Naturopathic Services
Our board-certified naturopathic doctor, Dannielle MacDuff, offers many health and wellness related services, including but no limited to:
Acupressure - Similar to Acupuncture, acupressure uses the concept that energy flows through certain meridians in the body. In an acupressure treatment, pressure is applied to specific acupuncture points in order to clear blockages in certain meridians.
Reflexology - Reflexology is similar to acupressure in concept, in reflexology certain areas are massaged in the hands and feet in order to clear blockages. The specific areas of the hands and feet correspond to different organs of the body.
Iridology - Iridology is a technique in alternative medicine in which the iridologist looks at a person's iris (the colored part of the eye) in order to detect patterns that allow them to determine systems in a person's body that are inflamed, overactive, or otherwise distressed.
Diet and lifestyle coach - Sometimes people need some advice on how to change their diet and/or lifestyle in order to correct health problems or manage their weight. As a certified nutrition consultant, Dr. MacDuff can help people reach their health and wellness goals through proper nutrition. Special diets can be created for your blood type, as well as gluten-free, non-GMO, or vegan diets, and training on juicing.
Midwife - Midwifery is the care of a woman and her child during pregnancy, birthing, and after. Also, this can include routine care of the reproductive systems, gynecological exams, menopausal care, and family planning.
Doula - A doula is a professional that provides a mother with physical and emotional support before, during, and after childbirth. Studies have shown that when a doula is involved, babies are generally healthier and labor is shorter with fewer complications.
Homeopathy - Used to help issues ranging from colds, flues, migraines, ear infections, and sore throat to more chronic conditions like asthma, autism, arthritis, and depressions, homeopathic medicines are made from natural sources like plants and minerals. They are designed to help the body heal itself naturally and safely.
