I was excited to find that a herbal medicine formula I contributed for digestive dysfunction was included in a publication by one of our herbal medicine manufacturers “ Clinical Herbal Formulas. A collection of herbal formulas from Australian practitioners for Healthcare professionals only”.
Although the formula was a neat little package, our formulas and treatment plans are a bit more complex ensuring therapeutic goals are met with measurable outcomes for our patients, generally within a fortnight.
Formulating a naturopathic treatment plan is multi-layered using herbal medicine, supplements, dietary guidelines, testing, education and advice on lifestyle factors. It is a balancing act treating symptoms, supporting the function of the organs such as the digestive system, liver or kidneys, and raising the patient's immunity and/or vitality.
The focus of any treatment plan is always addressing the root cause of the problem rather than suppressing symptoms.
