Dr. Kathy Graham ND & Will Graham
Naturopathic medicine blends centuries-old natural and non-toxic therapies with modern scientific knowledge in the practice of healthcare. It is based on the healing power of nature and it supports and stimulates the body’s ability to heal itself.
As I approach my seventh decade of life, I have come to understand the ingredients for good health: nourishing foods, clean water, exercise and rest, nature, fresh air, loving relationships, community, spiritual wellness, avoiding toxins, and using simple therapies.
For the first decade of my healthcare career, I worked as a critical care RN in high risk settings and taught critical care neurological nursing.
My own health improved with a broader healthcare approach through naturopathic medicine, which precipitated a change in my healthcare careers long ago. For almost 4 decades now, I have been involved in naturopathic medicine.
Health is a journey, and transformation is possible in every phase of life. I would be honoured to help assist you on your wellness journey.
