Clinical Focus
Senior Health
As we people age, we become more susceptible to chronic conditions, physical decline, and cognitive challenges.
Maintaining good health in later years improves quality of life, enhances independence, and reduces the risk of disability. Proper management of physical, mental, and emotional health can also prevent or delay diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and dementia, helping seniors live longer, more fulfilling lives. Promoting healthy lifestyle choices, regular exercise, balanced nutrition, and social connections is key to supporting seniors’ overall well-being.
Naturopathic doctors (ND) can play a key role in supporting seniors’ health by focusing on natural, holistic approaches that emphasize prevention, self-healing, and personalized care.
