各位女士先生：大家好！
美國自然醫學研究院，創建於2004年。其宗旨是，我們要以研究與教育，推廣自然醫學，來幫助一般的老百姓 、醫生、學生來了解自然醫學真正的價值。因為，目前 在全世界，我們都知道西藥（主流醫學）雖有它存在的 價值，也有它的肯定的效果，可是卻帶給人類很多的副 作用，比如說：藥的毒副作用，不需要的開刀，以及耗 費大批的資金，大批的錢財等等。所以我們很多很多的 老百姓，我們很多的醫界朋友都了解到自然醫學的廉、 簡、便、易等特性，不但沒副作用，更能恢復與生俱來 的自然療能。我們推廣它的目的，是使人類的健康和醫 療有更恰當的自主選擇，有更好的療效。我們相信自然 醫學將是本世紀醫學發展的必然趨勢。這也就是美國自 然醫學研究院的宗旨與努力的目標。
謝謝大家！
Ladies and Gentlemen：
The American Academy of Naturopathic Medicine, Inc. was founded in 2004, with its chief mission being that of promoting natural medicine through research and education. While main-stream medicine may have its benefits, it is definitely not without its drawbacks, including, but not limited to pharmaceutical and surgical side effects and problems associated with skyrocketing medical expenses. Natural medicine is generally considered to be less expensive, gentler on the body, more convenient and with fewer side effects. As indicated by the phrase vis medicatrix naturae, or the healing power of nature, our health is ultimately healed by nature. We strongly believe that through natural medicine, people can better manage their health and have more freedom of choice in medical care, not to mention experience superior results in healing and recovery. AANM’s efforts in promulgating natural medicine lie in its firm belief that natural medicine will be the new main-stream remedy of this century.
Together, we will change for the better.
Sincerely,
Henry Woo, Ph.D.,O.M.D.,C.A.
