A local naturopathic physician is a medical professional who is focused on getting to the root cause of a patient’s health issue, not solely the symptoms. A local naturopathic physician uses a variety of techniques to treat patients, including acupuncture, nutritional medicine and holistic medicine. From managing a chronic condition such as arthritis, breast cancer or low testosterone to improving your immune system, a local naturopathic doctor can help you manage your health. If your local family physician feels that you can benefit from seeing a local naturopathic physician, they can refer you. Or, you can make your own appointment. 

Acupuncture is also another great treatment option expecting mothers can use to help alleviate some of their symptoms. In addition to treating nausea and vomiting, it can be used to help manage stress levels as well as treat heartburn and other gastrointestinal disorders.
