A Naturopathic Doctor Mom on A Mission
Naturopathic medicine is taking the Down syndrome World by storm
Praise for Dr. Candace Mathers
Dr. Candace Mathers ND, MSAc
Dr. Candace Mathers ND, MSAc
A whole person-centered approach treats each person as an individual with unique needs. All too often people with Down syndrome have been been given poor quality care because doctors expect people with Down syndrome to be unhealthy. With whole person centered care, we address all components of an individual: mind, body, and spirit. This can include correcting nutritional deficiencies, stress management, improving sleep hygiene, encouraging more physical activity, herbal medicine, and so much more!
A Naturopathic doctor is a doctor trained in the healing of the human body. Licensed Naturopathic doctors learn about anatomy, physiology, pathology, microbiology, biochemistry, pharmacology, and most other subjects that medical doctors learn. Licensed Naturopathic doctors also learn about nutrition, hydrotherapy, physical medicine, herbal medicine, and many other modalities that help support the body. A licensed Naturopathic doctor must attend a 4 year post-graduate naturopathic medical school, sit for and complete 2 licensing board exams. Dr. Candace Mathers holds her license to practice naturopathic medicine in the state of Vermont.
While this information is geared towards parents and care-givers of individuals with Down syndrome, this information can be used by any individual with thyroid concerns.
At this time, there is no known 'cure' for Down syndrome but the poor health often seen in people with Down syndrome is due to nutritional deficiencies, improper immune system function, and free radical damage to many organs systems. While naturopathic medicine can't 'turn off' the genetic condition of Down syndrome, a naturopathic approach can support the body with proper nutrition, lifestyle, and replace needed antioxidants resulting in a happy healthy child with unlimited potential.
You'll learn what the thyroid is, how it works and why it's important for your child's health. More importantly, you'll learn why the conventional approach to thyroid health doesn't always work for people with Down syndrome and how naturopathic medicine can address thyroid health through diet, lifestyle changes, supplementation, and herbal medicine.
As a Naturopathic doctor and Down syndrome mom, I get so many comments of disbelief when people meet my daughter. They wonder how she's so smart, healthy, and independent! I want every individual with Down syndrome to thrive too. Creating this course gives the greatest number of Down syndrome parents and care givers access to the wonderful world of naturopathic medicine.
The information in this course is for educational purposes only. You should talk with your trusted health care professional before starting any regimen.
I do work with families who crave extra support if they so choose. You can visit https://www.lifeblossomwellness.com or email [email protected] for more information.
