Explore the diverse contemporary practice of Naturopathy and Western Herbal Medicine and its historical influences.

A THREAD 🧵

Most if not, all believe that medicine for the western culture really started to structuralize once Greek Philosopher Hippocrates got involved. He developed the Hippocratic school of medicine which laid the foundation for health practices today.

The concepts were to look at the whole person, find the root cause and treat it through natural means.Most if not, all believe that medicine for the western culture really started to structuralize once Greek Philosopher Hippocrates got involved.

After searching about the rich history for natural doctors in North America you began to realize there has been a long battle between allopathic and natural doctors.

Unfortunately up until recently allopathic doctors had much of the government, laws, and legislation in their favour, creating for NDs to go through a very dark period where they had to encounter harassment, and undeserving persecutions.

Dr John Scheel has been deemed the man to coin the term naturopathy to characterize his health care methods and save natural way of healing.

He was in charge of a hydrotherapy school, and it was at a time when the practice was being scrutinized by the government which was building a frowned upon opinion by the public. These pioneers lead by Scheel pushed forward because they understood the importance of this

professional practice and how its formation required an identity for its unique modalities and theories, they wanted to bring a desire and sense of trust to a new kind of medicine in the face of all the mounting hates and threats.

Benedict Lust German Born father of naturopathy, bought the word in 1907 with his German born wife Aloysia Stroebele Lust.

He was originally sent to America as a missionary to bring hydrotherapy he developed both the American school of Naturopathy in New York in 1902 & the American Naturopathic association in 1919 which is the first time Naturopathy was looked at as a licenced profession.

Nevertheless, the naturopathic revolution was put to a halt in the early 1900s lead by Rockefeller, funded by Andre Carnage promoted to the universities and medical centres by Abraham Flexner.

The Flexner report was developed through promote and the significance around the understanding of patenting molecule through to use as “medicine”.

Using Rockers oil to discovery and develop the power of patenting a molecule to distribute, this was the beginning of the profit driven model we see today by the pharmaceutical companies. They devised a plan to manipulate the science they had developed to create so it to seem

that the science proved our bodies healed best through pills rather than nature which had no viable science or evidence that it was effective, breaking us down to chemicals and disconnecting us from our number one source of vitality, our spiritual sense with our the mother of

all, mother nature.
Allopathic medicine started to dominate and those in powers main goal at the start was to bring the perspective that natural science wasn’t really science as it couldn’t be proven through patented molecules so thus its understandings weren’t a suitable

agent for healing they instead create a fear for nature, cue in our the demonizing of mushrooms and herbs. We are so passive to these ailments, but sugar seems so normal.
It is really such a shame, because of all the beautiful work done by the many individuals before us

displaying the power within nature, naturopathy truly was at a peak interest until this Flexner report in 1910 when the pharmaceutical industry and government became involved with one another, our ancestral way of living was much more in tune with natural and truly if it wasn’t

for that symbiotic relationship, we may have never actually ever build the ability or awareness to understand how to leave if not for her inspirations and teachings.
However.

this lasted until the 1960s which was when there was a growing public understanding of the importance of nutrition led movement and a rise in the respect towards complementary and alternative medicine.

Credible research surrounding the naturopathic profession needed to arise and thus it did and the first new naturopathy medical school began in 1978 and the first authorized degrees we produced within a decade. Now recently in 1990 the NIH the national institute of health as

well as the national cancer institute, validated much of the diet that is found in many of early naturopathic readings that discuss nutrition at length and talk about the reduction of process food and the importance of including whole foods in order to prevent measures of

degenerative diseases.
