Epigenetic’s and Natural Medicine: How Lifestyle Shapes Your Health Beyond Genetics.
What Is Epigenetics?
Your genes may set the foundation, but they don’t determine your destiny. The environment and lifestyle choices you make from nutrition and sleep to stress management and movement influence how your genes express themselves. This is the science of epigenetics, where biology meets everyday decisions.
A Whole‑Body Approach to Wellness
As a Naturopath, Nutritionist, and Medical Herbalist, I help you unpack what’s driving your symptoms and build a plan that fits your life. That means supporting:
Skin health
Hormones and endocrine balance
Nervous system resilience
Digestive function
Cardiovascular health
Energy levels
…and whatever else your body is asking for.
How We Work Together
We start with:
Thorough case‑taking to understand your health history
A 3‑day diet diary to see how food impacts your body
Lab work when needed (or reviewing what you already have)
From there, I develop strategies in natural medicine that are practical, evidence‑based, and tailored to your unique needs and goals.
Tracking Progress and Results
We check in monthly (or as needed) to track your progress, make tweaks as things shift, and keep your care aligned with your life. Recently, I’ve worked with incredible clients who followed their plans with commitment, and I’ve collaborated with Specialists and GPs to create whole‑person care that delivers powerful results.
I can’t wait to work with you too 🤍
