Homeopaths believe that there
is a “vital force” that regulates the body
and maintains it in a state of well-being.
If this force is put under strain illness
can result, and Homeopaths see symptoms
of illness as an indication that the body
is using its natural self-healing abilities
to fight back. Homeopathy attempts to stimulate
the body’s self-healing abilities rather
than suppress symptoms. |
The Alexander Technique is
based on the principle that our holistic
health is influenced by habitually poor
posture. This could relate to basic functions
such as sitting, standing, or lifting incorrectly,
or perhaps the physical tension that can
build up as a result of stress, anxiety,
or low self-esteem. By becoming aware of
bad postural habits, and re-learning basic
movements, over time we can rectify the
situation. |
