Ok, so you had your first scan a few months ago. You followed your recommendations (for the most part) and felt maybe a little better for a week or two.

Then your supplements ran out. You meant to re order, but life happened.

You started to feel a little more stressed.

Time got away from you.

You forgot what you were even supposed to be doing and maybe feel a little shame or guilt for not following through AGAIN.

You're wondering if it's even worth trying again.

Now what?

First, remind yourself that any healing, even if it stops and starts is better than no healing at all. It's normal to run into road blocks as you make major life changes to your habits and lifestyle.

Second, schedule your follow up! The sooner you can get in the sooner you'll be back on track and on your way to a healthier and more balanced mind and body. If it's over 3 weeks until you can get in, order refills of your supplements ASAP. Remember: your Health Plan is meant to be implemented continuously until your next appointment.

Third, review your health plan from last session and start working on your goals. This will help you to feel more accomplished when you do make it in.

Fourth, and maybe most importantly: do not beat yourself up. You've taken necessary steps towards getting started again, and now is the time to start reducing your stress so that your work can have the highest benefit.

It's more common than you might think to fall off your naturopathic care when life gets busy. Don't worry, it's never too late to get back in the game!

Naturopathic care can be quite a different experience from what most people are used to in a medical or functional setting. The biggest difference you'll notice is how much individual time you receive each visit. I don't treat clients with pre-designed protocols like functional medicine or with cookie cutter scripts like MDs.

Each visit includes a BioScan (with report) as well as an in-depth consultation, energy balancing (if desired) and a custom remedy.

This is unlike any health care you've experienced before.

Fed up with the "sick care" model? No longer seeing results from pills, surgeries or injections?

Let's chat.

In person (Grosse Ile) and online appointments available.

Holistic care for the whole family. Medicine doesn't need to have side effects.

As a naturopath I can not and do not give medical advice. However sometimes clients ask me what I do, including what medical interventions I take.

This is a nuanced and complex topic, but one I feel strongly about.

Not all tests are safe for everyone. Some even cause harm. Don't let outside influences demand you take medical interventions that go against your own beliefs or intuition.

We are coming to the end of an era where humanity outsources our innate inner knowing.

I'm seeing a resurgence of posts and influencers talking about parasites.

I've said it before and I'll say it again-- parasites are a problem! Yes! But the terrain is the root of parasites.

Do you have poor digestion? A bad diet? Unresolved trauma? These things are all root issues UNDER parasites.

Addressing parasites first can lead to worse problems.

Detox heavy metals and improve digestion and diet FIRST.

You may not even need to address parasites, but if you do, you will have a much easier time of it.

I'll share my favorite detox and digestive support in the comments.
