Naturopathic Medicine

Naturopathic Medicine is a distinct health profession that combines the wisdom of nature with modern medicine. It aims to treat a person with an individualized approach, and helps identify roadblocks that stand in the way of healing. Focusing on Body, Mind and Spirit, naturopathic medicine treats a person as a whole. A naturopathic doctor is a primary care provider who diagnoses, treats and prevents acute and chronic conditions by stimulating the body’s innate ability to heal and achieving optimal health.

principles and philosophy of naturopathic medicine

From the words of Dr. Kristina Mokhir, ND

“What makes naturopathic medicine effective is a unique perspective on health and a comprehensive treatment plan going beyond pill prescriptions and 15-minute appointments. Naturopathic medicine combines the best of both worlds, modern science with alternative healing arts. Sometimes we need an opportunity, a unique perspective and a bit of time for healing to happen. I wish for you to experience the many benefits of naturopathic medicine in your healing. My treatment approach is individualized, focusing on finding the root cause of illness and paying attention to your experience. We are all unique and our medical care should reflect this. If you ever considered exploring naturopathic medicine, would like a different, more natural approach to your condition(s) or simply are looking to improve your health & well-being, it would be my pleasure to help you along your healing journey”.

Dr. Kristina Implements classical Naturopathic Therapies such as

Whole Plants To Treat Whole People

Botanical Medicine is both gentle yet powerful. Using herbal remedies is one of many naturopathic tools which can help treat acute or chronic conditions and to support the body in preventing illnesses. It is a healing technique that has been practiced by many cultures throughout history and is inherently in tune with nature. Many botanicals have led to the discovery of various medications (Examples include aspirin (from willow bark), digoxin (from foxglove), quinine (from cinchona bark), and morphine (from the opium poppy), and scientists continue to learn from plants today. Unlike medication, plants retain all the constituents that work together, enhancing the benefits of one another while also reducing the side effects. Botanical medicine uses whole plants to treat whole people.

Nutritional Supplements

Supplementing diet for health maintenance, disease prevention & treatment

Dietary supplements help complement our diet by providing easily absorbable nutrients that we otherwise may not be getting enough from our diets. This can be due to nutrient depletion in food or malabsorption. Nutritional supplements at therapeutic dosages can help treat and prevent various ailments as well as optimize health. Dr. Kristina Mokhir is especially knowledgeable in nutrition and nutritional supplements as her background includes an honours degree in Nutrition and Nutraceutical Sciences along with over 10 years of experience in the supplements industry.

“To get the most benefit from nutritional supplements, you have to know which ones YOU need, use the right dose and be sure it doesn’t have any interactions”-Dr. Kristina Mokhir, ND

Unique Medical System

Homeopathic medicine is a unique medical system that was developed in Germany by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann more than 200 years ago. It is one of the most gentle forms of natural medicine and can help with both acute and chronic conditions. Very small amounts of natural substances are used to stimulate the body’s healing response. Working on multiple levels including mental, emotional and physical, homeopathy provides a wholistic approach to healing.

Homeopathic Medicine

He [the physician] is likewise a preserver of health if he knows the things that derange health and cause disease, and how to remove them from persons in health.

— Samuel Hahnemann

TMJ Relief + Rejuventation

Buccal massage is an advanced face massage technique effective for relieving the symptoms of TMJ but also for aesthetic benefits. The word “buccal” means relating to or located in the cheeks or mouth. It is a form of intraoral massage that helps to normalize the facial muscles’ muscle tone, especially the muscles involved in mastication. Aesthetic benefits of buccal massage include improving the facial contour, reducing nasolabial folds and jowls, improving blood and lymphatic flow and as a result skin texture, colour and tone.
