Pediatric Naturopathy
The "root cause" and preventative medicine starts with a child. The nutritional and lifestyle habits that are set in the early years can set a person up for a lifetime of wellness.
Well Child Visits:
Regular check-ins for healthy children are very important. These are recommended yearly until the age of 18. The initial hour long visit allows enough time to get to know the child's medical history, goals of seeing a Naturopathic Doctor and allows for extra support for parents with nutrition guidance, changes in sleep and digestion.
Common Pediatric Conditions Seen in Practice:
- Skin concerns (eczema, acne, diaper rash, cradle cap, psoriasis)
- Immune Support (reducing infection frequency and severity during the school year)
- Digestive health (constipation, diarrhea, IBS, stomach upset, reflux)
- Mental health (anxiety, depression)
- ADHD, Autism
- Recurrent infections (ear, lung, skin, urinary, tonsillitis)
- Asthma and allergies
These initial consultations are recommended for children aged 5-18. If the child is younger, please submit a patient inquiry to see if an initial comprehensive assessment is possible.
