Copeland straddled the worlds of politics (he befriended Calvin Coolidge, Herbert Hoover, and Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, among others) and medicine (as senator, he helped get rid of medical “diploma mills”). His crowning achievement was to give homeopathy lasting legitimacy by including all its remedies in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938. Finally, the author brings the story of clashing medical beliefs into the present, and describes the role of homeopathy today and how some of its practitioners are now adhering to the strictest standards of scientific research–controlled, randomized, double-blind clinical studies.

It is a type of alternative medicine that does not use modern drugs and chemicals. Practitioners of naturopathic medicine believe that the body has the power to heal itself without the intervention of chemicals. The body already has the necessary instruments to become healthy; it just needs to know how to use them. Naturopathy includes a wide variety of natural treatments and uses a holistic approach to any medical affliction. This type of alternative medicine combines authentic knowledge with the discoveries of modern science and brings a new way of treating the body without risking long term injury. The roots of naturopathy go back thousands of years, and since ancient times, people have used the benefits of nature to maintain their health. The procedures are meant to be as minimally invasive as possible. Surgery and modern medicine are recommended only in extreme cases. Otherwise the body's energy, together with natural ingredients, is all that is needed to heal almost any disease. Additionally, naturopathy emphasizes the importance of careful prevention, rather than desperate treatment. Alternative Medicine Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn...
