The word “Holistic” is from ancient Greek word "holos," meaning "whole". The phenomenal advancement of modern medicine has led to increasing super specialization. As a result, human beings are often viewed as a conglomeration of organs. It is crucial to understand ourselves as multidimensional beings possessing body, mind and spirit. All are inextricably connected, and a dynamic balance of all three is essential for real well-being. Holistic medicine views the patient in totality as a human being, in the context of his or her surroundings. Thus, treatment is based on the physical, psychological, social, nutritional, environmental and spiritual needs of that individual.
HOLISTIC PHILOSOPHY
The United Nations World Health Organisation (W.H.O.) defines health as "a state of complete physical, mental and social well being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity". The paradigm shift that is occurring is from a medical doctor who merely treats diseases to a holistic physician who improves health. The approach is prevention of illness, early intervention and boosting one's immune system. The fundamental principle underlying Holistic Treatment is that the natural defence and immune system of an individual when strengthened, has the potential to heal and prevent diseases.
BODY
The human body needs to be rejuvenated from time to time. Repetitive and routine work takes its toll on your body. Perennial ailments such as aches, fatigue, etc., are incorrectly accepted as part of the misery of daily life. It need not be this way - isn't it time to experience a lightness in your body that allows you to sail through your regular routine? Muscular tension is released through energy-balancing massage, and the whole system is refreshed with the help of hydrotherapy, vegetable and mudpacks. Touch therapy is one of many forms available at the centre that lead to a profound rejuvenation.
MIND
The mind is an important and integral part of the human being. The mind mediates between the inner and outer world. It is powerful and yet vulnerable, and any ailment can manifest itself in both the psychic and somatic spheres. We help you to handle and overcome the stress that invariably comes your way, thus avoiding both mental and physical illness. We help you gain control over yourself and over the causes and the symptoms of stress. Meditation, deep relaxation techniques and yogasanas improve concentration and help in providing clarity of thought. Medicated herbal oils and massotherapy helps focus the mind, while acupressure leads to an improved understanding of the flow of energy within.
SPIRIT
The real source of energy is more powerful than the mind or body. The inner self needs to be at peace, contented and in a state of radiant health. Harness your potential and your inner power. Move into the realm of personal transformation - synchronise your mind, body and spirit and tap your inner strengths. Begin your search for health, wholeness and meaning with us by leaving behind the hectic pace of modern life. Come to LOTUS NATURE CURE and restore harmony, soothe your mind, uplift your spirit and enhance your feeling of well-being.
INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE & COMPLEMENTARY THERAPIES
Appreciating the significant role of modern medical techniques, holistic medicine integrates traditional medical systems (such as Ayurveda, Homeopathy, Naturopathy, Siddha, Unani) and complementary therapies (including Yoga, Acupuncture, Reflexology) to help and hasten healing.
The success of Integrative Medicine is the ability of selecting and blending the appropriate systems of medicine, without compromising on the authenticity of each individual system. Apart from having a full fledged knowledge of each system, it is crucial for the holistic physician to have the wisdom and experience in implementing such an integration of systems. When done appropriately, this combination enhances the healing powers of the various approaches.
The efficacy of treatment is strengthened when an additional emphasis is given to customized lifestyle management.
A harmonious integration of different Systems of Medicine and Complementary Therapies, is what we offer at LOTUS NATURE CURE. Our entire focus is person-oriented rather than system-oriented. Our emphasis is on the Prevention of Illness, Early Intervention and Health Promotion. Health problems are diagnosed and evaluated by detailed case studies and necessary investigations. The individual treatment programmes are designed after these detailed holistic health evaluations are made. For those already on other treatments or medication, the treatment protocol will take that into consideration and if required, the programme will be done in association with your consultant/doctor.
