Naturopathic medicine offers a customized approach to health care, where recommendations are tailored to suit individual clients.  Using a range of therapies allows me to be flexible in designing the best set of recommendations possible for you.
 
To Schedule an Appointment Online,

Clinical Nutrition
Making sure we're getting the proper amount of essential nutrients each day is so important to health. Together we can look at your diet, and find ways to modify it to promote a more healthier you. Nutritional supplements may also help to augment your diet or reduce the effects of disease.  Nutritional supplements may include vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other nutraceuticals.
 
There is some truth in the saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away."
 

 
Botanical / Herbal Medicines
With this therapy, we can use plant substances from around the world that are known for their healing effects and nutritional value. The use of plants for healing dates back to the beginnings of civilization and is the foundation of today's pharmacology.  For example, willow bark contains salicylic acid and was the basis for penicillin.
 
 
 
Homeopathy
 Using minute amounts of natural substances, we can stimulate the self-healing abilities of the body.  After a comprehensive intake, I decide upon a homeopathic remedy based on the whole person, mind & body.
 
Based on a system of medicine developed nearly 200 years ago by the German physician Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), the homeopathic principle of treating like with like is based on treating an illness with a substance that produces in a healthy person similar symptoms to those experienced by the sick person. For example, Ipecacuanha (from the root of the plant) if taken by a healthy person will cause vomiting, but if taken in tiny homeopathic doses will cure vomiting.
  
 
Craniosacral Therapy:
 A gently hands-on therapy that follows the subtle movements of your connective tissue and cranial bones. Not only is it relaxing, but this therapy allows me to assist your body in regaining normal function in many of your body systems. Craniosacral therapy is founded on the belief that the body knows exactly how to heal.  
 
 
Lifestyle Counseling:
 By empowering you with the knowledge and tools to maintain optimum health, I put the power of your health back in your hands.  Whether your goal is to lose weight or stop smoking, I can help you find a plan that will work for you.  Are you concerned about environmental toxicities?  I can provide you with information to live a cleaner, greener life.  Feeling a disconnect between your mind and body?  I can help you to reconnect with yourself and listen to the quiet voice within.
