Individualized Nutrition & Detoxification - Customized Naturopathic Health Care
Thursday May 10th, 2012 @ 7:30pm

Most  illnesses are due to poor nutrition, lifestyle, toxicity, and stress.  However, making an effective plan to treat health problems, or to prevent them, can take a lot of trial-and-error and waiting from a generalized medical approach to health.   At this seminar, learn about the strength and effectiveness of integrating a naturopathic medical treatment plan that brings about the best health for you and your family, from an individualized approach.  Case examples will be discussed; topics will include naturopathic nutrition, detoxification options, herbal medicine, homeopathy, hydrotherapy, and updated ways of testing and monitoring.
