Support for your health built on a real-life approach to mind-body medicine
Chronic Pain
If you’re looking for a different approach to chronic pain management, biofeedback is a drug-free alternative, proven effective in reducing the severity of chronic pain and improving daily function.
Digestive Health
Your gut is innervated by the enteric nervous system – the so called “second brain”. Because of this, a dysregulated nervous system has a huge impact on your gut health. From IBS to food intolerances, find the support you need to calm your nervous system, repair your gut and find a pattern of eating that supports your mental and physical health.
Depression & Anxiety
If anxiety and depression have you feeling stuck, we can help. Learning to regulate our nervous systems can get us out of persistent patterns of fight-or-flight that can contribute to both anxiety and depression.
Mind-Body Health for Kids
Kids feeling dysregulated? Give your whole family the skills to stay calm, engaged and resilient – no matter what life throws their way.
What is biofeedback?
A simple tool for learning to regulate your nervous system, biofeedback-assisted techniques have been proven to have a wide range of benefits to your health.
A naturopathic clinic that focuses on researched-backed lifestyle interventions
We spend all of our time combing through the latest research and clinical updates so that we can give you up to date advice that is supported by science. When the data is mixed, we can talk you through the risks and benefits of your options based on what we know (and what we don’t know).
But knowing what to do is only half the battle – when it comes to implementing lifestyle changes, most of us struggle to make new patterns stick.
We focus on mindful, gradual behavioral changes that integrate into your real life, right now.
