Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic Medicine is a distinct primary health care system that blends modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine. Naturopathic medicine is the art and science of disease diagnosis, treatment and prevention using natural therapies including botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, hydrotherapy, homeopathy, naturopathic manipulation, traditional Chinese medicine / acupuncture, and lifestyle counseling.
Naturopathic doctors can also complement and enhance health care services provided by other health care professionals. They cooperate with other branches of medical science referring patients to other practitioners for diagnosis or treatment when appropriate. Naturopathic Doctors provide patients with a truly integrative form of health care.

Osteopathy
Osteopathy is holistic in nature in that it views the body as a total interconnected unit. Osteopathic manual therapy is a gentle hands-on treatment that focuses on removing restrictions and the restoration of movement and function to the entire body in order to restore the body’s natural balance, optimal function, and healing ability.
Osteopathic manual practitioners have a deep understanding of the anatomical and physiological interrelationships of the body, with a goal of restoring proper movement and function to the whole body.
Osteopathic Manual therapy requires a highly refined sense of touch to identify and treat areas of dysfunction that have alterations in tissue texture and tone that may disrupt the overall physiological function and health of the person. Typically, priority in treatment is given to areas of greatest rigidity. The goal of treatment is to facilitate corrections and a full expression of health by working in conjunction with the natural self-regulation and self-healing mechanism of the body. Osteopathy considers the whole person with treatment individualized to determine the underlying cause of the health concern; not just focusing on symptoms.
Common benefits of treatment may include:
Reduced stiffness and muscle tension
Reduced pain
Improved mobility and function,
improved compliance to allow deep breathing
Improved circulation
Reduced anxiety/stress
improved mood
improved energy
improved sleep
improved digestion
improved body awareness and self-care

When you engage in psychotherapy you will explore difficult and painful emotions and identify unhelpful or ineffective patterns of behavior that lead to feeling stuck. Psychotherapy offers a confidential, safe and non-judgmental space to discuss the things you may not feel comfortable discussing with other people. Through a collaborative process with your therapist, you will identify negative thinking patterns and ineffective behaviors, while developing a deeper understanding of how these thoughts and beliefs about yourself have come to be. In addition, you will learn new and effective ways of coping that will help you to achieve your goals and move forward in life.
At Lemon Water Wellness, psychotherapy is done with compassion using a holistic and multi-disciplinary approach targeting all the factors that contribute to mental health issues so that clients can experience long lasting progress.
