SERVICES
Whether it’s to maintain a vibrant, healthy lifestyle or to resolve an acute or chronic issue, I can guide you every step of the way. As Naturopathic Doctors we have the knowledge to diagnose and treat various concerns through the use of nutritional supplementation, diet and lifestyle counseling, acupuncture, botanical medicine and specialized lab testing.
FACIAL REJUVENATION & COSMETIC ACUPUNCTURE
Cosmetic acupuncture involves inserting tiny and painless needles into the facial area. Facial acupuncture stimulates collagen and elastin production while relaxing and toning facial muscles. It can be used for:
Reducing the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles
Helping to reduce the appearance of dark spots
Boosting circulation to the skin
Balancing fluids in the body
Relieving facial muscle tension which allows the skin to do its job of eliminating wastes and detoxifying
Stress relief
INTRAVENOUS (IV) THERAPY
Intravenous (IV) Vitamin Therapy is a safe and effective way to deliver high doses of vitamins, minerals and amino acids directly into the bloodstream for maximal absorption. IV therapy bypasses the digestive system, thus allowing for higher levels of nutrients to enter the cells via the bloodstream. This is especially important for people suffering from malabsorption issues, impaired gut function and for those of you who don't enjoy daily oral supplementation. Examples of some of the vitamins, minerals and amino acids used in IV therapy include Vitamin C, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Biotin, Vitamin B12, Magnesium, Calcium, Selenium, Zinc, Glutathione and Taurine. Specific formulations of combined vitamins and minerals are created depending on the person's needs. This includes but is not limited to energy, mood, immune & stress support!
VITAMIN INJECTIONS
Injecting vitamins into the muscle tissue like Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D allows for direct entry into the cells where they can be utilized by the body efficiently.  It eliminates the need for daily supplementation and gives you quicker results.
CLINICAL NUTRITION
Nutrition and the therapeutic use of foods is the cornerstone of any treatment plan with a Naturopathic Doctor. Your body needs certain nutrients in order to thrive and maintain a state of general well being. What we put into our body has a huge impact on our mood, energy, digestive system and overall health. ND’s assess your current diet to determine the nutritional status of the foods you’re eating and the likelihood of nutritional deficiencies. We then make recommendations individualized to your specific health concerns and goals to optimize your overall health.
Nutritional supplements: Supplementing may also be recommended to provide added benefit to the patient. Some benefits include: increased energy, enhanced memory, decreased overall inflammation; improve immune health, improved gastrointestinal health.
ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture involves the insertion of sterilized needles through the skin at specific points on the body that correspond to meridian systems. The stimulation of these points can unblock stagnant Qi (energy) and allow your body to regain equilibrium. Acupuncture is beneficial for a wide range of health concerns including:
Infertility
Menstrual irregularities
Chronic pain
Insomnia
Low energy
Anxiety and mood disturbances
Stress management
Headaches/Migraines
Digestive complaints
LIFESTYLE COUNSELING
It is our responsibility to help you realize the huge connection between your mind and body. ND’s work to optimize your physical, mental and emotional well-being through providing you with coping mechanisms and tools that allow you to become more conscious of your body and mind. Some of the skills we can help with are: breathing techniques, mediations, self-care practices and journaling. It is all about channeling your stress into productivity.
BOTANICAL MEDICINE
The use of plants as medicine has been used for thousands of years to treat various health conditions.  It involves the use of herbal teas, tinctures and extracts to optimize the body’s physiological function. Each herb has its own therapeutic benefit to help treat specific conditions. Naturopathic Doctors take into account indications and contraindications for each prescribed herb to ensure safe and effective treatment.
SPECIALIZEDÂ LABORATORY TESTING
Lab testing is a great way to obtain more information about your health to evaluate the missing pieces of what is happening inside the body.
Food sensitivity testing is a tool that Naturopathic doctors use to determine the underlying cause of various illnesses. Food sensitivities are delayed reactions to certain foods. This signifies a poorly functioning digestive system, which can cause other body systems to suffer as a consequence. These reactions may not show up until days later. They can result in a wide range of chronic symptoms including, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, ADHD, anxiety, irritability, arthritis, fatigue, muscle soreness, memory issues, constipation, brain fog, allergies, low energy and skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.
As well, a wide range of other testing is available depending on your specific health concerns. These include the following:​
Urine & Saliva Hormone Testing
SIBO Testing
Gut Health Testing
And much more…
