Naturopathic Medicine – Full Circle Healing Arts is a general family medicine practice. Most patients come in to address concerns similar to why they would see their family doctor. Examples of issues I most commonly address include sleep habits, adrenal/stress issues, digestive dysfunction, mood and emotional disorders, hormone imbalances, skin conditions, allergies and autoimmune disorders. Therapies I use in my practice include lifestyle, nutritional, and emotional counselling, nutrition through both diet and supplements, botanical medicines, and homeopathic medicines.
Services offered include:
Full physical exams for children and adults including newborn exams, breast exams and routine Pap tests, conventional lab tests provided through Lifelabs, and alternative lab tests through a variety of specialized labs.

Women’s Medicine
With the additional training as a naturopathic midwife, a large part of my practice centers around women’s health concerns. I work with women at every point in their hormone history including initially regulating the cycle when it first begins, correcting any cycle related symptoms, preconception care, fertility issues, pregnancy, post partum, and menopausal issues. I also provide yearly physical exams including blood work, Pap tests, and breast exams. With my history of working with the whole family, I also acknowledge that women’s health concerns are not all hormonal and are often the result of the many things they are juggling in a day. My goal is to keep women’s bodies functioning optimally so that they can be at their mental and emotional best.

Children’s Health
As a naturopathic midwife, I also gained extensive training and experience in children’s health from the newborn up to age 18. The first year of life is like no other and requires extra skills as a physician. I provide all newborn exams from birth or after being discharged from your pregnancy care provider through 2 years of age as well as addressing any newborn or infant concerns such as feeding issues, failure to thrive, digestive concerns/colic, teething, food introduction, sleep issues, and immunity. I continue yearly physical exams in children through 6 years of age and then continue to provide sports physicals once yearly exams are no longer standard of care. In younger children, eczema, asthma, digestive issues, and anxiety are common concerns that I work with frequently. School age children often present with immune system issues, anxiety, and ADD/ADHD. In the high school years, the issues I see most in office include hormone regulation, digestive issues, and depression.
