About Dr.Shelby, ND
Shelby is a licensed and registered naturopathic doctor who has been in practice
in her hometown of Collingwood, Ontario since 2004.
"I became a naturopathic doctor because I love to help people feel better. I believe the key to longterm health is learning about our own bodies so we can make educated choices for ourselves."
- Shelby (She/Her)
As a naturopath, Shelby's medical training includes a focus on preventive medicine as well as using safe and effective techniques to restore health to your body. Shelby's philosophy is to treat the whole person - physically, mentally and emotionally, using a variety of treatment modalities including clinical nutrition, botanical medicine, homeopathy, psychological & lifestyle counseling, bio-identical hormones (BHRT) and intravenous (IV) nutrient therapy. Health issues addressed include skin (eg. eczema, rashes), digestion, fatigue, sleep, anxiety, depression, menopause, headaches, recovery from surgery, and age-related memory loss.
The body is an incredible healer when given the correct environment (dietary, lifestyle, spiritual habits) to do so.
Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu said,
The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
The healing path that you embark upon at your first visit with Shelby will be the first step in a very therapeutic journey. The goal is not a temporary quick fix - it is vibrant, sustainable health.
