Fatigue isn’t always “just stress.”
Hair loss isn’t always hormonal.
Sometimes, it’s iron 🩸
These are some of the most common symptoms and contributors I see in practice!

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a form of depression that follows a seasonal pattern - most commonly showing up in the fall and winter months when daylight hours decrease ☁️

Less sunlight can disrupt our circadian rhythm, serotonin levels, and melatonin production, all of which play a role in mood, energy, and sleep.

Common SAD symptoms can include:

- Low mood or feeling “flat”
- Fatigue or low motivation
- Increased sleep or difficulty waking
- Sugar/Carb cravings
- Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
- Social withdrawal

Simple lifestyle approaches that may help support mood during darker months:
☀️ Prioritize morning light exposure (natural sunlight when possible) - yes, happy lights/ SAD lamps count!
🚶‍♀️ Gentle daily movement
🕰 Keeping a consistent sleep–wake schedule
🥗 Balanced meals with adequate protein and healthy fats
🧠 Staying socially connected, even when you feel like isolating
🩸 Investigating Vitamin D levels
🕯 Creating cozy, grounding routines that support nervous system regulation

If winter feels harder for you, it’s not a weakness - it’s biology. Small daily habits can make a meaningful difference 🤍

I’m excited to share that I’ll be beginning practice at Gander Chiropractic + Integrated Health! I’m truly grateful for this opportunity and look forward to supporting the community with compassionate, evidence-informed care. Can’t wait to begin this new chapter!

✨Introducing Dr. Emily Burt, ND ✨

Dr. Burt is a licensed Naturopathic Doctor joining Gander Chiropractic Integrative Health and is thrilled to begin offering naturopathic care here in Gander. 🌿💚

She completed her Bachelor of Science at Dalhousie University before earning her Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) in Toronto. Having grown up in Gander, returning to serve her community feels incredibly grounding and full-circle.

Dr. Burt takes an individualized, collaborative approach to care and firmly believes naturopathic medicine works best alongside conventional treatment — not in place of it. She has a special clinical interest in integrative cancer care, supporting individuals through all stages of their cancer journey—from diagnosis and treatment to survivorship. Her approach focuses on improving quality of life, minimizing treatment-related side effects, and helping patients feel more grounded, empowered, and supported during times of uncertainty.

Alongside her oncology-focused work, Dr. Burt maintains a broad general practice, frequently supporting patients with digestive concerns, hormonal imbalances, fatigue, pain, stress, and general wellness goals. Her care is evidence-informed and rooted in clinical nutrition, botanical medicine, lifestyle counseling, and mind-body medicine—blending science with empathy and deep respect for the body’s innate ability to heal.

To celebrate her start at Gander Chiropractic Integrative Health, Dr. Burt is offering 15-minute complimentary meet-and-greet visits for anyone curious about naturopathic medicine or her approach to care. ✨

Dr. Burt is accepting new patients, starting Monday, November 24th! Online booking is now available! ⬇️⬇️
