The body possesses an innate ability to heal itself, after removing obstacles of cure. The body, if given the right internal and external stimuli, can achieve homeostasis or health
This is what sets naturopaths apart from conventional medicine. We seek to understand the root cause of illness, merely than just treating the symptoms
Healing Power of Nature
Identify & Treat the Cause
6 Core Principles of Naturopathy
Life choices will contribute to health or dis-ease within the body. This is important for patients to understand
If you are not sleeping properly, there could be problems with digestion, mood regulation, fatigue, etc
We also seek to prevent disease before it starts. If there is a predisposition to certain illness within your family, we can curb the disease process before it begins

- Dr W has done miracles for me. I have been so well and healthy since seeing her and doing everything she has said, as well as taking all the natural remedies ( vitamins, diet, acupuncture). I will not say I am "cured" but I will say I have never felt this good in all my 50+ years 💗
I highly recommend and have recommended Dr W to all - Dr. Woomer has consistently helped elevate my chronic migraine pain to essentially a minimum through her work. I have always felt extremely comfortable and left feeling calm and relaxed. Being afraid of needles, I was very reluctant to try accpunture but am beyond thankful I did
She is always very accommodating of my work schedule and need of last minute appointments. Highly recommend! - Dr. Woomer has been treating me for a little over a year for stomach issues and psoriatic arthritis. Overall, I feel as though my health has completed a 180 since seeing Dr. Woomer
My stomach issues have subsided dramatically and overall inflammation is down. Her treatment plan was perfect for me and easily manageable. I feel better than I have in a long time thanks to her
Acupuncture
Keep in mind the needles are very very thin, about the same diameter as a piece of hair
Has been practiced for over thousands of years, and is based on the premise that qi, also known as energy, circulates throughout the meridians of the body. When the qi is circulating properly, wellness ensues
However, if energy becomes stagnant, illness can result. This can manifest as pain, weakness, numbness/tingling, edema, headaches, anxiety, digestive complaints, etc.
A common question is, does acupuncture hurt? The quick answer is no, it can cause a pricking sensation upon needle insertion, however, afterwards the most sensation you may experience is a dull ache/throbbing sensation
Improves blood circulation and heart activity
It has a tonic and relaxing effect
Relieves muscle tension, contributes to the disappearance of edema
Improves fertility rates
Improves immunity and performance
Improves sleep and helps to eliminate nervous disorders
Helps with migraines and dizziness
Normalizes the hormonal background and equalizes mood swings

Reviews
- I started seeing Dr Suzanne March 2019; I went looking to get more natural remedies for my asthma and thyroid issues. I was getting asthmatic bronchitis every 6-8 weeks for 2 years and was very tired and aggravated with the medications that I was being put on, especially prednisone

She is always very accommodating of my work schedule and need of last minute appointments. Highly recommend! - Acupuncture was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I was hesitant to try it again because my original experience was less than welcoming, but Dr. Woomer came highly recommended and I am so happy that I met her
She offers a safe space to communicate my health concerns in a calming environment. She has provided me with sound medical advice and helped me overcome many obstacles. Dr. Woomer has helped me with migraines, joint pain, and morning sickness. I strongly recommend her! - I've been receiving acupuncture treatments from Dr. Woomer to help with digestion, stress and migraine relief. I never feel rushed in or out of session. I always feel like I have Dr. Woomer's undivided attention during my treatment and she is very familiar with my case. I am not just a "number"
I find the process to be very calming and I am always extremely relaxed during and after each treatment. Dr. Woomer has also done lots of research on my behalf and provided me with helpful information. She is very knowledgeable and I would highly recommend her! - Dr. Woomer has been treating me for a little over a year for stomach issues and psoriatic arthritis. Overall, I feel as though my health has completed a 180 since seeing Dr. Woomer

I feel better than I have in a long time thanks to her - Thank you for all you have done to help me. From the way I felt when I started coming here until now is like a night and day difference. You truly are an angel and an amazing doctor
I am so thankful for all your help. I haven't felt this good well....ever! Your advice was always spot on and you have such a calming nature. I'm 48 and feeling great and I have you to thank
