Naturopathic Physician, discusses what lifestyle factors influence fertility.
If you’re managing a heart condition or are recovering from cardiovascular surgery, you will work with a local cardiologist as well as your local family physician. Or, maybe you want to prevent heart disease or lose weight. Whatever your reason, you may choose to work with a local naturopathic physician in addition to your other heart health providers. A local naturopathic physician is a wellness practitioner who is focused on treating the root causes of your health problems, not just treating the symptoms. Some of the conditions that a local naturopathic physician treats include infertility, heart disease (from Brugada syndrome to atrial fibrillation), stress, digestive disorders, headaches, low iron and osteoporosis. Some of the heart disease treatments that your local naturopathic physician may use include nutritional medicine, homeopathy and acupuncture. If you choose to work with a local naturopathic physician, they can work with your local cardiologist or local family physician to help you manage your heart disease. Your local naturopathic doctor can also work with your other healthcare providers, whether it’s your local registered dietitian, kinesiologist, chiropractor or massage therapist.
