Indigenous healing practices are traditional ways of caring for health that have been passed down through generations by Indigenous communities around the world. These practices take a whole-person approach, caring for the body, mind, spirit, and community all at once. They often include using natural medicines like plants, as well as ceremonies, rituals, storytelling, and hands-on healing to bring balance and harmony back to a person’s life and their connection to the natural world.
The Naturopathy and Natural Therapies World Conference, highlights how important it is to respect cultural roots and spiritual practices, and to find thoughtful ways to blend these ancient methods with today’s medicine. This helps create care that feels more personal, respectful, and heals not just for individuals but for whole communities.
