How We Can Help
Your Health is Our Business
Allergies
Allergy symptoms occur when your body’s immune system overreacts to a normally harmless substance (food, pollens, grasses and dust). The body mistakenly interprets the allergen —the dust or food— as a threat to the body and mounts a strong immune defense against it known as a hypersensitivity reaction. It’s a sign of an over-reactive immune system and that something is out of balance in the body.
Autoimmune Disorder
Autoimmune Disorders happen when the body’s natural defense system can’t tell the difference between your own cells and foreign cells, causing the body to mistakenly attack normal cells. We treat a wide range of autoimmune conditions affecting a huge breadth of body parts, including Thyroid problems, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Reynaud’s and Psoriasis.
Brain Health
Naturopathic Medicine deals with many brain health issues including brain tumours, epilepsy, chronic headaches, poor memory and dementia. All brain health problems can be the result of another condition and we can help you identify the root cause of the issues.
Digestive Health
Through a number of different treatment options including diet changes and allergy testing, your Naturopathic Physician can help you overcome a wide range of digestive health concerns including IBS, Crohn’s Disease and Leaky Gut Syndrome.
Emotional Wellbeing
The body and the mind are undeniably connected. Your Naturopathic Physician will work with you to create a holistic plan - focusing on nutrition, stress management and any other treatment options available - that will treat any imbalances in the body in order to improve your emotional health.
Fatigue
Fatigue is an overwhelming feeling of exhaustion that, at times, can be solved with rest however, sometimes this isn’t the solution. When fatigue is combined with other symptoms it can be even more difficult to treat. Your Naturopathic Physician can help you heal by identifying the reason you are feeling acutely tired and effectively addressing it.
Fertility
Knowing that every case is different, Naturopathic Physicians are trained to help you navigate through the world of reproductive medicine by prescribing you with a mix of treatments that are right for your individual needs leading to a higher chance of successful conception.
General Health Support
A Naturopathic Physician’s focus will always be on building strong foundations for your overall health and wellbeing by making sure that you are the healthiest you can be through a multitude of different treatments and approaches.
Hormone Support
Hormones are chemical messengers produced in the body that have specific effects on other cells and organs so any imbalance in them can have an impact on many facets of your health including fertility, menstrual irregularities, menopause and libido. Your Naturopathic Physician can help with the balancing of all hormone systems within the body.
Heavy Metal Detox
An accumulation in your tissues of heavy metals, like mercury, lead and uranium, from our environment can impact your physical health. Initially, we will determine if the level of heavy metal in your body is impacting you physically and if it is, we will build a safe and effective plan to remove the toxic metals from your system.
Pain Management
Chronic pain, whether it be sports injuries, chronic headaches or a motor vehicle accident, can be debilitating. Our treatment begins with identifying the root cause of your pain. Once that is identified we will pick the most effective path from the variety of pain modalities we use, all of which are part of a whole body approach to provide long lasting pain relief.
Thyroid Issues
Your thyroid controls many of your body’s functions. An over or underactive thyroid can cause many issues throughout the body including fatigue, depression, hair loss, headaches, unexplained weight gain or loss, anxiety, decreased memory or concentration, among many others.
Naturopathic Physicians can evaluate and treat a dysfunctional thyroid by doing a complete blood test, identifying the root cause of your issues and offering treatment that will help relieve your symptoms.
Sleep Support
Naturopathic Physicians are trained to identify and treat the underlying cause of sleep issues, which can range from nutrition, microbiome imbalance, your environment and emotional or physical stressors. The treatment chosen will depend on the cause they identify and could range from lifestyle changes to addressing a microbiome imbalance.
