Your naturopathic doctor, Maggie, will review your paperwork and ask about your health history, current state of health, work and home situations, and stresses in your life. She’ll review your eating habits and any medicines, vitamins or nutritional supplements you take.

Finally you’ll discuss short- and long-term options for changes to help you:
• Get healthy
• Possible cause(s) for your specific health concerns
• Options to ease your symptoms
• Lower stress
• Help prevent future illness

You’ll learn about things that you can do every day to make your health better.

We will go beyond nutrition and body and look at how your lifestyle affects your whole self. Then we’ll develop a solution that you can put into action. One that aligns with your preferences and sets you up for success.

Please keep in mind that there is no such thing as a miracle cure or a magic bullet; you must be willing to make healthy changes in your life. Remember, too, that it may take some time for your body to heal itself once we take away the obstacles to health – especially with health problems you’ve had for a long time.

Yes! The advice and lessons from your Naturopathic Doctor complements mainstream healthcare.

Many people find it very effective to use the two together. We do ask you to keep your M.D. or O.D. up-to-date on your natural supplements, as well as any new eating habits or exercising regimens that you begin.

“Although the term “naturopathy” originated in the late 19th century, the art can be traced back through Germany into Greece, to Hippocrates himself, and even beyond.

There have always been people who understood that healing occurs naturally in the human body, when it is given what it truly needs: proper diet, pure water, fresh air, sunlight, exercise and rest.

In the mid 1800’s one out of five American physicians in urban areas practiced homeopathy. Currently 32% of French family physicians prescribe homeopathic medicines, and in a survey in the British Medical Journal indicated that 42% of British physicians refer patients to homeopathic physicians. (Cummings, S. & Ullman, D. (1997). Everybody’s guide to homeopathic medicines: Safe and effective remedies for you and your family. New York: Tarcher/Putnam.)

Also from this book: “By choosing the correct, individually suited homeopathic (supplement) from the plant, mineral, animal, or chemical kingdom, you can successfully stimulate the body’s own defenses… You can complement your family’s efforts toward good health with these safe… effective, inexpensive alternatives to conventional medicine.”

In some cases we actually want to work with you and your Medical Doctor to make sure that they are advised of the changes you decide to make in your life, and that your supplements won’t interact negatively with any prescription medications you might be taking.

Some specific supplements do conflict (are contra-indicated) with certain prescription drugs. We have books and other sources that can pinpoint supplement/prescription contraindications to prevent this from happening.

This is why we ask for your full disclosure to what you are taking, and also why we would like to make sure that you are informing your M.D., D.O., or Pharmacist of your supplements and eating changes. We are also able to talk directly to your other doctor(s) about your medications if you wish.

Many eating changes can severely affect your prescription dosage. For instance, if a Type II Diabetic who has been taking insulin for many years decides to go on a new low carbohydrate diet they may have to monitor their insulin levels very closely.

Our services also include counseling on which dietary supplements might work best for you, including herbs, vitamins, minerals, food supplements, teas, and homeopathic remedies.

Maggie has researched the supplement companies offered in depth, and she has a 25+ year relationship with most of them. She has been to several of their factories for tours and inspections.
