Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whereas various professionalised heterodox medical systems found in Western societies, such as homeopathy, chiropractic, osteopathy, Chinese traditional medicine, and even acupuncture have been the object of considerable historical and social scientific research, naturopathy has been, at best, spotty. This book constitutes the first effort to provide a broad social historical and ethonographic account, particularly in the United States, Canada, and Australia, but to a lesser extent in Germany, Britian, New Zealand and India. Naturopathy emerged in the early twentieth century under the leadership of Benedict Lust, a German immigrant to the United States who had studied under Father Kneipp (a strong proponent of water cure), as a highly eclectic therapeautic system that drew not only from hydropathy, but also herbalism, colonic irrigation, dietetics, fasting, exercise, iridology, and manipulative therapy. While some naturopaths advocate these modalities, others today draw upon homeopathy, vitamin and nutritional supplements, acupuncture, Ayurveda, and other therapies. Naturopaths or naturopathic physicians are the ultimate therapeutic eclectics within the broader confines of complementary and alternative medicine. Yet naturopathy is not a monolithic entity but has been shaped by historical developments in the larger plural medical systems and national sociopolitical contexts in which it is embedded. Like other medical systems, naturopathy is a cultural construction with fluid borders within specific countries across the globe.

Download or read book Physical Culture in Naturopathic Medicine written by Nd Bbe Czeranko and published by Ncnm Press. This book was released on 2016-04-26 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The naturopathic doctors of the early twentieth century recognized the "Physical Culture" movement, championed by Bernarr Macfadden, as the powerful tool it was for promoting enduring health. Its primary objective was to mobilize people to get active to get healthy. It was promoted by a massively successful publishing enterprise, which popularized images of men and women exercising and doing sports. As well as championing an active lifestyle, the Physical Culture movement called attention to unhealthy clothing fashions for women, such as the wretched corsets of the time. The movement called out the censoring of information about female physiology, women's health, and planned parenthood. Naturopaths and Physical Culturalists alike eschewed sedentary lifestyles and the oppression of women, instead encouraging liberating knowledge about women's and men's health, sunshine, fresh air, wholesome food, connection to the earth and hydrotherapy, all foundational to naturopathic practice. The Physical Culture movement is still with us today. Some of the terminology may be different, but the principles remain powerful and effective. The Indigenous Rowing program at the Onondaga Nation is a powerful modern day example of Benedict Lust's passion for Physical Culture as the center of Naturopathic Medicine and an enduring solution of Indigenous Diabetes and Heart Disease. -Dr. Gere Reisinger, ND (NCNM 1975) Head Coach Indigenous Rowing Club, Onondaga Nation Dr. Sussanna Czeranko continues to provide readers with important historical references from rare book collections from around the world in this newest addition to her series. What a wonderful revelation to discover that champions for Naturopathic Medicine, like Bernarr Macfadden who promoted exercise and physical fitness, were also dynamic voices in the Suffragette Movement: another reason to love and have pride in this profession! -Karen Frangos, PT, ND (NCNM 1997) President of the Hawaii Society of Naturopathic Physicians Sussanna Czeranko is a brilliant physician-scholar who has contributed greatly to the history of naturopathic medicine through the Hevert Collection. Dr. Czeranko's examination of the Physical Culture of early Naturopathy is an important and timely addition to medical literature. This text thoroughly covers the early history of Physical Culture, a subject that I have explored for over two decades and is very relevant for today. I highly recommend this book to any practitioner or historian interested in Physical Culture. -Les Moore, ND, MSOM, DHANP, LAc (NCNM 1999) Author, "Classical Formulas in the Western Herbal Tradition,"

Book excerpt: NATUROPATHIC PHYSICAL MEDICINE provides a philosophical naturopathic perspective, as well as practical clinical applications, for manual and physical approaches to health care.

This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grappling with Societies and Institutions in an Era of Socio-Ecological Crisis is an autobiographical ethnography of the journey through various societies and institutions and how they function in the midst of an era of socio-ecological crises. The volume traces the steps of the author in becoming a radical anthropologist, namely through the experience of immigration and naturalization from Peru to the United States and then to Australia, politicization while working as an engineer in the aircraft industry during the late 1960s, socialization in and subsequent exit from Roman Catholicism, and experiences as an academic working in the corporate university. As well, the author illuminates the practices of research and engagement as a scholar-activist on various topics, such as the Levites of Utah and African American Spiritual churches, socio-political and religious life in East Germany, complementary and alternative medicine, the Australian climate movement, and democratic eco-socialism.

Download or read book Principles of Naturopathic Medicine written by Sussanna Czeranko and published by Ncnm Press. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why Naturopaths do what they do is determined by a set of principles anchored in clinical experience and guided by successful clinical results. The fourth volume of the Hevert Collection, Principles of Naturopathic Medicine distills from a rich literature the principles that propelled the early Naturopaths to take a different path from those around them. All spoke in a unified voice, proclaiming that Nature must be respected and acknowledged, especially if healing was the objective. The human body's intelligence to restore vitality and health was a principle that the early Naturopaths knew and believed with absolute conviction. They knew that the self-regulating powers of Nature were beyond the powers of men, and that to think otherwise was simply folly, and even arrogant. Healing occurred when the body's own processes were supported rather than suppressed. They knew this. They practiced from these principles. The Hevert Collection: In Their Own Words restores to the profession an abundant literature, featuring the guiding principles of Naturopathy. Culling through this rich landscape of seminal articles, Dr. Sussanna Czeranko, ND, NCNM's Rare Book Room Curator, has lovingly and professionally created this twelve book series, reintroducing the roots of the medicine to modern Naturopaths. "Despite a century of economic, political and social oppression by the AMA, naturopathic medicine kept alive in the culture the principles of health promotion, healthful living and natural healing-principles now widely accepted as the only cure for the healthcare crisis. Dr. Czeranko's remarkable series of historic books captures how these important concepts became recognized and evolved to inspire truly curative medicine."- Joe Pizorrno, ND (NCNM 1975), Author, Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine, Textbook of Natural Medicine. Editor-in-Chief, Integrative Medicine, A Clinician's Journal "This book introduces us to many early 20th Century naturopathic doctors and explains how they put the principles of naturopathy into action to support the healing process of their patients. Principles of Naturopathic Medicine is an important book for our profession, not only because of its historical value, but also because it is inspiring in its many perspectives on harmonious, healthy living that are sorely needed in today's drug-dominated world." - Helen C. Healy, ND (NCNM Class of 1983) served as President of the Minnesota Association of Naturopathic Physicians and the Speaker of the House of Delegates for the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians "The principles of our medicine guide us unerringly to the remedies our patients need in order to truly heal and regain health. We are stewards of this wonderful system of healing, and the wisdom of our elders in applying these principles stands for all time as the road map for us to deliver the care that is so desperately needed in our time." - Dr. Neil McKinney, BSc, ND (NCNM 1985) Author, Naturopathic Oncology - an Encyclopaedic Guide for Patients and Physicians
Download or read book The Science of the Sacred written by Nicole Redvers, N.D. and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigenous naturopathic doctor Nicole Redvers pairs evidence-based research with traditional healing modalities, addressing modern health problems and medical processes Modern medical science has finally caught up to what traditional healing systems have known for centuries. Many traditional healing techniques and medicines are often assumed to be archaic, outdated, or unscientific compared to modern Western medicine. Nicole Redvers, a naturopathic physician and member of the Deninu K'ue First Nation, analyzes modern Western medical practices using evidence-informed Indigenous healing practices and traditions from around the world--from sweat lodges and fermented foods to Ayurvedic doshas and meditation. Organized around various sciences, such as physics, genetics, and microbiology, the book explains the connection between traditional medicine and current research around epigenetics and quantum physics, for example, and includes over 600 citations. Redvers, who has traveled and worked with Indigenous groups around the world, shares the knowledge and teachings of health and wellness that have been passed down through the generations, tying this knowledge with current scientific advances. Knowing that the science backs up the traditional practice allows us to have earlier and more specific interventions that integrate age-old techniques with the advances in modern medicine and technology.
