Naturopathic medicine incorporates traditional wisdom and modern scientific methods in disease diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Naturopathic doctors view the person as an integral whole mechanism, where symptoms of illness are seen as signals reflecting the overall health of the individual in all areas of mind body and spirit. Therefore the primary goal of a naturopathic doctor is to address the underlying causes of illness rather than simply suppressing the outward symptoms. Naturopathic medicine emphasizes six basic principles:
■First, do no harm
■Respect the healing power of nature
■Identify and treat the causes of illness
■Treat the whole person
■Doctor is also teacher
■Prevention is the best medicine
Naturally Ageless Wellness Center give the Glory to God for giving us the opportunity of apply Gail’s God given gift of healing to the practicing of naturopathic medicine to help those that have had little or limited results from modern medical treatments in dealing with a variety of today’s health issues that can be treated with natural remedies and lifestyle counseling to help the individual and community as a whole.

Services
Acupresure
Used for thousands of years in China, acupressure applies the same principles as acupuncture to aid relaxation and wellness and to treat disease. Sometimes called pressure acupuncture, acupressure is often thought of as simply acupuncture without the needles.
Botanical Medicine
Botanical medicines are effective and safe when used properly, in the right dose and in the proper combinations with other herbs or treatments. A resurgence of scientific research in Europe, Asia and the United States is demonstrating that some plant substances are superior to synthetic drugs in clinical situations.
Family Health Care
Dr. Gail Ravello is a primary care doctor who strictly uses natural medicine in her practice. She treats the whole family using nutrition, vitamins and supplements, homeopathy, botanical medicine and natural hormone therapy. Naturopathic medicine is safe for infants and during pregnancy. Please see commonly treated conditions.
Homeopathic Medicine
This powerful system of medicine is more than 200 years old, and is widely accepted in other countries (The Royal Family of England uses a homeopathic physician.). Homeopathic medicines act to strengthen the body’s innate immune response; they seldom have side effects. Some conditions that conventional medicine has no effective treatment for respond well to homeopathy.
Physical Medicine.
Physical medicine includes physiotherapy, using heat and cold, gentle electrical pulses, ultrasound, diathermy, hydrotherapy , exercise therapy, Craniosacral therapy and manipulation.
Clinical Nutrition
A growing body of scientific knowledge in this area is reflected in numerous professional journals of nutrition and dietary sciences, validating the naturopathic approach to diet and nutrition. Many medical conditions can be treated as effectively with foods and nutritional supplements as they can by any other means, but with fewer complications and side effects. Naturopathic physicians receive more than 140 classroom hours in clinical nutrition; most medical doctors receive fewer than 20 hours.
Counseling and Stress Management
Mental attitudes and emotional states can be important elements in healing and disease. Naturopathic physicians are trained in various psychological techniques including counseling, nutritional balancing, stress management and biofeedback.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy is a technique that releases tightened, constricted tissue. It is among the gentlest of the bodywork therapies. It is unlike chiropractic manipulation in that there is no jolting of the body. Craniosacral therapy also holds an adjustment longer than chiropractic manipulation. Many clients get the results they need in three sessions. Others have the treatment done weekly for several months. What is Craniosacral?
