Philosophy

As a naturopathic physician my goal is to bridge the gap between conventional and alternative medical practices so that my patients can understand all their options, take an active role in their health care and benefit from the best of both worlds.

I consider naturopathic medicine to be the ultimate in integrative medicine because we can combine multiple ways of understanding and treating the cause of symptoms. Most often a person’s health needs to be addressed on more than one level – biochemical, structural, energetic and mental/emotional aspects of health all play a role. Working with diet, herbs, homeopathic remedies, Bowen Technique and lifestyle allows us to find ways to improve anyone’s quality of life.

I embrace the principles that guide the naturopathic profession by searching for the root cause of disease, individualizing treatment, educating my patients and emphasizing prevention.
