Our Services

Shelby's philosophy is to treat the whole person. So in addition to the treatment modalities offered as a naturopath, Shelby also lends her expertise in the following areas:

Weight Loss and Lifestyle Counseling

Discover healthy, sustainable weight loss using our unique approach to lifestyle change. Valuable therapeutic lifestyle changes to address conditions such as hypertension, menopause, elevated cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, chronic pain, allergies, fatigue, cancer prevention & treatment, and so much more.

Body Composition Analysis

Ever wonder what your percentage body fat is? Your hydration level? Your cellular health? Our BIA analysis helps us monitor your health improvement over time and is invaluable for our weight loss protocol.

Women's Health

We offer a complete range of women's health services including Pap tests, breast exams and semi-annual breast thermography clinics.

IV Treatments

Intravenous (IV) treatments allow us to get vitamins and nutrients into the body far more quickly, and in greater concentration, than with oral supplements.

Inhalation Therapies

Inhalation therapies are used for cases of acute illness and chronic lung conditions. We employ glutathione, the most highly concentrated antioxidant in lung tissue, along with homeopathic remedies to support respiratory health.

Colon Hydrotherapy

This is a method of bowel cleansing that we have found to be the deepest way to help people detox. A gentle, filtered, temperature-controlled treatment to irrigate the entire large intestine and in doing so takes a large burden off of the liver. We have seen successes with seasonal allergies, autoimmune disease, bowel function irregularity, hormone dysregulation, eczema and more.

Healthy & Active

Healthy & Active is an excellent nutrition program that is tailored to your body. Starting with a simple blood test, we create your plan for personalized nutrition that will help boost your metabolism and maintain weight-loss.
