"I believe that sport offers people the opportunity to creatively express who they are as individuals.  As someone who works with athletes, I want to help them harness their life force, their will, and desire to reach the greatest expression of that potential."

THE NATUROPATHIC ADVANTAGE - Sports Medicine

Naturopathic Medicine is the ideal fit for athletes on a quest for elite athletic performance through optimal health.  Sport offers us the opportunity for self exploration through mind, body, and spirit.  At Butterfly Naturopathic, we bring a holistic perspective on training, injury recovery, and long term health sustainability.  In sport, mental focus and concentration is as important as the physical mechanics of the body.  In this field, we need to be able to help our patients address the mental blocks that prevent them from delivering their optimal performance.  For the physical body, our combined treatment approach really delivers because you potentially have someone who can offer you what would require a dietician, physiotherapist, chiropractor, acupuncturist, nutritionist, and family doctor all at once.  We have so many modalities at our disposal that can help with training, optimizing nutrition and diet, injury prevention & recovery.  I believe that sport offers people the opportunity to creatively express who they are as individuals.  As someone who works with athletes, I want to help them harness their life force, their will, and desire to reach the greatest expression of that potential.
The need for Naturopathic Medicine in athletic performance is paramount.  Our combined therapy approach saves you time and money, and allows you to return to play faster and to maximize your athletic performance.
