The main principles of Naturopathy are as under

 1. All disease, their cause and their treatment are one. Except for traumatic and environmental conditions, the cause of all diseases is one i.e. accumulation of morbid matter in the body and their elimination from the body is treatment.

2. The primary case of disease is not bacteria or virus. Bacteria and virus enter and survive in the body only after the accumulation of morbid matter when a favourable atmosphere for their growth is established in body. Hence, the basic cause is morbid matter, not the bacteria. They are secondary cause.

3. Acute diseases are self healing effort of the body. Hence they are our friends, not the enemy. Chronic diseases are outcome of wrong treatment and suppression of the acute diseases.

4. Nature is the greatest healer. Body has a capacity to prevent itself from disease and regain health if unhealthy.

5. In Naturopathy patient is treated and not the disease..

6. Patients suffering form chronic ailments are also treated successfully in comparatively less time in Naturopathy.

7. After emerging suppressed diseases can be cured by Naturopathy.

8. Naturopathy treats physical, mental, social (moral) and spiritual all four aspects at the same time.

9. Naturopathy treats body as a whole instead of giving treatment to each organ separately.

10. Naturopathy does note use medicines. According to Naturopathy “Food is Medicine”.
