AccuDoc, an urgent care clinic with 3 locations serving the Indiana and Ohio areas is promoting natural medicine treatment in its facilities through the services of Dr. Trent Austin. Dr. Austin, a Batesville IN resident, is an internal medicine physician with over 14 years of experience.

“I am passionate about helping patients support their health with natural options for chronic illnesses,” Dr. Austin stated in the Natural Medicine page of the AccuDoc Urgent Care website.

Natural medicine can also be referred to as naturopathy; it is a form of alternative medicine which involves homeopathy, herbalism, acupuncture, diet and lifestyle counseling, and more. It is part of the natural options for health care umbrella.

Natural medicine systems aim to incorporate gentle therapeutic techniques involving the body, mind, and emotions to aid the healing process. They also focus on each patient as an individual and treating the whole person, instead of concentrating on a particular area or the patient’s ailment. It is believed that muscles, bones, and nerves are interconnected, therefore when structures of the body system are aligned; the body can function optimally and support self-healing.

Natural medicine practitioners will make a conscious effort to avoid using methods which suppress symptoms, as the aim is for the body to restore its inner balance and heal itself. Practitioners also have a role to teach; by educating and empowering their patients, patients can take more responsibility for their well-being and adopt a healthier lifestyle and attitude. Another essential principle of naturopathic medicine is the prevention of ill health; this can be done through both teaching and patient counseling.

People who practice natural medicine are known as naturopathic doctors, many of these practitioners will have obtained professional qualifications and have passed an examination to receive a license. In addition to this, these healthcare practitioners must continue updating their knowledge annually to keep up to date with medical advancements.

Some of the chronic illness care that natural medicine is a part of and can be used for as treatment include the following: High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol, Diabetes, Dementia, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Auto-Immune Disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Joint Pain, Fatigue, Multiple Sclerosis, Reflux Disease, Hormone Issues, and Depression.
