Does a naturopathic physician treat conditions through medication?
Many naturopathic doctors do use pharmaceutical medications. However the philosophy in naturopathic medicine is to use medications when necessary and try to address the root cause. Typically lifestyle changes will be used in conjunction with medication. READ MORE
How much sunlight do we need?
Part of the answer depends on where someone lives, their skin color, and time of year. In general it’s recommended to get a minimum of 20-30 minutes of sunshine on your skin a day. This is very minimal though. And people with darker skin, and living in more northern environments will need more. READ MORE
My daughter is grinding her teeth. What could be the reason behind this?
Teeth grinding could be a stress or anxiety response, or a response to pain such as a sinus or ear infection. If children have gastrointestinal infections it'd difficult, or impossible, for them to communicate it. An imbalance in the organisms in their intestines can cause inflammation, stress, anxiety, pain, and more. A stool sample test, I use GI-MAP from Diagnostic Solutions, can help reveal if this is an issue. READ MORE
Does acupuncture help with nasal congestion?
Yes! A good acupuncturist can help both relieve nasal congestion immediately and help get to the root cause of the congestion. Which could be due to diet or lifestyle, or an imbalance in your body. READ MORE
