Primarily, we provide "corrective care" to heal your core health issues so that you can restore optimal health. We also provide "relief care", for those who are most interested in immediate symptom relief.

 

What is Naturopathy?

Naturopathy bridges the worlds of conventional and alternative medicines, using an array of natural treatments to support the body's own innate ability to heal, such as botanical medicines, bio-identical hormones, metabolic detoxification cleansing, nutrition, and life coaching.

Guiding Principles of Naturopathy

Here are the principles that guide our approach to your health care:

First, do no harm

Heal without the use of harmful substances (drugs) or invasive procedures (surgery) when possible.

Use the healing
power of nature

Access the body's own capacity for self-healing by setting up the right environments for healing to take place.

Find and treat
the cause

Identify and eliminate underlying obstacles that create disease (rather than mask symptoms).

Treat the whole person

Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, we help heal and strengthen all of your systems, which improves your sense of well-being.

Teach health

Educate patients on how to achieve and sustain good health, empowering them to own the process of staying well.

Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy

A safe and healthy remedy for balancing hormones, bio-identical hormones are derived from natural sources (such as soybeans and wild yam) to exactly mimic the molecular structure of the hormones your body should produce naturally. Unlike synthetic hormones, bio-identicals match your own biochemistry, so your body can process the therapy more easily, with little or no side effects.

Typically, you'll start with our leading-edge diagnostic test, the Female Hormone Panel, which tracks hormonal patterns over a period of time (e.g., your menstrual cycle). The recommended therapy will then be based on your needs, goals, symptoms, and lab levels. We work closely with you to monitor your progress and may adjust dosages and hormone medicines as needed to support your healing.

Metabolic Cleansing & Nutrition Therapy

A great first step toward restoring good health is a metabolic detoxification cleanse, personally tailored to your health needs. This easy-to-follow cleanse uses tasty vitamin-rich shakes and a carefully planned diet to help your body gently release inflammatory molecules and metabolic wastes that can contribute to many common health problems.

Many patients have reported significant health improvements after a cleanse, such as weight loss, better digestion, improved hormone balance, and relief from allergies, carpal tunnel stress, and much more.

As your system cleanses and you acclimate to a healthier way of eating, you'll learn a lot about what your own body needs — which foods make you thrive with energy and which ones prompt intolerances, so you can easily make choices that help you feel your personal best.

Weight Management Plans

In addition to metabolic cleansing and basic nutrition therapy to restore your health, we can also support your healing with specialized weight management plans, including:

Ultra Lite™

Ultra Lite is a drug-free process designed to provide you with all the necessary nutrients — proteins, carbs, vitamins and minerals — in proper balance to help you lose weight the healthy way. This process will also help detox your system, which can lead to improved digestion, clearer skin, improved memory, and more.

Firstline Therapy

Firstline Therapy is an easy-to-follow nutritious meal plan designed to help heal the underlying causes of many common health problems by strengthening your body on a cellular level. As a result, your energy will be higher, your body can metabolize fat better so you lose weight easier, you can sleep better, think clearer — you just feel better all over!

Homeopathy & Natural Medicines

Homeopathy

Homeopathy is based on the principle of "like cures like", a theory of opposites that believes a little of what ails you can cure the larger issue.

Substances that, in large amounts, cause illness symptoms are used in very small amounts to treat those same symptoms. Homeopathic remedies are gentle, safe and effective.

Natural Medicines

To heal and strengthen your internal systems, we provide vitamin, mineral and botanical medicines. They include only natural elements, without synthetic drugs that may adversely alter your biochemistry.

Physical & Gynecological Exams

As a Naturopathic Physician, Dr. Wynsome also conducts comprehensive nutritional and hormonal physical exams, as well as gynecological and breast exams and pap smears.

State-of-the-Art Lab Testing

We offer a wide variety of conventional and innovative diagnostic tests for assessing functional levels in your body systems, such as hormonal (e.g., thyroid, insulin, adrenal, female and male), digestive sufficiency, disease ranges, nutritional testing, and more. These tests help Dr. Wynsome design an effective, personalized treatment plan that works best to relieve your symptoms and heal your critical issues system-wide.

Some lab tests are conducted in the office, while others are take-home tests you can do on your own. Results are analyzed by specialized labs outside Dr. Wynsome's office. In your Personalized Health Rebuilding Workbook, you'll find helpful descriptions of lab tests and what the results mean.

Cranio-Sacral Therapy

The cranio-sacral system includes the brain and spinal cord, and the related membranes. With this hands-on therapy, the doctor applies very gentle manipulation to the skull and spinal area to release tensions and restore rhythmic flow to the cerebal-spinal fluid within the cranio-sacral system. Cranio-sacral therapy helps improve the functioning of the central nervous system and can be effective in healing a wide range of physical and psychological symptoms.
