Clinical Naturopathy: In Practice

In our efforts to improve and modernise our seminal naturopathic text Clinical Naturopathy: An Evidence-Based Guide to Practice , we sought feedback from a variety of sources"”including naturopathic students, naturopathic practitioners and lecturers within naturopathic programs in Australia and overseas. During these consultations the place of case studies repeatedly came up, in particular their importance in contextualising theoretical and 'evidence-based' information. The purpose of this text, therefore, is to recognise this importance and complexity of case studies and to 'unshackle' them from their supplementary role, developing them as important learning tools in their own right.
