I am a naturopath and practice in an integrative wellness setup. Everyday, I often see people coming into the clinic, having Dr. Googled, knowing “what” they need to know, but not knowing where to start.

You see, it’s not always what you know, it’s about HOW you do it! For example, if you know that you want to eat fresh, organic food, but it becomes difficult if you are uncertain of what is good for your current health conditions. There are always 101 foods in your list.

Therefore, having someone on the outside tell you “these are the most important things to start with” and holding you accountable, is the shift that you have needed to help get you back to track.

Naturopath empowered health People see a Naturopath for different reasons and there is no right or wrong reason to see a naturopath. These are the 3 top reasons why someone sees a naturopath.

1) You have a condition or some symptoms which you are looking for the approach of helping your body to heal itself. By taking the right nutrients, herbal medicine and making lifestyle and dietary changes, in many cases, your body can heal. If you are looking to help heal your body, then seeing a naturopath can help point you in the right direction.

2) You’re not feeling like yourself, but all your blood tests came back as normal. When this is the case, a naturopath can often see things from a different angle. By using different diagnostic skills or testing, your naturopath may be able to help you start to feel like yourself again.

3) You want to get to a better level of health. If you are feeling like you are on the downhill slide and need to get back to a better level of health, seeing a naturopath can help you get there quickly. A naturopath can point out the most important things to address so that you get to a better level easily and quickly.

A naturopath actually is a scientifically trained practitioner who put nutrition before medication. A naturopath doesn’t have to even replace your regular medical doctor. Think of us as a second opinion, as we will show you the other side of health; natural health.
