Naturopathy in Peterborough, Ontario

My purpose is to help you get to the root cause of your health problems, whether they are mainly physical or mental and emotional.

My own quest for greater health began 20 years ago when I was suffering from digestive problems, chronic fatigue, irritable bowel syndrome and depression. At the time I was in university studying biology and I knew nothing about naturopathy and, like most people, I used conventional allopathic medicine to try and relieve my symptoms. After 2 years of seeing medical doctors I realized that I wasn’t getting anywhere. In fact, the antibiotic treatments that I was receiving were making my problems worse. When I finally opened my mind to naturopathic medicine, things began to turn around for me.

I began reading everything I could about Chinese medicine, Ayurveda and homeopathy. Soon afterwards, I enrolled in the four-year program at Toronto’s Naturopathic Medical School-CCNM.

Since this time I have continued to study and work hard in my practice as well as take care of my family. I am committed to learning and enjoy the process of mastering the art and practice of naturopathic medicine. This is a very creative type of medicine, which endeavors to treat each person uniquely. In this way, each patient that walks through my door is an entirely new case which I have never seen before. This continuously inspires me to investigate the true cause of illness in every one of my patients.

I specialize in classical homeopathy. I also use Traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, nutrition and herbal medicine. These are the types of medicines that can truly address people in a holistic manner to get to the cause of their health issues…and not just treat their symptoms.

If you are suffering with an illness, it would be an honor for me to explore your experience with you, and determine what it is that you need to help your body overcome it.
