I want to try a natural medical treatment, should I see a naturopath physician?
Hi there. If you are interested in natural medicine, a Naturopathic Medical Doctor is a good and appropriate first step for doing so. You want to make sure your choice is a board certified and licensed practitioner ( as I am), because there are still many naturopaths who are not Naturopathic Physicians. That said, let me know if I can be of more help. Thank you. Dr. Jennifer Botwick, ND READ MORE

Can natural remedies treat insomnia?
Sleep. Ah, yes. There are many remedies to aid in insomnia. However, I look at the bigger picture of gut health, stress, use of screen time, food intake, and other factors which can contribute to insomnia. In addition, there are different types of insomnia (for example: no trouble falling asleep, trouble staying asleep; trouble falling asleep, okay once asleep; waking too early, waking often) and each requires a different approach. Hope this helps and sweet dreams! Dr. Jenn READ MORE
How do you use CBD oil for muscle strains?
Quality CBD oil or cream has amazing analgesic effects for sore muscles. There can be no open wound in the area of strain or discomfort. Application of topical oil and/or cream can be liberally used throughout the day and before going to sleep at night; taking caution not to use immediately after a hot shower, bath, sauna, or tub. Our office carries a superb quality CBD cream, let us know if you need to get in touch with us. Thank you. READ MORE
What are some natural ways to relieve allergy symptoms?
Great question as we enter allergy season in many parts of the world. The use of nettles; both in tea and pill form makes a huge difference to combat the allergic response. Many folks also derive relief from reducing and/or eliminating mucus-producing foods; such as dairy and animal products. Spring is a great opportunity to do spring cleaning in our bodies-as we lessen inflammatory foods and exercise outside, we help our body's immune functions. Vitamin C is one of the best ways for our bodies to have healthy defenses. Increase your antioxidant foods, such as all berries, carrots, beets, etc. Look to your natural and colorful foods to provide vitamin C. ( not Skittles)! Lastly, at least 8-10 glasses daily of nonchlorinated spring water. Feel better soon! READ MORE
Are there ways to bring down blood pressure naturally?
Yes, lowering blood pressure is one of the easiest things Naturopathic Medicine can approach. Of course, it is an integration of aspects of Naturopathic Medicine and I'll be glad to help. READ MORE
Is there homeopathic treatment for xanthoma?
Hi.Thanks for your question. There are sublingual pellets and/ or topical homeopathic drops that might be of help. READ MORE
Is the Keto diet healthy?
Diets are not one size fits all and this is not an easy answer. There is much to know. Any "diet" needs to be completely individualized for a person. And, quite frankly, I don't promote "diets", because then we are either "on" a diet or "off". What we eat, how we eat, our lifestyle, happiness, and sleep hygiene are a few of the contributing factors for lifestyle and weight management. I'd love to share variations on the good, better, best nutrition for you. READ MORE
Are there any homeopathic medicines to prevent mono?
Good morning, There is nothing, homeopathic or otherwise, to prevent mono, per se. However, there are nutritional and vitamin supports that can keep your immune system strong. Dr. Botwick READ MORE
