Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic medicine uses a combination of alternative and modern medicine to promote the body's natural ability to heal. Our Naturopathic Doctor will perform a detailed examination and then use a combination of practices such as acupuncture, nutritional counseling, homeopathy, herbal medicine, and lifestyle counseling to treat each individual.
Traditional Acupuncture
Traditional Acupuncture is based on the principle that health is maintained by the balanced flow of qi through meridians, or pathways, in the body. By inserting needles into specific acupoints, practitioners aim to correct imbalances and promote healing. When this flow is restored, it can lead to healing of illness and pain.
Diet & Nutrition
Our Registered Dietitian assess your specific goals and needs, creating a personalized plan while providing advise about nutrition and diet choices. Registered Dietitians can work with many different health conditions and will partner with your medical providers where necessary.
Counselling
Mental Health services coming in April!
Athletic Therapy
Athletic Therapists use movement or athletics as their main assessment & rehab tool. They work with a healthy population who strive to move and take an active role in the rehab process!
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapists use assessment and treatment techniques to address the body as a whole, finding the cause of pain. They target movement and postural imbalances through education, individual exercise & treatment tools within a relaxed atmosphere.
Massage Therapy
