123 Welcome Our mission here at the Natural Balance Clinic is to introduce the most natural nutrition and supplements to balance the body without using medication. We believe that medication, for the most part, is not the answer for common illnesses. We believe that most diseases and illnesses happen because of the lack of healing nutrients in common food choices. We believe that medications are temporary relief of more in depth medical problems that need serious nutritional attention. We believe that healing should start from inside the body and unless we begin from inside the body, we never can treat outside symptoms because outside body pain and symptoms arise from serious internal imbalance which arise from toxins that we constantly abuse our body with, calling them "food".
