I promote healing from within. It's important to look for the underlying cause of your condition because addressing those issues will allow for a more permanent cure instead of the temporary suppression found with medications alone. Our bodies' have an innate healing power that's released given the right internal and external environment. Finding a diet and lifestyle specific to your individual needs is essential for engaging this healing potential. Sometimes, though, we must dive even deeper into your body's biochemistry to find answers.

Endocrinology Naturopaths
Do naturopaths practice endocrinology?
Yes, many naturopaths practice endocrinology, which refers to the study of hormones within the body. Hormones are signaling molecules that regulate key bodily functions, such as growth, sleep, stress, sexual health, and temperature regulation. Many naturopathic remedies draw on the idea of hormonal imbalance as a root cause to symptoms of chronic conditions; therefore, a key area of focus for many naturopaths is indeed on the restoration of hormonal balance within the body. Unlike medical doctors (MDs) who practice endocrinology, who may prescribe pharmaceuticals and other medications, naturopaths generally utilize alternative approaches to address hormonal imbalance, such as through lifestyle modifications like diet and exercise changes, or other alternative modalities like acupuncture or herbal medicine.
