Frequently Asked Questions
Naturopathic medicine is a primary healthcare system focused on the prevention of disease and addressing the underlying cause of illness. Naturopathic doctors in Ontario undergo rigorous training and education to safely provide effective and evidence-based treatments that support the body’s own ability to heal. Treatment methods include botanical medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), acupuncture, diet counseling, lifestyle counseling, and nutritional supplementation.
The first appointment with a naturopathic doctor is often an hour long (or longer) and is spent diving deep into your health concerns. It is important that your naturopathic doctor understands your diet, lifestyle, personal and family health history, and risk factors for disease. Physical exams and lab testing are also usually part of the initial visit. This information helps us identify the root cause of your symptoms and create an individualized treatment plan specific to your needs.
The digestive system is an integral part of your overall health and will usually be addressed during a naturopathic appointment. It is important for your naturopathic doctor to understand your diet, nutritional status, microbiome, digestive function, and daily habits in order to identify the reason for your symptoms. Additional tools such as physical exams and lab testing can help guide us towards the root cause. A naturopathic treatment plan is then offered that is targeted at eliminating any aggravation to the gut and promoting healing.
Naturopathic medicine can address various aspects of women’s health including menstrual irregularities, fertility, pregnancy & postpartum, menopause, thyroid health, and conditions such as PCOS, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and others. The underlying cause of these symptoms and conditions can be determined through lab testing, physical exams, and a detailed clinical discussion with your naturopathic doctor. Various naturopathic treatment options are available to support you through your cycles and hormonal changes.
Symptoms that show up on the skin are often a sign of internal imbalance and inflammation. A naturopathic doctor can help identify and address the reason for your skin conditions through a detailed clinical intake, physical exams and lab testing. Naturopathic treatment offers topical and internal medicine to support skin health from the inside out, prevent further skin irritation, and promote healthy aging.
