In naturopathic health promotion, therapeutic substances and techniques are imployed that act in harmony with the body's self-healing processes. Techniques and treatments are designed not to counteract or supervene the healing process. Naturopathic health methodology are applied as a means of assisting and augmenting this "healing power of nature". This is the philosophical ideology and priciples of this organization.
2. We believe that all individuals have the right to information and practical assistance in personal health promotion, no matter how controversial.
3. The freedom of choice of practitioner and non-toxic and drugless therapeutics.
