Dr. Stacey Munro, Naturopathic Physician

Dr. Stacey Munro is a naturopathic physician who specializes in the treatment of chronic health conditions. Naturopathic medicine is a system of medicine that emphasizes the healing power of nature, including the body’s ability to heal itself. Proper dietary and lifestyle habits are the foundation of good health. Dr. Munro uses nutritional supplements, herbal medicine, and other therapies as prevention and treatment for disease. Following Naturopathic philosophy, she looks for the root cause, rather than just treating symptoms and approaches the patient as a whole, rather than in parts.

Originally from Vancouver, Canada, Dr. Munro spent most of her life in Portland, Oregon. She received a bachelor of science from Oregon State University in 1995. During college and shortly after, she traveled extensively in Europe, Asia and Australia. She returned to Portland, Oregon to attend massage school at the East-West College of the Healing Arts. Following a dream to become a naturopathic physician, she completed her pre-medical studies at Portland State University. In 2001, she enrolled in the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine, which is one of four naturopathic medical schools in the United States, located in Tempe, Arizona. She graduated from the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2005. In 2007, she traded sunscreen for a snow shovel and opened Nature’s Helper Medical Clinic in Windsor, Connecticut, where she continues to practice happily.
