What to Expect
Our Approach
Our philosophy is that your pain, health and recovery are not only physical, but requires a full body approach, addressing your lifestyle and metabolic needs. We work this way because you aren't just a pile of systems, but a whole human; interconnected in unique and complex ways, and you deserve someone who will help you navigate that.
What is Naturopathic Medicine?
Naturopathic Medicine works holistically from the inside-out, supporting digestion, hormones, and your injury recovery along side your physical rehab. With a sports medicine naturopath, you get to understand how your body works and learn tools for natural pain management to support better recovery from injury or low energy. As a Naturopathic Doctor, I work with you as your guide in rebuilding your body from the bottom up to become efficient, energized and better equipped to manage the high demands of life and overall performance.

How it Works
Step 1: Before Your Visit
You will be given an in depth intake form to fill out. This will include discussing what your goals are and important health information I need to know before we get started
STEP 2: Initial Health Assessment
In the initial appointment, we will take a full look at your concerns and overall health. We don't only address your chief concern, but your full health history and anything else that you want to discuss. We'll set some goals together about how best to approach each one.
Step 3: Labs and Testing
After getting all the necessary and relevant information, I'll perform physical exams if needed and order relevant lab work to tie together your symptoms with any physical or objective findings before getting to your treatment plan.
Step 4: Your Care Plan
Your care is a process, so not all conditions will be resolved after the first visit, or even the first week. Don't worry - you won't leave empty handed - we'll get started on the right track before following up with a full plan and the steps to follow.
