Advance Education & Promote Awareness of Traditional Complementary and Integrative Healthcare
THE FOUNDATION
Now, more than ever, we need to look after each other. Each and every one of us is living in unprecedented challenges not encountered this century. Yet, with challenge brings opportunity, and in these times of transformation, we believe now is the time for all of us to unite and heal our world together.
The SoulAdvisor Foundation is a global facilitator for the advancement of Traditional, Complementary and Integrative (TCIH) through access, education and raising public awareness of its benefits in health outcomes.
We are a 100% not-for-profit, non-government and apolitical organisation. We support conventional medicine and are committed to complementing each other. Importantly, we believe every individual is unique, and requires professional support for their wellness needs in our complex and fragmented global healthcare landscape.
Non-communicable diseases such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, stroke and lung disease continue to be the greatest killers each year across the world*. These conditions also make those affected vulnerable to other illnesses, as we are currently witnessing in the global pandemic.
With the body of evidence-based research now growing for improved health outcomes from using TCIH, our purpose is to support those touched by non-communicable diseases, as well as those wishing to prevent it.
As we are all connected, it is important that every individual is well and able to make informed choices about their health. Please join us on our journey to raise awareness of TCIH to facilitate the prevention and healing of our world.
