Naturopathic MedicineHeal as nature intended.
We use data-driven, nature-based medicine to treat the root cause of illness, not just mask its symptoms.
What is a naturopathic doctor?
A naturopathic doctor (ND) is a licensed medical professional trained in both conventional medical sciences and natural, holistic therapies, completing a four-year accredited graduate programme covering anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, pathology, nutrition, botanical medicine and functional medicine.
Rather than a one-size-fits-all visit, NDs spend more time with you, often an hour or more, digging into your full health history, lifestyle, diet, stress and sleep, and they frequently collaborate with medical doctors and nurse practitioners to co-manage your care, so nothing falls through the cracks.
The principles that guide every visit
- Identify and treat the root cause, not just the symptoms
- Treat the whole person, physical, emotional, genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors
- Support the body's natural healing ability through safe, non-invasive therapies
- Educate and empower you to be an active participant in your own health
Root-cause care, coordinated with you.
Naturopathic medicine at KOI is data-driven and collaborative. Here's what working with us actually looks like.
An extended, real consultation
A full hour or more spent on your history, lifestyle, diet, stress and sleep, not a rushed ten-minute visit.
Functional & genetic testing
Comprehensive stool, hormone, thyroid, adrenal, genetic and inflammatory testing to find what's actually driving your symptoms.
A personalised, whole-person plan
Nutrition, targeted supplementation, botanical medicine, stress management and physical medicine, chosen for your results, with conventional medication when it's appropriate.
Collaborative, coordinated care
Your ND works alongside medical doctors and nurse practitioners, cross-checking labs so your plan stays safe and complete.
Mental health & female hormones
Two areas we're asked about most, each with its own dedicated work-up.
A whole-person approach
Conventional care often reaches for medication first. We look at the physical and lifestyle factors, gut health, hormones, nutrient status, that can drive anxiety, depression and brain fog, and treat the underlying cause alongside the symptom.
- Common symptoms: anxiety, depression, mood swings, brain fog and high stress levels.
- Work-up typically includes a full consultation, a food-intolerance evaluation and a comprehensive blood panel.
- Your plan may include nutrition, supplementation, botanical medicine, stress management and nervous-system regulation.
Naturopathic hormone support
We address the root cause of hormonal imbalance and work to restore natural hormone levels, a fit for anyone not a candidate for bioidentical hormone therapy, or simply looking for a natural-first option.
- Common symptoms: mood swings, low libido and energy, brain fog, hot flashes, irregular periods, thinning hair and weight changes.
- Work-up typically includes a full consultation, a food-intolerance evaluation and a DUTCH Complete Hormone Test.
- Your plan may include practitioner-grade supplements, herbal medicine and lifestyle recommendations.

Not at all. Naturopathic care is designed to work in conjunction with what you're already on. We're not here to fight your other doctors, we're here to fill the gaps where your needs aren't being met.
While this approach isn't the right fit for everyone, naturopathic medicine is meant to complement your existing care and fill the gaps where other providers aren't meeting your needs. Many of our NDs can also serve as primary care, if that's what you're looking for.
