Children's Health
Healthy habits begin early in life.
When it comes to working with children, our philosophy is truly preventative and starts with education.
Our goal is to support the child’s normal healthy processes and to be a resource for parents.
Routine well child visits from infancy to teens are done to maintain an ongoing discussion about development, feeding and sleep schedules, and natural alternatives to colds and flus, ear infections, eczema, allergies, common digestive problems and much more!
We also have the experience and wisdom to refer to other health care professionals when necessary.
For children under 6, please book a "New Child Patient" Naturopathic appointment for your first visit and regular 30 minute Naturopathic appointments going forward.

Top 10 for Summer First Aid
The sun is out and we all want to enjoy being outside. With increased outings to cottages, campgrounds, hiking trails, golf courses, tennis courts, outdoor playgrounds, and swimming pools, we all need to be prepared for a multitude of events. This of course, is even more important when you have small kiddos.
Melatonin - Fertility Support for Egg Quality
Yes you read it properly. Our favourite little sleep supplement is also a key hormone in fertility, specifically egg quality.
Melatonin is a hormone we make naturally from an amino acid called tryptophan and it is secreted by the pineal gland (middle of the brain). It is secreted at night and is regulated by circadian rhythms and promotes sleep.
