Clinical Nutrition/Weight Loss
Our naturopathic doctors understand that what you eat is the basis for your health. Adopting a healthy diet is often the first step towards correcting health problems. Many medical conditions can be treated more effectively with foods and nutritional supplements than they can by other means, but with fewer complications and side effects. Our naturopaths may use specific individual diets, fasting, and nutritional supplements to best treat our patients.
Botanical Medicine
Plants have powerful healing properties. Many pharmaceutical drugs have their origins in plant substances. When there is a better herbal alternative, our doctors use plant substances (herbal medicine) for their healing effects and nutritional value.
Naturopathic Oncology
We have advanced training in naturopathic oncology. This area of medicine is well researched and can provide added support to patients dealing with cancer. It is extremely effective with dealing with the side effects of chemotherapy. Studies have shown that there is no negative impact the effectiveness of chemotherapy with the treatments we utilize. On the contrary research has shown that a number of these complementary treatments also lead to improved outcomes. Dr. Michael Schaplowsky is a member of OncANP which draws together the best naturopathic doctors in cancer care.
Lifestyle Counselling and Stress Management
Mental attitudes and emotional states can be important elements in healing and disease. We are trained in counselling, nutritional balancing, stress management, hypnotherapy, and biofeedback. We also attend to environmental and lifestyle factors that affect our patients’ health.
IV Therapy
IV therapy is one of the best ways to get nutrients into the body. Often doses which are required to heal the body cannot be achieved through simple oral routes. With IV the nutrients needed to heal various tissues can be administered and healing can begin in earnest. IV therapy is one of the most important tools for such conditions as cancer and fatigue.
Ozone Therapy
Ozone has been used as a treatment option for close to 100 years. During this time it has been successfully used to treat tens of thousands of patients dealing with numerous and varied conditions. Virtually unknown in North America, it is used extensively in Germany and Russia and throughout Europe. Ozone has been shown to improve overall health in a variety of areas and is used extensively for fatigue, anti-aging, cancer, infections and immune function.
