Women’s Health Care
Toronto Naturopathic Clinic
Many women experience chronic conditions that are unique to women only. A holistic approach to treatment targets the root cause of women’s health issues in order to resolve symptoms and prevent future recurrence. Since women’s hormones affect many aspects of health including mental/emotional health and reproductive health, the effects of balancing these hormones can help a woman live a happier and fuller life.
Women's conditions we commonly treat include:
- Bacterial vaginosis
- Chronic yeast infections
- Endometriosis
- Heavy periods
- Hot flashes and other difficult menopausal changes
- Infertility
- Irregular periods
- Menstrual cramps
- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
- Premenstrual syndrome
- Uterine fibroids
By treating the root cause of these conditions with nutritional support, herbal medicine, counselling, acupuncture and homeopathy, many women experience freedom from chronic discomfort.
