Summary |
"Most patients and practitioners recognize the link between a person's lifestyle and their health. The Energetics of Health: a naturopathic assessment teaches students and practitioners how to assess health and disease from an energetic perspective. It provides a detailed model for determining the lifestyle, environmental and external causes of disease based on a patient's subjective experience, their signs and their symptoms." "This book is a valuable tool for those looking to understand the interrelationship of the psychological, functional and structural aspects of an individual, and how internal beliefs, external and environment factors affect health."--BOOK JACKET |
