The naturopath approach to weight loss and detoxification is focused on not just diet and exercise, but also on treating possible underlying causes, such as hormonal imbalances or nutrient deficiencies.

Every treatment plan is unique, just like every individual. I look at the whole of you to evaluate what needs to be done to help you live longer, and better. Some of the methods iI use are:
What works for one, might not work for another, which could also be said about diets. Let me work with you to discover what your body needs, so you can look and feel better.
Exercise is an important part of weight loss, however it isn’t always easy to follow a strict exercise regime or sneak off to the gym. I take into account lifestyle factors and habits to create a plan that works for you.
Depending on your health goal, I will run various lab tests to establish a benchmark so we can prevent chronic diseases.
Hormones control a large amount of functions in the human body. When they’re in sync, we feel good, when they’re out of sync, it can impact us significantly.
Some symptoms of hormone imbalance can include hot flashes, anxiety, memory loss, loss of drive, difficulty with fertility, osteoporosis and more.
If you’re experiencing any of these, I can help you figure out what’s going on, and treat the underlying issue.
Testing for food allergies or sensitivities can help us determine if you’re body is experiencing a reaction to certain foods. Not all allergic reactions are immediate, some reactions can be delayed and cause symptoms such as bloating, inflammation, gas, and more.
Lets get to the root of the cause and find out what’s really going on with your body.
B12 is an important vitamin which is naturally produced by our gut bacteria. Our body needs it to create energy, and without it, you can end up feeling tired and unwell.
Some people have issues properly absorbing B12, and so injections may be the only solution.
Symptoms of low B12 can include: anxiety, confusion, chronic fatigue, low energy, weight gain, menstrual difficulties, dizziness and more. Unsure? contact me today and we’ll figure it out together.
I use medicinal plants and extracts in order to support health & wellness, as well as to prevent and treat acute/ chronic illnesses. Depending on the concern, medicine may be topical or internal.
My clients mean the world to me, and I will do whatever it takes to ensure you leave feeling better than when you arrived.

A licensed Naturopathic Doctor has studied for 4 years at a naturopathic medical school. Studies include herbal medicine, homeopathy, nutrition and more.
I will take a comprehensive review of your medical history as well as any current issues. We will go over your goals and concerns and discuss your lifestyle and habits. Your first visit may involve a physical exam as well as standard diagnostic and/or laboratory tests.
Many of my patients come to me for 3 main reasons: I focus on prevention, rather than just treatment; I am a legitimate alternative to surgery or side-effect causing drugs; and finally, because I may be able to help them where orthodox medicine has failed.
You’re stuck, overwhelmed, and tired, and you need help finding your way forward.
