What Is Naturopathic Medicine?
At Island Optimal Health and Performance, Our naturopathic medicine services are rooted in a holistic, patient-centered approach that supports your body’s natural ability to heal. Whether you're managing a chronic condition or simply striving for optimal health, we offer personalized, evidence-informed care designed to help you thrive.
Naturopathic medicine combines the wisdom of traditional healing with modern scientific knowledge. It focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of illness, rather than just suppressing symptoms. Our naturopathic doctors take time to understand your full health story — physical, mental, emotional, and environmental — to develop a treatment plan tailored uniquely to you.
Our Approach
We integrate a variety of natural therapies including:
- Clinical nutrition
- Botanical (herbal) medicine
- Lifestyle and stress management
- Traditional Chinese Medicine & acupuncture
- Homeopathy
- Physical medicine
- Lab testing and diagnostics
- IV Therapy
Your care may include a combination of these therapies, customized to your specific needs and goals.
Our interdisciplinary team collaborates to provide truly integrated care under one roof. Our naturopathic doctors work alongside chiropractors, physiotherapists, massage therapists, and other health professionals to ensure you receive the most effective and comprehensive treatment possible.
Whether you're navigating hormonal imbalances, digestive issues, fatigue, immune challenges, or simply want to feel your best, we’re here to guide and support you on your wellness journey.
We offer Naturopathic and IV services at our North location.
