Treatment Philosophy

The principle of nature cure is founded on the theory of Panchamahabhuta (पंचमहाभूत), that the body is made of five universal elements – space (आकाश-akash), air (वायु-vayu), fire (अग्नि-agni), water (जल-jal) and earth (पृथ्वी-prithvi) and that diseases are caused by an imbalance in the state of these elements. Natural therapies remove the imbalances (विकृति-vikruti) of the elements by removing the causative factors and bring the elements back to their natural state (प्रकृति-prakruti). Therefore, it is not only a treatment system but a way of living in line with the laws of nature so that people can enjoy a disease free and healthy life.

Many diseases of the body are born due to the accumulation of toxins produced during the process of digestion. Normally, these toxins are excreted as the body’s waste, but due to an incorrect diet and lifestyle, negative mental attitude, stress and a lack of proper exercise, vital force is diminished and these toxins accumulate in the body and eventually cause the disease. By developing a healthy lifestyle involving a natural and balanced diet, a proper daily routine, maintaining physical and mental hygiene, regular exercise, cultivating positive thinking and proper relaxation, we can restore and rejuvenate our health.

Modern medicine focuses more on external causative factors, whereas most of the traditional and ancient health care systems emphasise more on internal environment and correction of the imbalance of different humors or energy principles in the human body. Naturopathy believes that most of the diseases of the body are caused due to imbalance in the Panchamahabhootas leading to accumulation of toxins produced during the process of digestion and weakened vital force. Most of the acute symptoms such as Fever, Vomiting, Diarrhoea are nature’s attempt to eliminate the accumulated toxins or waste products from the body. Suppression of the symptoms leads to recurrence of the same symptoms or manifestation of chronic diseases. All such acute or chronic diseases occur because of our faulty way of living habits including our diet, exercise, rest,sleep and negative thinking. Repeated negative insults on the body lowers the “Vital Force” and immunity .

Treatment program with nature cure is aimed at providing supportive environment to the body to correct the imbalance. Natural food such as Fruits, Vegetable in the form of Juices, Salad, Sprouts and Boiled vegetables are rich in natural vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants. Dietary changes, mental relaxation, various naturopathic treatments and certain herbs help in correction of the imbalance in Panchamahabhootas,improving metabolism and eliminate the toxins through various excretory functions including urine, bowel, sweat and expiration. It also restores homeostasis and improves vitality.

We also emphasise on educating a person about the right way of living and self-management of minor health problems by simple ways. The holistic experience at the Centre helps one to live in accordance with the Laws of Nature and motivates one to maintain healthy life-style.

The treatment is based on five natural elements i.e. Space (Aakash), Air (Vayu), Fire (Agni), Water (Jal) and Earth (Prithvi).

  • Space (आकाश) – Space is emptiness. It is present in hollow cavities within the body and empty areas of the Universe. The properties of space are described as subtle, soft, smooth or friction-less and abundance. Fasting and getting exposed to open areas helps to increase this element.
  • Air (वायु) – Air has light, dry, subtle, mobile and rough properties. It is responsible for movements and dryness in the body. Food items like millets, watermelon, leafy vegetables and dry food; exposure to wind and exercise will increase this element in the body.
  • Fire (अग्नि) – Fire is hot, sharp, intense, dry and light. Fire emits heat. Fire plays important role for digestion and metabolism. Sun is the ultimate source of energy for our survival. Sunbath, ginger, garlic, sour fruits and hot food increase this element in the body.
  • Water (जल) – Water is moist, cool, soft and oily (unctuous). Water helps to balance Fire and Air. Water intake is useful in relieving acidity, constipation and accumulation of toxic metabolites. This element is used widely in Hydrotherapy.
  • Earth (पृथ्वी) – Earth is solid, dense, heavy and stable. Earth constitutes the solid structure in the universe and our body. It gives strength and stability. Fats, nuts and sweet taste increase this element in our body. Soil is used for mud baths and mud packs.
