\n\t\t\tAbout this episode\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t

Naturopathic medicine has been one of the most powerful modalities I have experienced on my healing journey. I love naturopathy because it is a beautiful bridge between my self-healing practices and conventional medicine. The most beneficial part of working with a Naturopathic Doctor is that they look at the human as a whole; how the body is functioning as a whole, which includes emotional and mental wellbeing. I first met my guest, Dr. Denise Handscomb ND in 2016, about a year into my diagnosis with MS. I had met with multiple specialists by this point in both the fields of Gastroenterology and Neurology for management of my Crohn’s & MS.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, the specialists I had seen had never tied my diseases together, other than noting that they were both Autoimmune. I understand that specialists are just that, highly educated and specialized in one area of the body or disease state, but I truly appreciated Dr. Denise’s approach to treating me as a whole human. I feel I was meant to meet Dr. Denise on my healing journey as she has educated me so much about my body as well as my conditions.<\/p>\n

Today’s podcast is for anyone who is interested in Naturopathy or looking for an alternative path to begin their healing journey! Dr. Denise shares her ‘why’ behind becoming a Naturopath, how she works with conventional medicine practitioners, and easy tips to start you on your healing journey today!<\/p>\n\t\t
