Adolescent Health
Many teens are busy with school work, sports, jobs, and their social life, all while navigating their entrance into adulthood. The last thing they should be dealing with is health issues.
We offer adolescent wellness exams to ensure your child is growing and developing normally. Regular and consistent visits create strong, trustworthy relationships among the provider, parent, and child. Consistent visits make it more obvious when something is off and not right. We cover not only their physical well-being but their mental and emotional well-being as well, which is vital in these transition years.
With naturopathic care, we can address current health conditions and focus on prevention together for long-term health.
This is the perfect age to prioritize health and well-being as this is when chronic health conditions begin to get diagnosed.
