Patience Sangwa is a board-certified naturopath with the Allied Health Professionals of South Africa. She completed her BCM in Naturopathy, shortly after obtaining a BSc in Complementary Health Sciences. A great component of her training included practical experience in a clinic in South Africa.
Patience is passionate about empowering people to constantly move in the direction of health. At the core of this is her understanding of the dynamic relationship between the mind, body and spirit. She also believes that the health of each organ system depends on the health of other organ systems. In the same way, the health of an individual is connected to multiple factors outside of the individual. When diseases occur, it is often a challenge for people to unearth the root cause because multiple systems become imbalanced.
As a naturopath, Patience investigates the hindrances to people's well-being and enables them to get closer to their health goals. This is done through addressing nutrition, mental health, sleep practices, physical activity, and various lifestyle habits. As humans, we can be subjected to various forms of distress but thankfully, we have the ability overcome them.
