Principles & Practice

Nature Cure is not, and makes no pretence to be, a substitute for medication. It cannot be produced in doses for specific ailments, and although this may sound strange, it is not primarily a resort for people when they are ill. It is much bigger than that.

Philosophy

Principles & Practice

High Level Health is not to be achieved by the efforts of any group of practitioners. There must be intelligent and whole-hearted co-operation by the individual concerned and after it has been achieved, it must be just as intelligently sustained by wholesome habits of mind and body.

For this reason, we deliberately avoid any form of treatment that may give dramatic but transient results, and concentrate on those which either can be easily continued at home or will relieve strains for a considerable time after their application

James C Thomson
