How Long To 'Fix' A Health Condition

I had a visit from Andrew Cathlie, naturopath, of Thornlie Naturopathic Centre in Perth. Andrew and his family are enthusiastic Alphion users and as we talked the discussion moved to expectations of people about health. Andrew was saying that he kept good notes on his patients so that when they came back six months later he could check on how they had improved. he said in many cases they didn't even remember how bad they had been.

We often have the same situation. A 73 year old lady rang our alkalizing specialists yesterday. "I've been drinking the alkaline water for two months and although I have much more energy, my arthritis hasn't gone yet. can I send it back? I don't think it's working."

We don't promise any therapeutic result, but many people still ask.

Andrew made the point that according to the best authorities in naturopathy, you will take an average of one month healing for every year you have had a health condition. So if a 73 year old lady has had arthritis for 10 years, she has ten months' healing process ahead of her given the right remedy. Many of our clients do have very fast health changes, but the slower processes are often lost to memory unless a good therapist with good records is willing to remind the patient of what they complained about a year ago.

If you are in need of a good naturopath in Perth, give Andrew a call on
