Our Naturopathic Doctors prioritize personalized and proactive healthcare by utilizing lab tests alongside comprehensive interpretation. This philosophy is in perfect harmony with the core principles of naturopathic medicine, which revolve around addressing the underlying causes of health conditions and fostering patient empowerment in their well-being journey.

As an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture harnesses the body’s innate capacity for self-healing through gentle stimulation of ultra-fine needles. Beyond its reputation for managing injuries, pain, and tension, acupuncture proves effective for addressing and supporting a wide range of health imbalances, facilitating your body’s return to a state of harmony. Our licensed Naturopathic Doctors administer acupuncture treatments gently with expertise and care.
Cupping therapy, an ancient practice rooted in traditional medicine, involves the application of suction cups to specific areas of the body. This therapeutic technique offers a range of potential benefits, including pain relief, improved circulation, and muscle relaxation for individuals seeking alternative approaches to health and wellness. All of our naturopathic doctors can use cupping alone or in conjunction with acupuncture treatment appointments and our chiropractor Dr. John Varga can use this technique in your chiropractic appointments with him. Ask your HIH practitioner for more information.
Kinesiotherapy taping of joints, a technique rooted in the principles of kinesiology and physical therapy, offers a range of benefits in promoting joint stability, mobility, and overall musculoskeletal health. Laser therapy, also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or cold laser therapy and ultrasound therapy are increasingly incorporated into chiropractic care to provide a non-invasive and drug-free approach to pain management and tissue healing. These therapies can complement traditional chiropractic adjustments by synergistically addressing pain and inflammation. Combining these modalities may enhance overall treatment outcomes. Our chiropractor Dr. John Varga has additional training and certification to add these supportive tools to your chiropractic appointment when indicated.
Vitamin B12 injections offer a potent and efficient means of addressing deficiencies and promoting overall well-being.

Any of our ND team can discuss the benefits and refer within our team for injection appointments as needed. Ask your HIH ND more about the benefits of this support and if it is a good addition to your care plan.

Thank you all for your support!
My sister and I have both suffered with consistent and painful indigestion in our adulthood. My sister went to her doctor and was prescribed a medication she has used for nearly 2 years and still struggles to eat meal. I went to Dr. Melanie and was told which vitamins and natural supplements to take. After only 4 months I no longer suffer with the symptoms and my indigestion is gone. The problem wasn't just masked but it was solved with natural products and I would suggest the professional services of Dr. Melanie as a first resource.
A very welcoming clinic with incredible breadth of services. I have had experience with naturopath, acupuncture, chiropractic and massage. All have been delivered capably and professionally. Love this clinic!
"The first thing I noticed about Dr Meaghan is how intently she listens. She cares about the person she’s sitting across from and is processing for clues in your conversations as to how she can help. She’s personable and very knowledgeable. What a great combo!
Dr Meaghan is the only naturopath I’ll be referring my network to for proactive and holistic health care."
"Dr Shelly Linehan is one of those wonderful people in my life who is extremely knowledgeable and intuitive. In particular she impressed me by resolving an issue that had plagued me for years. Treatment could be as simple as needing a supplement or remedy. Or sometimes formal testing is required. That critical thinking and diligence has been a game changer for me. She’s bright, friendly and supportive. I trust her implicitly with my health."
"A clinic with a lovely atmosphere and a professional, caring interdisciplinary team. I appreciate Dr. Hudson’s personalized approach and attention to detail. Sunny is a wonderful osteopath. Thank you!"
Awesome clinic, very welcoming and Dr. Hudson is amazing at explaining all your needs, very personable and professional staff. I would highly recommend!

Personalized Care
Everyone’s health status is unique, our team of licensed professionals customize their recommendations to suit your specific needs supporting more effective treatments and better outcomes.
Integrated Care Team
Facilitating communication between different healthcare professionals involved in a patient’s care, such as our naturopathic doctors, chiropractors and osteopathic practitioners, can lead to a more coordinated approach in one convenient location.
Open Evenings and Weekends
Offering healthcare services during evenings and weekends can greatly enhance accessibility and convenience for patients. This extended availability can be particularly beneficial for individuals who have busy work schedules, family commitments, or those who may require medical attention outside of typical business hours.
Online Scheduling
Providing an easy-to-use online platform for patients to schedule appointments can reduce wait times and streamline the appointment booking process. It also functions as a patient portal when you can download lab results or supporting resources your provider shares with you, see your invoices, appointment history and book family members.
Direct Billing
Direct billing simplifies the payment process for patients by allowing healthcare providers to bill insurance companies directly for the services rendered, reducing the financial burden on patients, as they only need to pay their portion of the costs upfront, if applicable, and saves time. Patients don’t need to go through the process of paying upfront, submitting claims themselves, and waiting for reimbursement when their policies accept direct billing through the direct billing services we use.
In-Clinic and Virtual Care Options
Our naturopathic doctors and registered psychotherapist are able to provide consultation services both in-person at our location and remotely through secure phone or video calling to allow for more ease and accessibility of care.
