What is Naturopathic Medicine?

Naturopathic medicine looks at the full picture of a person’s health, not just a diagnosis or isolated symptoms. It asks how different systems in the body interact, and how lifestyle, nutrition, stress, environment, hormones, and past health events may be contributing to what someone is experiencing now.

  • For example, a concern like fatigue isn’t viewed as a single problem. It may be influenced by blood sugar regulation, thyroid function, nutrient status, gut health, sleep quality, infection or chronic stress. Rather than treating fatigue alone, naturopathic care works to identify and address the underlying imbalances driving it.

About Dr. Lapshina

Sunlight shining through a forest, illuminating white wildflowers in the foreground.

My passion for naturopathic medicine grew out of a fascination with nature, physiology, and how the body continuously responds to the environment we live in.

  • In my work, I focus on identifying the core patterns influencing health. My goal during each visit is to clearly explain what is happening in your body, review symptoms and lab work, and outline practical next steps. I believe patients should feel informed, confident, and actively involved in their care. Treatment and education go hand in hand, with an approach that is sustainable, practical, and grounded in sound clinical reasoning.

My Treatment Process

A strategic approach ensures that all aspects of your health are considered.

1

  • We start with an in-depth evaluation of your medical history, lifestyle, and current health concerns. This initial step allows me to gather crucial information about your overall health and identify patterns.

2

  • I use standard bloodwork as well as functional tests to evaluate your symptoms with more precision.

3

  • Based on your assessment and test results, we develop a customized plan tailored to your unique needs. This plan may include dietary recommendations, herbal remedies, nutritional supplements, lifestyle changes, and other natural therapies.

4

  • We continue with regular check-ups to track progress and make adjustments as needed. The goal is to provide recommendations that are realistic and sustainable.
