As a naturopath, I use a range of therapeutic modalities to assist you in your health journey. Below is a description of each modality.
Nutritional medicine is based on the principle that nutrients, including essential micronutrients, are required as the building blocks for the proper functioning of all the biochemical processes on which our bodies depend. It seeks to investigate the disturbances in body chemistry caused by nutritional imbalance, which can result form improper diet, food sensitivity reactions, gastrointestinal dysfunction, inflammation, environmental and genetic factors.
Herbal Medicine, also called botanical medicine or phytomedicine, is the therapeutic use of plants to treat disease and enhance general health and wellbeing. Western herbal medicine practice is based on European herbal medicine traditions.
Mind-Body Eating Coaching is a cutting edge approach developed by the Institute for the Psychology of Eating. It effectively addresses weight concerns, binge eating, overeating, body image challenges, and various nutrition related health concerns. As a Mind-Body Eating Coach, my approach is positive and empowering.
