Naturopathic Services
Naturopathic Medicine is a holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on optimizing health and preventing illness. It uses natural remedies and therapies to support the body's innate healing abilities and address the root cause of health issues. Dr. Cait, ND works with patients to create individualized treatment plans that take into account unique needs and circumstances.
Dr. Cait emphasizes the importance of a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management. She also incorporates a range of natural therapies, such as herbal medicine, acupuncture, and vitamin injections/IVs, to support the body's healing process. By addressing the underlying causes of health issues and promoting overall wellness, Dr. Cait hopes to help patients achieve optimal health and vitality.
Hormones, Fertility and Pre-Conception
Dr. Cait understands the complex interplay between hormones and overall health. She can help patients balance their hormones naturally, which can improve fertility, regulate menstrual cycles, and alleviate symptoms of menopause. She also provides pre-conception care to help couples optimize their health before trying to conceive. This includes identifying and addressing any underlying health issues, optimizing nutrition and lifestyle habits, and providing support throughout the conception process.
Dr. Cait's interest in fertility and pregnancy came from her own journey with debilitating menstrual periods that were eventually diagnosed as endometriosis. She understood that the condition and the associated hormonal imbalances could affect her own fertility, so she took it upon herself to be proactive and learn everything she could about hormones, fertility, and pregnancy.
She recommends starting pre-conception care at least 6 months prior to the desired conception date to allow ample time to correct nutrient deficiencies and correct hormonal imbalances.
For those working with a fertility clinic, Dr. Cait is able to provide treatment while you undergo those treatments. Her recommendations may include dietary and lifestyle recommendations, supplementation, and acupuncture.
Pediatrics
Naturopathic medicine is a holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on the prevention and treatment of illnesses using natural remedies and therapies. This approach is particularly effective for children, as it emphasizes the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and preventing before they occur. Dr. Cait, ND works with parents to develop personalized treatment plans that address the unique needs of each child taking into account their medical history, lifestyle and overall health.
Naturopath medicine offers a wide range of treatments for common childhood illnesses, including colds, flu, allergies, eczema, and digestive issues. These treatments may include herbal remedies, nutritional supplements, dietary changes, and lifestyle modifications. By addressing the root cause of the illness, rather than just treating the symptoms, naturopathic medicine can help children recover quickly and avoid future health problems. With its focus on prevention and natural healing, naturopathic medicine is an alternative to conventional medicine for children of all ages.
Mental Health
When comes to mental health, naturopathic doctors focus on identifying and addressing the root causes of mental health issues, rather than simply symptoms. This may involve a combination of therapies, including dietary changes, nutritional supplements, herbal remedies, and lifestyle modifications.
One of the key principles of naturopathic medicine is the belief that mental health is closely linked to physical health. By addressing underlying imbalances in the body, such as nutrient deficiencies or hormonal imbalances, naturopathic doctors can help to improve mental health outcomes. Additionally, naturopathic medicine emphasizes the importance of self-care and stress management, which can be powerful tools for improving mental health and overall well-being.
Vitamin Injections and IVs
Vitamin injections and IV therapy are designed to support health optimization by delivering essential nutrients directly into your bloodstream. By bypassing the digestive tract, going straight into the bloodstream, all of the nutrients are absorbed for the body to utilize.
Dr. Cait uses a combination of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and micronutrients in her injections and IVs. She is able to create customized formulations based on the client's specific needs.
These services require an initial consultation in order to determine safety and whether the treatments are indicated prior to administering treatment.
Lab Testing
Naturopathic Doctors are able to requisition a variety of bloodwork and functional tests for their clients. Dr. Cait looks beyond the "normal" reference ranges and aims to have her clients obtain results in the optimal range.
Doula Services
Dr. Cait has always been passionate about pregnancy and birth. She became a Naturopathic Doula while still a student and was co-chair of the Naturopathic Doula Club at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. After finishing her studies she decided to focus on her practice and took a break from doula-ing, but was re-inspired after her own pregnancy, labour and delivery experience.
Dr. Cait's doula services include two prenatal visits, one postpartum visit, and labour/delivery attendance. Clients may book additional appointments (IV, injection, acupuncture, etc) at an additional expense.
Due to the intimate nature of being a doula and attending births, she requires a complimentary alignment call so that both parties can determine whether it is a good fit prior to taking on new doula clients.
Facial Acupuncture
Cosmetic acupuncture offers a uniquely enjoyable twist on traditional acupuncture by combining therapeutic benefits with a luxurious, spa-like experience. Imagine reclining in a serene environment, with soothing music playing in the background, while tiny, painless needles work their magic to enhance your skin's radiance and overall appearance. This rejuvenating treatment not only promotes relaxation but also stimulates collagen production, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles naturally. The holistic approach of cosmetic acupuncture addresses both inner balance and outer beauty, leaving you feeling refreshed and revitalized after each session. It's a delightful way to invest in self-care, promoting a glowing complexion and a sense of well-being that radiates from the inside out.
