WHAT IS THE TRADITIONAL HEALTH APPROACH?

The oldest human traditions have long recognized balance as the most important aspect of optimal health. A traditional approach to health understands illness as a state of imbalance within the individual and between the individual and the environment. The objective of traditional medical treatment is to restore balance. The purpose of traditional medicine is to avoid and treat illness by understanding how we become sick.
