Did you know common complaints such as a rash, achy joints or fatigue can be caused by adverse reactions to food? Snohomish Naturopathic Clinic offers food sensitivity testing. Imperceptible reactions to common foods (such as wheat, dairy or eggs) can intensify your body's reaction to seasonal allergens as well.
Hormone replacement therapy is a natural solution to menopause or aging symptoms for men and women. Bio-identical hormones have the same molecular structure as naturally occuring sex hormones. A combination of progesterone, estrogen, DHEA and/or testosterone may help alleviate common symptoms such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, sleeplessness or low libido.
Did you know that a naturopathic physician can be listed with your insurance carrier as you primary care provider (PCP)? This will allow us to provide you with well patient care (e.g.; pap smear, well child check, etc.) and refer you to other providers as needed.

SNC offers breast thermography as a radiation-free alternative to mammography. This FDA-approved screening tool is an effective and preferred alternative to mammograms, especially for those with implants or who find standard mammography painful.

Through the integration of Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and modern-day medical diagnostic techniques, it is our goal to help restore your mind, body and spirit to a natural state of equilibrium.
