Our clinic is accessible, with ample parking generally available close to the entrance, making it easy for patients to attend their appointments with minimal hassle.
- Is there anything specific I should bring to my first Naturopathic appointment?
- It's helpful to bring any recent lab work (within the last year or two), a complete list of your medications and supplements (including brand and dose), and your extended health insurance information. Some people also find it useful to fill out any intake forms provided by the clinic beforehand to save time during the appointment.
- Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Naturopathe in QC?
- In Quebec, patients can typically see a Naturopathe (Naturopathic Doctor or Naturopathe) directly without a physician's referral (known as direct access). However, it is advisable to check with your private or extended health insurance provider, as some plans may require a referral for reimbursement purposes. While a referral is not legally mandatory to consult a Naturopathe, verifying your insurance requirements ensures coverage for services.
- What types of conditions do Naturopathes at MonZénith - Zen Solutions&Services address?
- Our Naturopathes address a wide range of health concerns, with a focus on identifying and treating the root cause. This includes, but is not limited to, issues like digestive health (e.g., IBS, food sensitivities), hormonal imbalances, skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis, and immune support. They also provide services like Women's Health & Hormone Balancing, Conventional & Specialized Lab Test Analysis, and lifestyle counseling to help you achieve your health goals.
- Approximately how many Naturopathic sessions will I need?
- The number of Naturopathic sessions required varies greatly depending on the nature and chronicity of your health concerns, your individual health goals, your body's response to treatment, and your commitment to implementing dietary and lifestyle changes. Your Naturopathe will discuss a proposed treatment frequency and timeline after your initial assessment and will continually re-evaluate your progress.
- Are Naturopathic treatments safe?
- When provided by a qualified and licensed/registered Naturopathe, naturopathic treatments are generally very safe. They prioritize therapies with low risk of side effects and are trained to recognize situations where a treatment might not be suitable. Open communication with your Naturopathe about your health and other treatments is essential for safe and effective care.
- Is Naturopathic Medicine covered by the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?
- Generally, naturopathic services provided by a Naturopathic Doctor (ND) in a private clinic are not covered by provincial health plans like RAMQ. Patients usually pay out-of-pocket. However, many private and extended health insurance plans offer varying levels of coverage for services provided by registered/licensed Naturopathic Doctors. It is recommended to check with your insurance provider for specific details.
- What is the difference between a Naturopathic Doctor (ND or Naturopathe) and a Medical Doctor (MD)?
- Medical Doctors (MDs) typically use conventional medicine, including prescription medications and surgery, to treat specific diseases and symptoms. Naturopathes (Naturopathic Doctors or Naturopathe) focus on a holistic approach, aiming to identify and treat the root cause of health issues using natural therapies such as diet, herbs, homeopathy, and lifestyle modifications. Both can work together to support your overall health and wellness.
