​WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR NATUROPATHIC APPOINTMENTS

Your First Appointment 

​​

Your initial consultation will include a thorough health history intake, giving you an opportunity to discuss chief health concerns and significant health factors in detail with our naturopath. To assess your overall nutrient intake and determine potential nutrient deficiencies, you may be asked to fill in a weekly diet diary. Naturopathic therapies are safe and effective when used appropriately. Please bring a list of all medications and supplements you are currently taking so that our naturopath can ensure there will be no interactions between prescribed therapies. If necessary, our naturopath may also perform physical examinations (e.g., assessing your blood pressure, checking your pulse, etc.) and order laboratory testing (e.g., food sensitivity analysis, hormone testing, etc.) for the management of your health concerns.  Our practitioners believe in co-management of your health with your other healthcare providers. If you have copies of any previous laboratory results, imaging reports, or other medical records, please bring them to your visit.

Your initial consultation allows our naturopath to evaluate your overall physical, mental, and emotional health, as well as determine root cause(s) that may be contributing to your symptoms. All the findings will be explained on your follow-up visits. If your naturopath determines that you are a suitable candidate for naturopathic care, recommendations will be made and your individualized treatment will begin. ​
