"In
every client I see the potential for abundant health and wellness"
Merril Bowater ND
In
an ideal world your body would perform and function the way nature intended.
There
would be no pain or depression, no allergies or constant infections. No irritating
skin problems or difficulties conceiving a baby. No obesity or heart disease.
Alas,
life is complex and our bodies are subject to stress, pollution, internal
toxins, bad diets, a lack of fresh air and exercise, work and family
commitments and a myriad of other stressors that detract from your health and
wellbeing.
Maintaining
abundant health in this scenario is a challenge but it's not inconceivable.
All it takes is a conscious
commitment to live well and be well.
We
live in a society were ill health is tolerated as the 'norm'. If you've got a
headache then reach for a pain reliever. If you've got a bad back take an Anti-inflammatory.
There's
no doubt that these drugs do work, the pain subsides but the problem remains.
Symptomatic relief is very tempting but at some stage wouldn't you want to get
to cause of that discomfort and fix it if you could?
Let's
take the example of a reoccurring headache. Would you be surprised to learn
that it may simply be a sign of dehydration? Alternatively, your blood glucose
levels may have dropped or you may have a sinus infection or eye strain, neck
and shoulder tension, a vitamin/mineral deficiency or any one of a myriad of
other potential causes.
As
a Naturopath I'm trained to take everything into consideration and view your
life holistically. Therefore, during an initial consultation while discussing
your medical history (past and present) I'll be looking for clues to explain
the cause(s) of your discomfort.
Your
diet speaks volumes about your health both past and present and your potential
to develop preventable health concerns in the future. You're working and living
environment and past and present stressors also provide clues. Risk factors such as being overweight,
smoking, high blood pressure, etc. all impact significantly on your current and future
health.
Despite
the myriad of health concerns that my clients present with, there is infinite
potential for every client to achieve greatly improved health and wellbeing.
It's
not uncommon for my clients to present with 2-3+ serious health concerns during
their initial consultation. The second consultation is very exciting as many
positive changes have typically occurred. From a practitioner's point of view
this is very rewarding. From the client's point of view this is a definite
improvement and the start of a wellness journey.
