Naturopathy: Harnessing the Healing Power of Nature While Working in Conjunction with Western Medicine

Naturopathic Medicine and Western Medicine — or Conventional Medicine — work complementary with one another in achieving whole-body wellness and relief for a patient. Both specialize in certain areas, and both have their patient’s best interest and health at the forefront of their decision making. At Trinity Wellness Centre our Naturopathic Doctors (ND) works closely with your Medical Doctor (MD) to make sure every base is being covered and no rock is left unturned when it comes to improving your health or treating your disease. This involves sharing test results, coordinating treatment plans, and communicating with one another about the progress being made on either end of the medical spectrum. By harnessing the natural healing power that’s innate within the human body through an ND and combing it with an MD’s skillset, you can treat and combat your health problems in an all-encompassing way. Come find out why we're a naturopath Calgary leader today. 

Frustrated with Persistent Symptoms and Want to Solve the Problem Once and For All? Our NDs Takes the Time to Find Out the Root Cause of Your Illness or Disease and Help You Treat It in A Safe, Natural Way

Naturopathic Medicine is a comprehensive, whole-body approach to health and wellness. Naturopathic Doctors take the time to understand and identify the root cause of your symptoms, so you can address and combat the reason(s) you’re experiencing specific health problems. These licensed caregivers work with you and your physician in-depth to develop a unique treatment plan based upon your unique set of circumstances, with the goal of restoring your body’s natural ability to heal itself.
​

What Can It Treat?

Naturopathic Medicine can treat chronic illnesses, acute conditions, psychological issues, respiratory problems, and diseases of the digestive, immune, musculoskeletal, and cardiovascular systems

Virtually all health problems can be treated by a Naturopathic Doctor. By determining the underlying cause of a specific disease or illness, an ND can help you eliminate the problem and put you on the right path to maintain your new-found health for the future. Some common health problems treated by Naturopathic medicine include: anxiety, asthma, arthritis, indigestion, constipation, IBS, hypertension, sleep disorders, high cholesterol, celiac disease, eczema, psoriasis, and acne.

Naturopathic Medicine Features Highly-Individualized Treatments That Focus on Promoting Health and Preventing Disease

No two people are the same meaning their history, genetics, lifestyle, and dietary habits differ from one to the next. Knowing this helps our Naturopathic Doctors put together a treatment plan which is specific to you and the health concerns you have. Working with you, our ND finds the obstacles impeding your good health and remove them so you can cure what’s causing your symptoms and progress to an optimal quality of life. Using the same guiding principle of identifying the underlying or root cause of a problem, our NDs at Trinity Wellness Centre also proactively address any minor health issues that could turn into major ones at a later date. 

The Naturopathic Process: Medically Trained, Naturally Focused

  1. ​​We begin with an initial consult where we take the time to get your in-depth medical history and understand your concerns fully. For example, if you come in with a stomach ache we don’t simply give you a treatment for that symptom. We learn about your family history, diet, and other factors which may be causing the issue, so we can find the root of the problem. 
  2. We then develop a unique and specific treatment plan together with you guided by your input so it has the highest probability of being successful and achievable. This usually begins with low-risk, simple treatments like changes to diet and lifestyle, and can also include herbal medicine, supplements, acupuncture, and other treatments within the wellness clinic. 
  3. We then conduct a follow-up appointment with you to determine the effectiveness of the treatment plan we’ve crafted together up until that point in time. If changes need to be made in order to achieve better results, we work with you while providing the necessary insight and resources for you to make the best-informed decision possible.
