001. JHU states in "A Career in Naturopathic Medicine":
"the six fundamental principles of naturopathic medicine [include #1] the healing power of nature [HPN]. Trust in the body’s inherent wisdom to heal itself."
Note: and that is all that is said about that! Nowhere is naturopathy's HPN context, as truly defined within naturopathy per the science-ejected concept of 'a purposeful life spirit bioagency', honestly expressed -- in JHU's entire document! So, let's illuminate the premise: because, as happens with naturopathy -- galore -- we are not being adequately informed.
002. SO states in "Naturopathy":
"the healing power of nature. Vis medicatrix naturae. [This means for naturopathy that] the body has the inherent ability to establish, maintain, and restore health. The healing process is ordered and intelligent; nature heals through the response of the life force [...per] the vitalistic tradition of medicine [...wherein] methods of treatments are chosen to work with the patient’s vital force [...aka] the body’s innate healing response [...wherein] symptoms [...] in fact [are] an expression of the life force attempting to heal itself [...and] these principles are based on the objective observation of the nature of health and disease, and are continually reexamined in light of scientific analysis."
Note: so, we get a half-truth from SO, in that HPN is basically vitalism. Yet, SO claims this concept survives scientific scrutiny, which is PROFOUNDLY not true.
003. in sum:
each institution is an accessory to naturopathy's deception, just in different ways:
occult vitalism per 001.,
absurd pseudoscience per 002.
occult vitalism per 001.,
absurd pseudoscience per 002.
