Natural healing is a method of supporting health and combating diseases, which is based on the use of natural substances, plants and techniques supporting the body’s regenerative processes.
Its aim is to support the body’s natural immunity and self-healing properties, instead of using synthetic drugs. Plant materials such as herbs, spices, essential oils or animal products (honey, propolis) are often used. These practices also use elements related to diet therapy, as well as relaxation and breathing techniques.
Natural healing draws from traditional forms of medicine, such as phytotherapy, Ayurvedic medicine or traditional Chinese medicine. The most popular methods include: Herbal medicine (phytotherapy) – the use of medicinal plants to alleviate symptoms and support health. Homeopathy – a therapy based on the principle of “like cures like”, in which diluted substances are used, which in larger doses could cause disease symptoms. Aromatherapy – the use of essential oils obtained from plants to support health and improve well-being. Hydrotherapy – water treatment in various forms, such as baths or compresses.
Apitherapy – treatment with bee products, including honey, pollen or propolis. Natural treatment is considered a safer alternative to pharmacotherapy, because it uses substances found in nature that have fewer side effects. However, some herbs and methods may cause side effects or interact with medications, so it is worth consulting a doctor or phytotherapist before starting treatment.
