Digestive Health Clinic
Your digestive tract is your highway to health.
More than 20 million Canadians suffer from digestive disorders. Those affected appreciate how devastating the symptoms can be and the influence they can have on one’s personal and professional life. The magnitude of the problem is underestimated by the government, employers and the general public. Fortunately, there are investigative options and treatment solutions that can help.

Our Naturopathic Doctors provide a personalized nutrition program for each client along with therapeutic nutrient recommendations to heal the gastrointestinal system and restore optimal body function and metabolism. You will become more aware of the connection between your gastrointestinal system and your immune, hormone, and other body systems. Many common symptoms such as pain, fatigue, lower mood and skin rashes often have their origins in the gastrointestinal tract.
