Additional Information

When one thinks of “male diseases”, the focus is primarily on disorders of the genital urinary organs which are unique to men. However statistically, men experience higher rates of heart disease, cancer, chronic lung disorders, liver diseases and diabetes than their female counterparts, all of which contribute to an average life expectancy 7 years less than women.

Men are less likely to seek medical attention than women, especially for minor problems which may serve as warning signs for more serious underlying illness. This in turn translates to higher morbidity and mortality rates due to the advanced state of the disease when it is eventually discovered. Social and economic pressures, as well as a lack of understanding as to what constitutes normal function, also contribute to these dismal statistics.

An emphasis on education, disease prevention and wellness programs has been shown to enhance not only life expectancy, but one’s quality of life as well. Comprehensive individualized wellness programs are available for all patients of all ages.

Our Rockwood Naturopathic physicians receive extensive training in the use of natural substances to treat illnesses. These include homeopathic medicines, botanical medicines, vitamins and minerals. Each of these substances play an important role in restoring health and, when prescribed specifically for the presenting illness, do so gently and without the side effects encountered with drug therapy.

Because naturally derives medicines have relatively fewer side effects than drugs, and are readily available over-the-counter, many people take a large number of them on a daily basis. While this is generally beneficial, taking to many of them may have potential side effects. It is recommended that a review of them should periodically be undertaken with your naturopathic physician.

Rockwood Natural Medicine Clinic maintains a natural pharmacy utilizing proprietary brands (only those sold to physicians offices) of the highest quality. The natural pharmacy is maintained to provide convenience in obtaining these medicines for our patients. However, patients may choose to obtain these medicines elsewhere and should feel free to do so.

Specialities

The use of acupuncture and moxibustion have been important components of Chinese Medicine since 500 BC and have only recently (within the last 200 years) been introduced into western medicine. Based upon the theory that energy flows in patterns around the body through “meridians”, an interruption of this flow results in symptoms of disease. Once this pattern is recognized, tiny needles are inserted at points along the meridian to restore the normal balance of energy flow throughout the body. In the process, the patient’s health is restored.

Acupuncture can be performed either along the numerous body meridians, or on ear points in a technique termed auricular therapy. A variety of conditions can be treated with acupuncture such as allergic reactions, asthma, bronchitis, cystitis, diarrhea, dysmenorrhea, headaches, hypertension, insomnia, muscle pain, stomach aches and toothache, to name a few. Additionally, acupuncture has been found to be very effective for stopping smoking or withdrawing from prescription or other drugs, as well as for the management of pain.

At one time or another most everyone has experienced an allergic reaction such as hives, urticaria or contact dermatitis, or as sneezing, runny nose or difficulty breathing. The symptoms associated with allergies vary among individuals but are the body’s attempt to counteract the environmental or food allergen. A variety of diagnostic procedures are available to elicit the offending agent that may be used by the physician, or the doctor may choose to conduct an elimination and reintroduction program which also helps identify offending allergens.

Programs to diagnose and treat allergies are developed for the individual patient and may include homeopathic desensitization, immune system enhancement, dietary changes, and macro-nutrient administration. Depending upon the type of allergy present, whether it is an acute or chronic problem, and how long the person has suffered with it, patients can expect a gradual return to health as well as strategies as to how to avoid potential allergens.
