If you’re feeling sluggish, struggling to maintain an ideal weight, lacking a healthy libido, or just aren’t feeling your best – your metabolic health should be evaluated. Your doctor will recommend appropriate testing and will design an individualized treatment plan to get you back to feeling your best in no time!  

 

 

Immune Health: Did you know that your immune system can be either over or under active? Each can present with undesirable symptoms. An overactive immune system can bring with it autoimmune conditions, whereas an underactive immune system may present with frequent illness or reoccurring infections.  If you’re wondering if you might be on either of this spectrum, we have tests to investigate, and treatment to help. 

 

 

Nutrition & Lifestyle Counselling: You are what you eat! Did you know that your body almost completely regenerates over the span of 8 years? Do you remember that awesome broccoli you ate 3 years ago? Probably not – but your body does! How about those French fries? Yup – it remembers those too! Your lifestyle factors are cumulative, and impact how you feel and how well your body systems are going to function and respond to the stressors and demands of everyday life. It’s all about balance and making the right choices for your body!  

Together with fun food choices, identifying food sensitivities and creating a realistic plan – your doctor will help you feel inspired to be excited and have fun with delicious, nutritious food your body will love!

Your doctor in some cases, will prescribe bioidentical hormones as needed. When your hormones are out of balance – you don’t feel like yourself! If you are experiencing things such as insomnia, hair loss, difficulty losing weight, irregular periods, PMS, difficulty establishing or maintaining an erection or a low overall energy level – we’re here to help! 

 

 

Paediatric Care: We have many patients that begin their journey with us in utero, as we care for mom throughout pregnancy. Laying the foundations of health early on in a child’s life can impact their health journey for many years to come! It’s never too early in life to take a natural, well-rounded & preventative approach to healthcare!  

 

 

Acupuncture: Acupuncture involves inserting very thin sterilized needles into specific points in the body. These points are indicated by your specific goals and individual health concerns. Acupuncture is form of Traditional Chinese Medicine, that aims to rebalance your QI (inner energy), with the goal of reducing pain, regulating your body systems and to achieve balance throughout your body. Acupuncture treats the whole body, even if only select points are used during treatment. Most patients find this a very relaxing treatment.
