* The structure & function of the human body is interrelated forming a single dynamic unit.
* The healthy body possesses self-regulatory mechanisms that are self-healing in nature
* Illness or injury in one part of the body can affect other parts, therefore you must treat the whole person
* Rational treatments, based on these principles, are to include all scientifically proven therapies
