Western Botanical medicine

Naturopathic physicians are regarded by many as the medical experts in botanical medicine as their training and clinical experience is extensive in this area.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Acupuncture
TCM is an elegant, time-honored system of medicine that respects the energetic as well as physical aspect to our being. Acupuncture is an ancient form of Chinese medicine involving the insertion of small acupuncture needles into the skin at specific points on the body to achieve a therapeutic effect. Acupuncture is most effective when done in a series of four to six weekly sessions.

Homeopathy
Homeopathy uses minute amounts of natural substances that stimulate the body’s own self-healing capacity and are specific to the totality of each person.

Bowen Therapy

Bio Impedence Analysis (BIA)
BIA is a non-invasive technique that involves placing some sticky electrical conductors on one hand and foot and connecting a battery powered meter to measure two electrical readings. These are put into a computer to generate a detailed report about your levels of hydration, toxicity, and weight loss.

Low Level Laser therapy

This nonsurgical therapy has been shown to reduce pain, promote faster healing, increase bone repair speed, relax muscles, decrease swelling and inflammation, enhance immune cells and reenergize sick and injured cell membranes. It is a useful tool in the treatment of fibromyalgia, headaches and migraines, low back pain, menstrual pain, chronic joint disorders, wound healing and bone regeneration.
