We
believe that the path to health involves not only physical but
also mental, spiritual, emotional and social aspects of one’s
being. Each individual has an innate healing potential, expressed
as a Vital Force, which must be encouraged, not blocked or suppressed.
This is the philosophy of Dr
David Nye, a registered General Practitioner,
Homeopath and Acupuncturist, and of Dr
Sandi Nye, a registered Naturopath. We both practise
Integrative Medicine
to optimise treatment in difficult and complex dis-ease situations
at the Greenhouse Holistic Health Care Centre in Observatory,
Cape Town.
We believe that you, the patient, need to take
responsibility for your health, whereas we are here to guide
and assist you in that quest. It is not our aim to dictate but
to form a team with you to negotiate and plan how best to achieve
optimum health.
This is the essence of an HOLISTIC approach
to health.
Those suffering with Chronic
Disease know that it is a journey with many ups
and downs, many hopes and disappointments. There may be genetic
factors involved, which are beyond your control. There are often
many obstacles in the way, which hinder cure. Conventional medicine
seldom offers a cure for chronic disease; but it can be life
saving in acute emergencies and acute disease. Complementary
and Alternative medical approaches are needed to address the
complex problems in chronic disease, and to bring about energetic
balance which restores the body to self-regulatory optimal function.
Together, we need to:
* Identify and remove the obstacles
to cure
* Identify and avoid allergens
* Support the organs of the body
* Modulate the immune system
* Assist the Vital Force to restore health
Treatment of chronic disease is very complex
and it is important to follow a structured program.
* At the outset, an analysis of one’s voice with VoiceBio
can provide a clear indication of which organs are struggling,
thus guiding treatment.
* Nutritional therapy is used to address deficiencies or excesses.
* Lifestyle errors must be corrected as these can present significant
obstacles to cure.
* If indicated, challenge testing for heavy metal toxicity can
be performed. Chelation
therapy is based on the results of the test, and
is the most effective way of ridding the body of toxic metals.
* Most adults with chronic disease have developed a leaky
gut, which needs to be repaired with Regulation
therapy. This is achieved with Herbs
and other natural medicines.
* Electro-Dermal
Screening and Biofeedback with the aid of the
Quantum SCIO
computerised stress testing is useful in identifying and treating
stresses and stressors impacting on the body.
* The patient may at any stage opt to pursue a Naturopathic
approach, or a Homeopathic
constitutional treatment.
Each person with his/her dis-ease is very individual, thus the
above schedule is merely a guide, as the path of healing is
different for everyone.
In addition to those already mentioned above,
a variety of other treatments are offered at the Greenhouse:
*For muscular or joint injuries, chronic headaches,
or sinusitis, acupuncture
treatment with laser or needles can be very effective.
A very effective treatment for many conditions, called Biopuncture,
involves injecting Homotox preparations into acupuncture or
trigger points.
* Emotional upsets or imbalances can very safely
and quickly be helped with Flower
Essences, which are made up into a prescription
bottle, to be taken by mouth.
* Rife
Resonator therapy is another modality used, which
has proved very useful in viral, fungal or parasitic invasions.
* B.E.M.E.R.
therapy employs rapidly pulsating electro-magnetic currents
to assist healing.
* Ozone Therapy
is an efficient intravenous method of boosting the immune system.
* Aromatic
Medicine is the exciting scientific development
of Aromatherapy, using essential oils internally and externally
to treat illness.
Please inform our office if there are any therapies
that you prefer, or wish to avoid.
