“Vitalism is a central tenet in the philosophy of naturopathic medicine. Vitalism, or vital force describes the intelligence that animates each and every person and it refers to forces beyond the physical self that govern life, health and healing. Vitalism postulates that there is a self-organizing principle within all life (some say within all matter). The vital force is an invisible power which is discernable only from its effects. The concept vital force dominated philosophy and scientific exploration prior to the 17th Century. It postulates that life and its forms (morphology) develop out of, and under the influence of, an all pervading, unseen force, beyond the material substance. Vitalism is called by many different names, including life force, breath, chi, qi, ki, prana, and mana, depending upon the particular culture or tradition. Vitalism is also associated with concepts of personal essence, spirit or soul.”

Hering’s

 

“VIII. Naturopathic Theory: Hering’s Law of Cure. Origin. The theory of Hering’s Law of Cure is the second law of cure in Homeopathy. The first being similia similibus curantur, or ‘like cures like’. Description. Hering’s Law of centripetal evolution affirms that the genuine disease always evolves from the periphery to the center, from the outside to the inside, from the bottom up (in the framework of an apparatus or a system organic); Hering Law outlines the direction of cure, which proceeds in the opposite direction, and is as follows: the cure must proceed from center to circumference, from above downward, from within outwards, from more important to less important organs, and, from the head to the hands and feet. The belief is that symptoms which follow this path remain away permanently. That is, symptoms which disappear in the reverse order of their coming are removed permanently.”

“Corpus Hippocraticum linked the four-element philosophy to the four body liquids referred to as humors: the air element was associated with blood; fire was considered yellow bile; earth was considered black bile and water the element of phlegm. They further explained that each of the 4 humors has its origins in a certain organ: blood belongs to the heart; yellow bile to the liver; black bile to the spleen and phlegm to the brain. Everybody’s liquid is then related to other organic systems and concepts of health and disease: 1. Blood: heart, blood circulation, venous disorders, anemia, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory tract 2. Yellow bile: liver, gall bladder, muscle and skeletal system, inflammations, hyperacidity, irritations of skin and mucous membranes. 3. Black bile: spleen, nerve system, spleen, degenerations, diathesis of dryness and hardness, stones, intoxications. 4. Phlegm: brain, digestive system, lymph system, immune system, kidneys, water retention, lymph stagnation.”

Emunctories

 

“X. Naturopathic Theory: Emunctory Theory. Origin. The theory of emunctories outlines that in order to initiate health you first need to eliminate the toxic substances stored in the body by stimulating the emunctory pathways.”

 

 

“WNF White Paper: Naturopathic Philosophies, Principles and Theories” (2017)

 

Hausser, Lloyd, Yanez, Cottingham, Turner, Abascal

 

 

"The emunctory theory states that proper elimination of toxins is essential to overall health. Eliminating toxins is often the first required treatment focus, especially for chronic disease. Elimination of toxins assists vitality and its corollary; lack of elimination blocks vitality or vital force. The primary emunctory pathways include the lungs (breath), kidneys (urine), bowels (stool), skin (sweating). Menses/ejaculation and voice (speaking). Secondary emunctory pathways include all other ways that the body excretes toxins include nasal discharge, eye discharge, skin eruptions, etc. Part of the naturopathic assessment involves determining the effectiveness of the emunctory pathways."
