At our CT clinic, we help patients acheive greater health and wellness using diet and nutrition, herbal medicine, and other natural treatments. In cases where natural treatments are not appropriate, you may be referred to a medical doctor. Natural and herbal medicines can be used as an adjunct to medical treatments in many cases. It may also be possible to get off or reduce medication. This determination can usually be made after the initial visit.

Herbal Medicine and Homeopathy

Natural medicine treatments such as nutrients, herbs and homeopathy may be used as part of your treatment. Natural medicines are chosen based on their safety and efficacy.  Homeopathic remedies are generally considered very safe, because they work on an energetic level to heal imbalances. Herbal medicines and herbal formulas, and specific nutrients are also generally safe, but interactions are possible.  Caution should be taken in children, pregnancy, and if you are on other drugs or medications. 

Diet, Nutrition, and Lifestyle Counseling

Good nutrition as well as healthy lifestyle practices are fundamental to health and wellness. The role of a naturopathic doctor is to educate. You will learn which dietary and lifestyle patterns are contributing to your chronic conditions.  Living a healthy lifestyle will be one of the most important changes that you can make to create a lifetime of good health.
