I am a passionate and caring Naturopathic Physician excited to help others on their journey towards health! If you have never experienced Naturopathic Medicine before and are struggling with your health or looking for alternatives to conventional medications, let me help you in your journey towards a more wholistic approach to optimal health.  With such a broad scope of practice in BC, there are so many different options and avenues in achieving health and wellness.  The beauty of Naturopathic Medicine is looking for the underlying cause of health problems and treating the individual, not the disease, with safe and effective natural approach.  There is a reason more and more individuals are seek complementary health care practitioners ... to complement the health care you are already receiving and treat you as a whole person. 

With a background in Human Kinetics and Exercise Physiology, I have long believed that diet and lifestyle are the foundation of health.  Our bodies are amazing and have a strong innate ability to heal but sometimes we need guidance along the way.  Naturopathic Medicine offers a safe, effective and non invasive way of achieving this. 

The first step towards healing is determining the root cause of your problems and this may not always be so clear.  The body and mind is interconnected and it is my job (with your help!) to try and get to the bottom of your problems.  If you have never been to a Naturopathic Physician before, it is a great opportunity to explore a complementary approach to your health care.  I believe that a combination of conventional and complementary medicine is the medicine of the future.  Let me help you begin your journey towards optimum health.  Call today and start taking charge of your health!  I look forward to working with you!

________________________________
When I first saw Dr. Attema I was unsure how I would feel about  divulging my personal information even though this is why I was going to see her  in the first place to get some guidance and assistance with things.  Upon  our first meeting I quickly realized that this was who I was supposed to see,  and that this was the right person to guide me in my healing path. Her abundance
of knowledge and true heart for helping is why I continue to see her, and I love
that there is no judging just some gentle, yet sometime firm J , guidance back
onto the right track. Every time I leave her office I feel inspired, supported
and ready to continue the care of my own health.
