Naturopathy

“Naturopathic medicine is a distinct primary health care profession built on a patient-centred approach that emphasizes prevention, treatment, and optimal health through the use of therapeutic methods and substances that support the body’s natural ability to heal and help the patient achieve sustainable health and wellness. Naturopathic medicine focuses on an understanding of the origins of acute and chronic disease and working to support and assist the body’s natural ability to heal, getting to the root cause of what’s wrong. Naturopathic assessment, diagnosis and treatment of the individual patient are accomplished by integrating modern and traditional care which includes clinical and laboratory diagnostic techniques.”

Somatic Experiencing

Somatic Experiencing is a  therapeutic process used to engage the natural responses of the nervous system to release stress and trauma.  

Peter Levine developed this technique over the past 40 years to help remove the barriers of trauma so that we can reconnect to our authentic and present selves.   

Somatic Experiencing can be used to heal from trauma as well as to increase our connection to our body and inner wisdom.
