When it comes to health and wellness, there's a range of therapeutics that can be tailored to individual needs. Prescriptions are often used to address specific medical conditions, offering precise and regulated solutions. Injection shots, provide direct and efficient delivery of essential nutrients. Nutraceuticals, which include vitamins, minerals, and other dietary supplements, can bolster overall helath and fill nutritional gaps if uncontaminated and in the most bioavailable forms. Botanicals, derived from plants, have been used for centuries to support overall health and address various ailments naturally. Homeopathics involve highly diluted substances that, when matched correctly, can trigger the body's self-healing mechanisms. Each of these therapeutics has its own strengths, and the key lies in finding the right combination and skilled practitioners to guide their use.

I provide both natural and conventional prescriptions to support your health goals ensuring you receive the most appropriate and effective treatments for your specific needs. I am able to provide the necessary pharmaceuticals to balance hormones, treat infections, improve digestion and sleep, or to support your transition off of the medication entirely.
Having prescriptive authority allows for the reduction of both the number of medications and the dose of these medications. Side effects often occur with the dose is too high, and slight adjustments can lead to significant improvements. Likewise, prescriptions can be very effective when used appropriately, such as hormone therapy, autoimmune support, infection, digestion, sleep, etc. For example, estrogen and progesterone can be quite helpful for fertility and menopause (horse-based estrogens with their host of negative side effects are no longer used). Thyroid medication, when indicated helps reduce damage in conditions like Hashimoto's. Low-dose Naltrexone (LDN can be useful in autoimmune conditions and cancer. Prescriptive-grade digestive enzymes can be powerful, and pharmaceuticals are quite effective in treating infections associated with SIBO, parasites, and urinary tract infections. Just to go through a few.
Through thoughtful and personalized prescriptions, I aim to provide treatments that not only address immediate health concerns, but also promote long-term well-being.

Injection ShotsInjection shots like B12, folate, and MIC (a combination of methionine, inositol, and choline) and vitamin D are used to supplement deficiencies and support overall health. B12 shots can boost energy levels and improve nerve function. Folate injections are beneficial for those with certain types of anemia or certain genetic disorders. MIC injections are often used for weight loss and metabolic support. These injections are particularly beneficial for individuals with diagnosed deficiencies, malabsorption issues, or specific health conditions requiring targeted support.

Quality:
Equally important is choosing high-quality, uncontaminated supplements that are rigorously tested, and presented in a form that is bioavailable. A 2018 research paper revealed that almost all of our commonly available prenatal supplements were contaminated with heavy metals and almost half of them had lead higher than the allowable limit. One containing more than 8 times the allowable level of lead. They concluded that taking these supplements over many months may contribute to a significant heavy metal burden (read it here). This is absolutely alarming and stresses the importance of only putting good quality supplements, free of heavy metals, in your body.
It is essential to ensure your nutrient stores are high and that your digestive system is functioning optimally. As a naturopath, I can guide you in selecting supplements that support a healthy pregnancy.

Before modern medicine, tribes worldwide relied on botanical remedies, and this practice is now experiencing a resurgence in popularity. For many, it aligns more closely with their ideologies and concerns about the side effects of synthetic medicine. Plants contain numerous compounds that work in synergy to promote healing, many of which we have yet to understand. Herbal medicine can be administered as food or through infusions, decoctions, poultices, and tinctures; however, its crucial to ensure that the herbal products you use are uncontaminated, free from mold, and ethically sourced from non-endangered species.

Using plants is merely facilitating a biochemical conversation which is far beyond our comprehension and our understanding.

Homeopathic medicines are made from different types of plant, mineral, chemical, and animals. very difficult to explain particularly how it works (no one really knows yet) and it is also difficult to refute that it doesn't work, as there are many case reports showing its successes. It is perhaps a situation similar to when bacteria was first discovered and numerous people and Dr.s would not believe in the existence of microbes because they could not be seen. It is only time until energetic healing will be understood. What we know now is that when the correct homeopathic medicine is chosen it can be extremely effective - it is just a matter of finding the correct one and a skilled practitioner to prescribe it.
