A referral is not required to book an appointment with a naturopathic doctor.

You can book directly when you are ready to discuss your concerns and health goals.

Before booking, patients may also choose a 15-minute information call to ask general questions about the practice and determine whether the available services may be appropriate for them.

Longer days, warmer temperatures, travel, and changing routines can all affect sleep during the summer.

To support a more consistent sleep routine, keep similar sleep and wake times, reduce screen use before bed, keep the room as cool and dark as possible, limit late-night meals and stimulants, and create a calming evening routine.

If sleep concerns continue despite making changes, it may be helpful to explore possible contributing factors with a healthcare provider.

You do not need to wait until a health concern becomes overwhelming before checking in.

It may be worth seeking support if you frequently feel tired despite resting, digestive symptoms continue to return, stress is affecting your daily routine, sleep has become difficult, or you simply do not feel like yourself.

Naturopathic care provides space to explore your concerns and better understand the factors that may be contributing to them.

Acupuncture and cupping may be used as part of a personalized naturopathic treatment plan.

Depending on the patient and their health concerns, these treatments may be considered for areas such as muscle tension, physical discomfort, stress, or general well-being.

Treatment suitability varies from person to person. A consultation allows Dr. Shana to review your concerns, health history, and goals before making recommendations.

Contact the clinic to learn more about in-person treatment availability.

Travel can be exciting, but changes in food, routine, sleep, and activity can sometimes affect digestion.

Simple ways to support digestive comfort while travelling include staying hydrated, eating at regular times when possible, including fiber-rich foods, moving during long periods of sitting, getting enough rest, and giving your body time to adjust to a new routine.

Persistent or recurring digestive concerns may need more individualized support.

Ongoing pain can affect many parts of daily life, including sleep, movement, mood, work, and energy.

Depending on your needs, your care plan may include lifestyle recommendations, nutritional support, acupuncture, cupping, or collaboration with other healthcare providers.

Treatment recommendations are always personalized and depend on your individual circumstances.
