For Dr.La, ND and Dr. Lusis, ND's girls recess at home includes lots of jumping around, dancing and doing anything to get their blood moving!

We're curious to know, what do your kids do at "recess"?

🪴Taking care of your health is essential.🪴

🪴Taking care of your health is essential.🪴

Even during lockdown, we are able to continue to care for our patients, either by telemedicine or in-person.

For consultations that can be effectively performed via telemedicine, we are available Monday to Friday. Our team is here to support you during this stressful time.

In-person care continues to be available for the following therapies:

🌿Acupuncture
🌿Bowen therapy
🌿Massage therapy

For in-person appointments, we continue to limit the number of patients in the waiting room to two to allow for physical distancing. We continue to ask patients/clients to come to their appointments on time and on their own to limit the number of people in the clinic. Everyone over 2 years of age is required to wear a mask in the clinic space while we continue to carry out our strict disinfecting protocols to keep our environment safe.

As a responsible team, we continue to monitor our own symptoms and keep the health and safety of each other and our patients/clients top of mind.

For supplement orders, we continue to offer delivery or curb-side pickup during clinic hours.

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out and Clinic owners @dula.nd and @jonahlusis, who are happy to respond.

Thank you everyone. We are all in this together!

Keep well and keep safe.❤️
The TCNM Team

If you’re going to make Vegan Pizza, you need the right vegan cheese. We highly recommend fresh vegan mozzarella by @miyokoscreamery, which melts perfectly and tastes incredible.

Cheers to a #veganuary and vegan cheese that tastes good!

Supporting local businesses is extremely important

Supporting local businesses is extremely important to us as our clinic is independently owned by Dr. Du La, ND and Dr. Jonah Lusis, ND - and we know the struggles many businesses are facing due to the pandemic.

We recently came across this amazing website - www.not-amazon.ca, that makes it even easier now for us to shop local without having to dig around too much on the internet.

There are over 500 local businesses and counting that are exclusively independently owned throughout the city and online.

✨Change your health in 3 months ( That's only 90

✨Change your health in 3 months ( That's only 90 days!)✨

We know being in these unprecedented times + the pressures of a 'new year resolution' and keeping them can be extremely stressful.

Life gets busy and we can easily lose track of our goals, because let’s face it, we tend to put others before ourselves(especially for those parents who are juggling work and kids at home).

But, be rest assured that we can help with putting yourself first and keeping you on track!

Our Health Coaching services will optimize your health, be it improving your body’s ability to remove toxins, returning to a healthy weight or beginning to live a healthier lifestyle in general.

Health Optimization is the tool used for true prevention of illness (as opposed to “early detection” of disease), and is the difference between feeling “not sick”, and feeling great.

Send us a message to schedule your COMPLIMENTARY meet and greet appointment (virtual or in person) with one of our Naturopathic Doctors to see how we can help!
