「自然醫學(Physical Medicine)」講求的是善用「人體的自律功能」。
Natural medicine, also known as Physical Medicine, emphasizes the effective use of the body’s self-regulatory functions.
人體的細胞組織有其先天的自癒本能，只要我們對細胞的生態環境善加維護，並充分的供給它必須的營養和條件，它就會自行調理和痊癒。 凡是採用天然或物理性的(非化學性、肅殺或抑制)方式進行治療調理的都可統稱為「自然醫學」。如：草本植物、針灸、刮痧、拔罐、溫泉、氣功、遠紅外線、磁波、低周波……甚至精油芳療等等皆是。
The cells and tissues of the human body possess an innate ability for self-healing.
As long as we properly maintain the cellular environment and provide sufficient nutrients and necessary conditions, the body can naturally regulate and heal itself.
Any therapeutic or regulatory method that utilizes natural or physical means — rather than chemical, destructive, or suppressive approaches — can be collectively referred to as natural medicine.
Examples include the use of herbal plants, acupuncture, gua sha (scraping therapy), cupping therapy, hot springs, qigong, far-infrared therapy, magnetic field therapy, low-frequency therapy, and even aromatherapy with essential oils.
