Core Naturopathic Treatments: Dr. Wallace routinely uses many core naturopathic treatment methods including clinical nutrition, botanical & herbal medicines, traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, physical medicine and lifestyle counselling.
Naturopathic Testing: Knowledge is invaluable when treating difficult cases and laboratory testing can provide critical insights into your health. Dr. Wallace routinely uses common blood tests such as the complete blood count (CBC), thorough thyroid testing, inflammatory markers, nutrient levels (iron, B12, vitamin D…), cholesterol and triglyceride levels, blood glucose, insulin and more. When indicated, she also performs urinalyses and gynaecological testing including Pap tests and cultures.
Sometimes more advanced testing is helpful to obtain further insights into your health. In these cases Dr. Wallace is able to utilize food sensitivity testing, hormone testing, comprehensive stool analyses, parasite testing, hair-mineral analysis and heavy metal testing.
Naturopathic Cold & Flu Clinic: Available annually, this herbal & homeopathic immune booster can be used to help protect you and your family against colds and flus throughout the winter months. It is safe for seniors and children and is taken by mouth, not through an injection. Although October & November are the most popular months for immune boosting, the “Cold & Flu Clinic” is available year round. You will also receive information on lifestyle and nutritional techniques for cold & flu prevention.
