What you need to know about Naturopathic Medicine
Have you ever wished that there was a medical doctor that was well-versed in natural healthcare? If so, Naturopathic Medicine is the type of health care you have been looking for. Many people are surprised to hear that there exist medically-trained professionals that are also experts in natural healing. Naturopathic Doctors are the true bridge between scientific modern medicine and the ancient wisdom of natural healing.
Caution: The majority of practitioners that are naturopaths or call themselves Naturopathic Doctors are not medically-trained. Naturopathy is the only profession where two completely different types of practitioners use similar names, causing confusion for many seeking alternative healthcare.
Medically-trained NDs are educated similar to MDs and DOs, and are trained to be primary care physicians, while nonmedically-trained naturopaths receive very little education with no pre-med bachelor degree requirement, no medical training, and no physical medicine, acupuncture, minor surgery, etc. as do medically-trained NDs. At a minimum, medically-trained Naturopathic Doctors must be educated and trained to the level of an M.D. in order to receive a License to Practice Medicine and be recognized as a Physician, regardless of the state.

The Arvigo Techniques of
Maya Abdominal Therapy™
Self Care Training, Level 1
March 28-30, 2014 Tempe, AZ

A Time of Discovery... Join us for a nurturing retreat to discover the ‘why’ and ‘how’ to support your own digestive and reproductive organs by using an ancient therapeutic technique that gently guides them back into proper placement. Through this therapy we restore the proper flows of blood, lymph, nerve impulses and energy throughout the belly. As a side effect, a variety of organ displacement symptoms can be helped. Of particular emphasis in this tradition is the placement of the uterus, which can ‘wander’ in the pelvis throughout a woman’s life, contributing to female issues such as painful menses, bladder incontinence, PMS, infertility, painful intercourse, and difficult menopause. Other symptoms of organ displacement include low back pain, constipation, indigestion and digestive disorders such as IBS, benign swollen prostate, and low energy (to name a few). These techniques can also help normalize post-surgical scar tissue discomfort that can result from surgery (e.g.: hysterectomy). This approach to belly vitality is gentle, non-invasive, external, and easy to learn for yourself. I invite you to discover what it can do for you.
This 2½ - day course covers anatomy and physiology of the abdominal and reproductive organs, addresses causes and symptoms of mal-positioned organs and demonstrates self-care techniques. The class is beneficial for both women and men. Self Care also addresses herbal, nutritional, spiritual and emotional support for these therapeutic techniques to ensure comprehensive understanding of the modality and how it contributes to wellness. CEU’s are available for midwives, massage therapists, and acupuncturists.
Registration can be completed online through the Arvigo Institute, at www.arvigotherapy.com. This course is for self care only; it does not teach clinical applications. It is a prerequisite for advancement to Professional Care Training, Level 2. Tuition is $425 unless you register for the early bird price ($360). Early registration dates are listed under this course at www.arvigotherapy.com. A non-refundable deposit of $100 is due at the time of registration.

Cold or flu got to you? What if I were to tell you that colds, flus, and fevers were actually good for you?
Dr. Caravone is holding a cold and flu class to help you through the winter… and beyond.
Learn how to take care of yourself throughout the cold and flu season in ways that are body-strengthening and immune-building. If you follow protocols that work with the body's natural responses rather than against them, you may not only prevent future health concerns, but you will feel better faster!
In this class, you will learn how to get over the cold and flu quicker, with less discomfort, all while improving your long-term health. Naturopathic Medicine is exceptional in treating colds and flus – when done properly.
Did you know that getting a cold and/or flu is an opportunity for the body to clean itself?
Getting sick with a cold or flu is a detoxification reaction that has the ability to strengthen your immune system like nothing else can. When we take medications that suppress our fever, we are actually impairing our immune system function and worsening our health. Suppressing your body’s natural immune response year after year increases the chances of acquiring serious diseases in the future and ensuring your flus and colds will increase in frequency and worsen in intensity over the years.
Mucus is your friend.
Mucus is produced in order to rid the body of bacteria, viruses, and other illness-producing contaminants. Taking medications that shut down your mucus production keeps the bad stuff in your body. How can we stay healthy with these bad “bugs” stuck in us? Where do they go and how do they affect us?
You can take control of your own health, save money, avoid current and future serious medical conditions, and feel empowered in taking care of yourself!
This class is intended for:
· parents who want to enhance their children’s fragile immune systems
· people whose cold/flu goes straight to their lungs
· those who get frequent colds/flus
· people with chronic disease or frequent infections
· anyone who wants to treat (and avoid) colds and flus in a more effective way
