Help Me Choose the Right Naturopathic Appointment
Not sure which appointment is right for you?
This simple guide helps you pick the best fit for your goals — whether it’s your first visit, a follow-up, or a specific treatment like acupuncture or cosmetic rejuvenation.
First Time Visiting?
Choose: Basic Health Assessment (90 minutes)
If this is your first time seeing our naturopathic doctor — or if it’s been more than a year since your last full assessment — start here.
You’ll receive:
A comprehensive review of your medical history, lifestyle, and current concerns
Discussion of lab work or diagnostic tests (if needed)
A customized plan to begin your journey toward better health
Perfect for: New patients, complex cases, or those ready to take a holistic look at their health.
Continuing Care
Choose: Progress & Treatment Follow-Up (60 minutes)
If you’ve already had your initial visit, this appointment allows time to:
Review progress and update your plan
Adjust supplements, diet, or acupuncture treatment
Address new or ongoing concerns
OR
Progress Tracking Follow-Up (30 minutes) — a shorter option for focused check-ins or quick updates on your treatment plan.
Perfect for: Returning patients managing ongoing health goals.
Annual or Preventive Health Check
Choose: Physical Exam & Report (60 minutes)
This comprehensive visit goes beyond vitals — it’s a full-body wellness snapshot.
Ideal for those looking to track and understand key health markers such as:
Blood pressure and cardiovascular health
Lung and respiratory assessment
Ear, nose, and throat exam to check hearing, sinuses, and overall ENT health
Eye and vision screening for early detection of issues
Abdominal and musculoskeletal exam to evaluate organ health, posture, and flexibility
Reflex and neurological check for nerve balance and coordination
Skin and lymphatic observation for early warning signs and vitality markers
You’ll receive a written summary report outlining your findings, results, and personalized recommendations for preventive care and long-term wellness.
Perfect for: Annual check-ups, early detection, and establishing a health baseline for future naturopathic treatments.
Acupuncture Treatments
Choose:
Acupuncture Initial (45 minutes) — if it’s your first acupuncture session
Acupuncture Follow-Up (30 minutes) — for continued treatments and progress tracking
These sessions include gentle needling, relaxation techniques, and holistic guidance.
Perfect for: Pain relief, stress management, hormonal balance, or sleep support.
Cosmetic Acupuncture
Choose:
Cosmetic Acupuncture Initial (120 minutes) — your first session, including assessment and full treatment
Cosmetic Acupuncture Follow-Up (90 minutes) — for continued rejuvenation and maintenance
These treatments promote skin vitality, tone, and glow — naturally.
Perfect for: Those seeking natural facial rejuvenation and inner radiance.
Prefer to Meet Virtually?
Choose: Virtual Consultation
Ideal for those who live outside the area (still local to Ontario) or prefer online care. You’ll still receive a thorough consultation and a personalized plan — all from the comfort of home.
