About Naturopathy
We Cardinal Padiyara Nature Cure and Yogashram,
located at Kusumagiri, Ernakulam, Kerala, is dedicated for providing non-surgical treatments for many ailments which can not be cured easily.
We would like to state at the outset that it is not about us that we have to say but ABOUT YOU…
So allow us to begin with what many of you have shared with Nature Life International over the past few years that justify our presence in Kerala.
"I am a 51 year old with 100 kg body weight. I underwent angioplasty 3 years back and have been diagnosed with border stage of Diabetes and also blood pressure".
"I am a 35 year old with 135 kg body weight and high cholesterol. I am a person who has been suffering from BP and blood sugar. I have been on medication for the past few years".
"I am a 40 year old using glucophage and diamicron tablets with a blood sugar level 200-250".
Many of the above statements may sound familiar to you and you could perhaps identify with them as either you yourself or some close is undergoing discomfort on account of the condition.
A close examination of the above most commonly stated information from many shows that many would like to reduce or lessen some factor in the body that has taken away their health- it could be to reduce body weight, blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol or to address specific problems like allergy, cancer, arthritis and so on. There are many who would like to be free of medical intervention and lead a life that is close to normal.
It is our observations, concern and experiences with isolated encounters with the public in Kerala with problems and distressing situations like the above said that made us start an attempt like the Nature Life International Movement. While attempting to address and handle the situation by channelizing the healing power of the human body we also came across the miraculous changes that would accompany when chemical intervention is phased out or stopped. It also became obvious that many of the conditions are caused by what we eat- either too much or the wrong food at the wrong time and the wrong reason. It was also clear that a slight change in life style along with attitudes would usher in fresh energy, healing and happiness and comfort to the body and mind. This also revealed the use; overuse and misuse of chemicals in the name of medicines would delay the healing and most often lead to new ailments and an incurable state.
The basis of Nature Life International
The movement Nature Life International started as a small seed in the South Indian State of Kerala in 1998. There are 2 major guiding principles behind this:
Nature sustains all life as it provides energy, water, air and the base for sustenance and survival. She is the originator of a healthy, happy and a peaceful life. It is this most simple fact that is the idea behind Nature Cure.
This medical system of curing the human body using the basic powers of Nature dates back to aeons. A tribal woman who uses the sun’s energy to heal her fever, a Chinese elder who gives a wet pack on the stomach to relieve an ache have all resorted to the most powerful philosophy of Nature Cure.
The power of Nature Cure lies in the experience and trust that it places on the innate strength of the body to correct itself. The body wants to be in a state of equilibrium and harmony. It always attempts to correct itself using the simple yet most effective support of air, water, soil, sun and food. The body tries to get back to Health and not stay in a state of discomfort and uneasiness. Any attempt to not respect this and use artificial means to suppress, ignore and overstep this vital healing process will result in more disarray and disorder.

Our Treatments
Healing Means
Healing Means
Though our body has the power and strength to correct any problems and regain balance and health, there are some simple and effective means by which we can help it regain the homeostasis and balance. Naturopathy or natural healing has been utilizing the elements and factors like water, sun,earth food and exercise to assist the body/ affected body parts to correct itself. Most of this is focused on removing the toxic elements that are the root cause of the malfunction.
Diet Therapy
You are what you eat is an adage that we have heard for years. The body that makes us what we are exists so because of what is given to it in order to maintain energy and life force. So the quality of food is the most important pre-requisite to maintain health and balance. It is not only what you eat that matters but how and when you eat it too.
Natural life and naturopathy advocates the need to maintain a harmonious body in comfort and health with the intake of pure, fresh, tasty and nutritious food. It also stresses the need to take the right amount of food in the right time in the midst of pleasant and clean atmosphere. This alone will ensure that toxins will not accumulate in the body as part of food that are actually body-builders rather than breakers.
Naturopathy introduces you to the right diet chart that will address your special health problems along with long term preventive steps. Depending on the condition that is causing discomfort the naturopathy diet will range from fasting sessions, raw uncooked food, fruit/ nut diet, vegetarian diet and so on. The dos and don’ts of the diet therapy are also based on empowering the body to heal on its own.
Yoga Therapy
The need to ensure that all body organs stay in working condition and health is the need of the mind as well as the physical self. This has to be done not through rigorous exercises that strain and stress the body beyond a limit but through slow and harmonious movement s in tune with the natural breathing pattern of the system.
Yoga is the most effective and time-
Tested means by which the body can be constantly kept in a state of equilibrium and balance. It is neither a body building system nor is it a weight reduction regime. It is a scientific means of harmonizing the positive forces in the body to maximize energy flow and functions. It is also a means to stabilize the mind and set it on the path of relaxation and de-stress. Naturopathy utilizes the various levels of Yoga to address the diverse means through which the human body and mind can be healed and corrected.
Healing Therapies
Naturopathy has created a regime for healing with the help of water, sun ,earth and so on.
Hydrotherapy
The HYDROTHERAPY method where water is used to heal the affected part has been proven effective especially in correction of localized inflammations and pain. Spinal bath, hip bath, wet girdle are special treatments fo r inflammations . Eye, nose wash and gargling help to remove toxins, dust and discomfort in these sensitive areas.
Mud Therapy
The capacity of mud in healing has been known from time immemorial. The mud packs in various areas of the body will help absorb ailments especially of the skin and also relieve pain and strain. Knee pack, neck pack and so on are some of the commonly used mud packs.
Sun Therapy
The immense capacity of the sun to heal and strengthen the body with energy is an area that gives effectiveness to naturopathy. The exposure of affected area to the rays of the early morning sun and the evening sun will do wonders in healing certain problems. All of the above healing therapies will be suggested to the patient accompanied by a diet chart in the Nature Life Hospitals under the supervision of a trained physician. This will be done in such a way that the patient will be empowered to do it all on his/her own after a few days.
This makes the slogan COME A PATIENT, RETURN A DOCTOR practically true.
