The Healers Café

Hi, it's Manon Bolliger (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) and I want to welcome you to the Healers Cafe. I am so excited to be doing this series of interviews and what I'll be doing is, is asking all kinds of healthcare practitioners, doctors, healers of all types, to really share with all of you their experience, why they became healers, what called them what they think about this being a healer thing. Is it, a thing? Who's really healing in this, what they've experienced from their their interaction with clients and patients and what the takeaways and understanding of what the process of healing is all about and the process of life. So that's the essence of what I'm doing. I'm hoping that this will serve also for patients that have issues and are looking for different ways of approaching it. * De-Registered, revoked & retired after 30+ years of practice. Now resourceful & resolved to share with you all the tools to take care of your health & vitality!

In this episode of The Healers Café, Dr. Manon chats with Dr. Romi Fung, ND.  Highlights from this episode include:

 

Dr Romi Fung (08:53):

 It's how we apply what naturopathic modalities and naturopathic principles there are but naturopathy is the use of, as it states natural or natural substances in supporting the body's own innate ability to heal. And under naturopathy or naturopathic medicine, there are principles that we abide by and that's what we call the naturopathic oath. So being first do no harm That whatever we provide, we assess for the risk of harm and making sure that whatever we suggest has the most minimal of harm possible. And then others involving, treating the root cause, doctor as teacher, which I'm very big on and so forth. And amongst naturopathic medicine, there are modalities that we utilize. So with physicians, conventional physicians and conventional medicine utilizing more so pharmaceuticals, even though naturopathic doctors are trained in the pharmaceuticals, we also utilize nutrition and physical medicine, counseling techniques, homeopathy. What else am I missing? Botanicals. Botanicals. Yeah. And so, and, and lifestyle because that's what we have to focus on in regards to focusing on the simplest, but also the foundations of our health. The pillars of our health.

Dr Romi Fung (21:12):

But this patient came in and literally within minutes of our consultation she bursted out in tears. She was going through a lot of stress, especially with family and she didn't know how to handle it. And she felt almost helpless. And for 30 minutes we talked about it. I thought it would give her the space for her to be heard. And for me to really understand like this is probably the important part, that I probably play a role more so than most other practitioners is allowing myself to be in the shoes of my patients.

Dr Romi Fung (21:58):

I'm trying to figure out what's really happening. And I thought to myself, you know, I had a bit of extra time. She's expressed a lot and she felt as though we can definitely do something, but I really felt like I couldn't leave her at that point. I was afraid or I was scared that she would potentially harm herself. And even though we have instances where we can contact professionals to make sure that they're properly addressed, I needed to do something that would get to her immediately. And that's when I said to her, let's get you on the table. I'm going to do a quick session on you. I'm going to do something called Bowen therapy. And we got to it. And I did the basic moves aims one, two, and three. And by the end of it, I looked at her and I looked at her face, she looked a lot more focused, and then she looked at me and she was like, I've never felt this clear before in like the past few months.

Dr Romi Fung (23:08):

And then she started tearing again. But then she told me that this is not because I'm sad, but these are tears of joy. And so it was from that moment then we decided, you know, let's get a plan going. And that's when I decided to add in the the naturopathic elements, making the nutritional work and lifestyle. But, and I mean I liked Bowen therapy as a standalone treatment as well as a combination because it's so complimentary. But by putting them together, you don't really know which one works and which one does it.
