The Medicine
The strongest medicine comes from within ourselves, and the beauty of our natural world is a treasure chest of healing aids.
-Dr. Colleen
As a naturopathic doctor I am dedicated to providing supportive, individualized care to bring optimal health to each patient. With a comprehensive, whole-person assessment we work together to develop natural approaches to empower you to create health, longevity and vitality in your life. I respectfully take into account each patient's physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual factors when working on a treatment plan.
My goal is to address underlying causes of imbalance and illness and use natural approaches to restore optimal functioning and health.
I know that nutrition is fundamental to healing and as naturopaths we are experts in helping you formulate a diet and lifestyle that enhance immune system functioning and restore health, balance and energy to your life. I take into account that for true wellness we have to address the mind, body and soul together, as the imbalance in one can create imbalance throughout the individual. I stress the importance of this in treatment plans and in our discussions. Working to find ways that work for each patient to bring all into alignment.
There are a variety of treatment modalities that I use which include but are not limited to; diet, lifestyle, herbs, homeopathy, flower essence therapy, Unda therapy, hydrotherapy, movement therapy, stress management techniques, injection procedures (Prolotherapy, trigger point and neural therapy), and nutrient supplementation.
