Back from Maternity Leave 2.0!

It’s been just over a year since my baby girl sprung an early arrival and since I’ve been on maternity leave! I’m now back at Nature Doctors, excited to book appointments! Dr. Deirdre Jasper ND has been amazing throughout this year, and I hope you’ve had the chance to connect with her while I’ve been on leave. If not, I’m more than happy to pick up where we’ve left off and continue to collaborate on your

Birth Announcement – Early Arrival!

After much anticipation of an April due date, my baby decided to arrive 1 month early in March! To my surprise, we had a little girl, Ivy Maude Evea (pronounced Uh-vay-ah). Born in a hurry with an incredible birth, we received difficult news shortly after that she had a congenital diaphragmatic hernia. This condition came as a surprise and meant she needed to be in the NICU and required surgery to repair her diaphrag

Loving New Nature Doctors Location!

It’s been a few months now since I made the move to Nature Doctors from Wolseley Wellness Centre, and it’s going really well! I love working with so many talented Naturopathic Doctors – being able to share info and updates in health on a regular basis, as well as bounce ideas and questions off colleagues in real time. It’s been such a nice break to be able to show up to work, focus on being a naturopathic doctor, and

Moving my Practice Location

It is with excitement and anticipation I’m announcing a significant change in my Naturopathic practice. Starting November 4th 2015, I will be joining the multifaceted clinic, Nature Doctors! This decision has been a difficult one, as Wolseley Wellness Centre and its team of amazing practitioners has been ‘home’ for nearly 8 years! I’ve loved being here, in this community, and among such great therapists. This d

New Hours – Starting Summer

It’s been quite some time since my last post…and reflective of a busy-busy fall, winter and spring! So, it’s time for a little transition in work hours to better balance work and home life. I will still be in-office 2 full days per week, and actually available for more hours of appointments per week! Starting June 23rd, I’ll be in-office Tuesdays and Wednesdays all day and into part of the eve

Cream of Mushroom Soup – Immunity for our Gut!

This week’s theme food for our family has been mushrooms! With the air becoming more brisk, the earthiness of these little bite-size morsels tend to call out to my taste buds. And when I made the declaration earlier this week to my husband, “I’m really into mushrooms lately!”, he knew a health benefit was on the tip of my tongue. And so there was… Edible & medicinal mushrooms have ma

My New Newsletter!

Since the Canadian government’s Anti-spam legislation came into effect this summer, I thought it was high time to have a new and easier to read platform for my newsletters and clinic announcements. As existing patients, you’ve agreed to receive communication and newsletters by providing your email address. This is the most effective way for me to provide important information about changes in the clinic, my practice

Preventing this Fall’s Colds and Flus

On the heels of my last post which laid out how ND’s (Naturopathic Doctors) treat acute health problems…this one is about prevention! Hehe! Every year, we hear about colds and flus and taking action to prevent these illnesses. It can seem hum drum most of the time (and somewhat common sense). Wash your hands, cover your sneeze, keep up your fluids, & rest at home. Got it. Okay, anything else I can do? Maybe

ND’s Treat Acutes?!

In a matter of weeks, it will be cold and flu season. Now picture yourself, watery eyes and runny nose…elbow deep in tissues and wishing you weren’t so achy and chilled. What to do?! Do you suffer through it? Or find someone to run to the pharmacy and grab an assortment of decongestants, pain relievers and fever reducers? OR…do you pick up the phone and call your doctor…your Naturopathic Doctor!? Wa

Maximize Your Summer Wellness

When I think summer, I think patios, lakes, swimming, relaxation, hot weather and long days. (Ok, sure…throw in some mosquitoes and a little too much sun…I am in Manitoba after all!) But the reality is that most of us still work during summer.  And the routine of life, instead of becoming more serene and summer-magical…can become more chaotic! Now, summer is my favourite season. But I’m learni
