Naturopathic Women’s Health - How It Works
Naturopathic doctors typically view women’s health conditions with a holistic view. Everything is taken into consideration, including how the condition began, past treatment responses, aggravating factors, and more. Our goal is always to gain a thorough clinical understanding of your condition.
In addition to learning the details about the condition itself, your naturopathic doctor will also look for underlying causes and factors that may be contributing. Women’s health conditions are often interrelated with other areas of health and wellness, so your ND will ask about sleep, stress, mental health, digestive function, adrenal health, family history and more. Each patient is unique, with different healthcare needs and goals – our aim is to support you in the way you need the most.
The Difference
Women’s health concerns can be complex. At the clinic, we develop long-term relationships with our patients, supporting them with naturopathic medicine through different stages in life. Since we have a holistic understanding of each patient’s health, we are able to provide help and support for a variety of concerns as they arise.
We always spend a good deal of time looking for and treating underlying causes of health problems, providing solutions that support the innate ability of the body to heal. We also work well with conventional healthcare providers to support your care.

A Holistic & Comprehensive Health Plan
Naturopathic medicine for women’s health is always holistic, and treatments are created to incorporate elements of your lifestyle, preferences and needs. We provide research-based natural solutions such as supplements, herbal medicines and dietary changes that support the body’s ability to heal.
We always look carefully for underlying causes with a thorough clinical history and science-based data such as lab testing. WHEN to test is as important as knowing WHAT to test, when it comes to women’s health conditions! Our naturopathic doctors understand where hormone levels should be optimally, based on cycle timing. Depending on clinical history, testing for nutrient status or other factors may also be recommended. The right testing eliminates guessing and helps patients achieve their goals.
