Adults (19-64 years old)

Couple at Home

As a naturopathic doctor and the mother of 2 children it can be difficult to maintain a healthy balance between work and home life. Running a business can be very stressful and demanding, and it requires many different talents including marketing, accounting, answering phone calls and emails, social media, writing articles, health research and being a doctor.  And those of you with children will completely understand, that trying to accomplish simple tasks, like cleaning the house or going grocery shopping, can be next to impossible.  But in order for me to maintain my health and wellbeing I make it a priority to maintain a balance between work responsibilities, family responsibilities, exercise and spending time with family and friends.

 

As an adult, life can be stressful, whether you are getting an education, working full time, buying your first home, getting married, raising children or caring for an elderly family members.  If stress is left unattended for long periods of time, eventually your body can develop serious health conditions including obesity, insomnia, high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol and many other serious conditions. The best time to address stress and other symptoms is before they develop into major health concerns.  Naturopathic medicine can benefit a wide variety of health conditions using nutrition, lifestyle modifications, exercise, botanical medicines, drainage, homeopathics and acupuncture.

  • Stress

Women's Health

Women's health is constantly evolving. From the first menstrual cycle through pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause, your hormones influence nearly every aspect of your physical and emotional wellbeing. While these transitions are natural, they don't have to be accompanied by symptoms that interfere with your quality of life.

​

Hormonal imbalances can develop at any stage of life and may contribute to fatigue, mood changes, irregular cycles, headaches, weight changes, sleep disturbances, and many other concerns. Rather than simply masking symptoms, naturopathic medicine aims to identify and address the underlying factors contributing to hormonal imbalance.

​

Using a personalized approach that may include nutrition, lifestyle medicine, acupuncture, botanical medicine, and targeted supplementation, I work with women to restore balance, improve overall health, and help them feel their best through every stage of life.
