"Naturopathy changes lives. You can feel better than you have felt in years while also preventing disease. Many doctors focus on treating symptoms and not searching for the root causes of disease. They often don’t focus on improving quality of life and only minimally discuss disease prevention. That’s not how we practice. Feeling good is the natural outpouring of internal health and wellbeing. We will teach you how to tap into that state of well being. We create individualized treatment plans tailored to your needs. Our knowledge of natural treatment strategies is comprehensive. Herbs, supplements, nutrition, mind/body medicine, hydrotherapy, physical medicine, and so much more are all in our wheelhouse. Having such a wide range of treatment tools at our disposal maximizes your chances of getting better. You will learn how to use these tools in the most effective way possible and you will avoid the inevitable pitfalls that occur when people try to self-treat. If a higher level of intervention is needed, we can prescribe pharmaceutical medicines when necessary such as antibiotics, pain killers, birth control, hormones and blood pressure medication. Being able to prescribed medications means we can de-prescribe medications too! Imagine having more energy and less pain while on fewer medications. That’s a story many of our patients will tell you! Prevention is a cornerstone of our practice. You can age gracefully. Many people go into retirement with a financial plan but without a wellness plan. You should enjoy the golden years of your life with your health intact. Let us teach you what it takes to be healthy in the long run."
