Naturopathy 👩🏾‍⚕️


 Why consult?

Naturopathy is an overall therapy : you come for a specific health problem and leave with your main problem and other problems solved at the same time!

 What does a consultation look like?To start, we present your vitality check-up. It takes into account your medical conditions, personal and family history, lifestyle, diet, mental and emotional state. Then, we make naturopathic recommendations to you according to the reason for your consultation and for your general health(a physical condition does not always have or does not only have a physical origin...). We could also suggest that you do some tests (intestinal dysbiosis, food intolerances, toxic metals, viruses and bacteria, etc.) to confirm/quantify our analyses. These tests are available on our online store.

After each consultation, we send you your recommendations and documentation by email.
Please note: naturopaths are not doctors so they are not qualified to make a diagnosis or any other medical act.

 I'm not comfortable in front of the cameras, can I have an email consultation?

Sure ! We can also turn off the cameras during your consultation !

I would like to consult but I have no insurance

You can claim your naturopathic consultation fees as medical expenses when doing your taxes! Keep your receipts and claim them on your next tax return to benefit from a tax reduction or an increase in your tax refund. For all tax questions, reach out to your accountant.

 Do herbal remedies really work?

As an indication, 80% of the population in Africa uses traditional medicine for their primary needs. To answer the question frankly, don't expect magic to happen on its own...Habit changes are essentials. The results can be obtained more or less quickly because they depend on several factors like your involvement, your consistency, your immune system, the degree of your condition etc.
For the record, many pharmaceutical drugs such as aspirin, quinine, taxotere, vincristine, digitalis come from or are derived from plants. Phytotherapy which is the therapeutic solution through the use of medicinal plants, was based on empirical know-how that has been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years. Thanks to scientific research, humans have been able to improve it over time. Moreover, we have made available to you some scientific studies concerning the therapeutic effects of plants. They can be downloaded from the product sheet. 

 Why choose NaturoSendey?

2- We do our part to limit the carbon footprint through our eco-responsible deliveries(on foot, by bike or in electric vehicles).

 How are your plants processed?

Our plants have been harvested by hand in under ideal weather conditions and at the optimal time. The production of our food supplements was also done in an artisanal way : harvesting the fruits by hand --> shelling --> drying --> pounding --> sieving to collect the powder. We prefer quality over quantity. To know about our values and our mission, visit Learn more about NaturoSendey.

 What is a herbal bath?

A herbal bath is a bath where the hips and pelvic region are immersed with plants while the body is in a sitting position. It can be taken in a bathtub, in a basin or in any other object where you can sit inside. Take it hot or cold according to your needs. The hot bath(yoni steam) relieves pain as well as inflammation of the genitals and other organs located in the pelvic region; it also increases blood circulation in that area. As for the cold bath, it has a tonic and fortifying action on the genitals and on the spine. Adding plants to water allows you to benefit from their properties.

 Are internal and external precautions/contraindications the same?

Yes.

 What is wet inhalation used for?Wet inhalation is used to decongest the respiratory tracts. The fact of inhaling the vapors of hot water mixed with the active principles of the plants makes it possible to clarify, take off and evacuate the excess of mucus.

Warning: the inhalation of plants is contraindicated for people with asthma and allergies.
