German term

praktisch-naturwissenschaftlicher Therapeuten

German to English Medical Medical (general) Natural medicine
The term comes from the following sentence:

"Die Beliebtheit der geräte beruht vor allem auf den Erfahrungen praktisch-naturwissenschaftlicher Therapeuten". Other times the text has referred to "natural medicine practitioners" who use medical devices on patients to help reduce pain. In this case, I image the term refers to something of a similar nature, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

Thanks in advance,

Helene

A Naturopath is a health practitioner who applies natural therapies. Her/his spectrum comprises far more than fasting, nutrition, water, and exercise; it includes approved natural healing practices such as Homeopathy, Acupuncture, and Herbal Medicine, as well as the use of modern methods like Bio-Resonance, Ozone-Therapy, and Colon Hydrotherapy. At a time when modern technology, environmental pollution, poor diet, and stress play a significant role in the degradation of health, a Naturopath’s ability to apply natural methods of healing is of considerable importance.
Frequently, a Naturopath is the last resort in a patient’s long search for health. Providing personalised care to each patient, the naturopath sees humankind as a holistic unity of body, mind, and spirit.

therapists whose work has a practical scientific basis

the work of integratively-oriented CBT therapists such as myself can be called Integrative CBT, and aims to have both a humanistic and a scientific basis.

science-based practitioners/therapists

Praktisch here probably means evidence-based. The English term 'practical' conjures up very different sets of connotations.
