| Profile |
Michael Blanch is Perth's most experienced homoeopath/naturopath, with 23 years experience in practice. He studied in Sydney and commenced practice there in 1984. On moving to Perth WA in 1990, he established Cottesloe Naturopathic Clinic and has lectured in Homoeopathy at the Perth Academy of Natural Therapies from that time. As a well-respected and experienced practitioner, over the years he has given many postgraduate seminars to his colleagues.
Michael Blanch's philosophy of treatment is based on the understanding that true health can only be achieved by working with the body's innate healing mechanisms, not against them. Unfortunately, many modern natural therapists have taken on the role of “alternative doctor”, using natural medicine that, like drugs, only treat symptoms, in that way working against what the body is trying to do and delaying or preventing ultimate cure.
As a naturopath, Michael believes that there are two means of restoring health. Firstly, on the patient’s part, adherence to natural laws: good diet, exercise, fulfilling relationships, a sense of purpose and belonging, adequate sleep, rest and stress management such as meditation. Michael Blanch is trained to assist you in the lifestyle changes necessary to maintain optimum health.
In many people, however, these changes are not enough, due to inherited weaknesses or longstanding abuse. In these cases medicine needs to be given. For true cure, this needs to be medicine that treats the whole person and removes the blocks to cure that are stopping the body from healing itself.
While trained in all areas of natural medicine, Michael Blanch finds through his experience that the only form of natural medicine that is consistently curative is homoeopathy because (a) it is prescribed on symptoms of the whole patient, emotionally and physically and (b) it is not a chemical medicine that imposes its own symptoms. It is the only system of natural medicine that works purely by balancing the whole organism and removing the blocks preventing the body’s healing.
So therefore whenever medicine needs to be given Michael Blanch chooses homoeopathy.
