Naturopathy

Naturopathic Medical Services

 As a naturopathic doctor, I look at the whole person, not just the diagnosis.  I take a thorough history and perform an extensive physical exam.  I may recommend further tests like blood work.   As these pieces of information come together, I work with the patient to create a treatment plan tailored to the individual person and designed to get at the root cause of the problem.  The natural treatments I use include clinical nutrition, herbal medicine, homeopathy, acupuncture, hydrotherapy, and lifestyle couselling.   Follow up visitis are used to make sure the plan is working and the person’s health improves, helping them achieve wellness and full participation in their activities.

Naturopathic Medicine for Children’s Health

Naturopathic medicine can be effective for children.  Common childhood problems such as recurrent infections, allergies, asthma, eczema, and constipation respond well to naturopathic medicine.  Less common issues such as ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, fetal alcohol syndrome, ODD, and congenital problems can also be addressed using naturopathic therapies.
