Naturopathic medicine
The primary goal of naturopathic physicians is to keep you healthy, the basis is PREVENTION through effective management of your lifestyle.
We educate, empower and motivate our clients to assume more personal responsibility for their health by adopting a healthy attitude, lifestyle, and diet.
I believe that your diet and your lifestyle have a big impact on your overall health.
Naturopathic medicine is a science-based tradition that promotes wellness by identifying the unique aspects of each patient and then employing non-toxic natural therapies to restore his or her physiological, psychological, and structural balance.
In order to ensure an optimal level of your health, the naturopath will advise you on:
- Food and supplementation
- Exercise and stretching
- Rest and sleep
- Sunshine and time spent outdoors
- Hygiene in general
- Stress management
- Emotional balance
- Eliminate toxic chemicals
- Eliminate people and toxic environments
- Positive thinking
- etc …
To begin with, an assessment of your diet will certainly be required. This is is the quality of your meal, are you eating to much sugar, processed food, what is the inflammatory impact of the food you ingest, what is the effect on the pH of your body, etc…
You are what you eat ⇒ you are what you digest
It is important to eat well and to give your body the proper nutrients needed.
I am here to guide you in this process.
Hippocrate said: Let Food be Thy medicine and medicine be thy food
As the word supplement implies, if necessary, we might suggest some supplements in addition to your nutrition in order to help you achieve better energy, facilitate digestion, eliminate mental fatigue, etc … This is to supplement your diet and not replace vitamins and minerals with supplements.
