🎉 Celebrating a Century of Naturopathic Medicine: OAND Centennial Gala

On Saturday, October 25, 2025, the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors (OAND) hosted a remarkable Centennial Gala at the Toronto Congress Centre, commemorating 100 years of regulated Naturopathic medicine in Ontario.

The evening commenced with a Fireside Chat moderated by Cheryl Hickey, delving into the integration of Naturopathic Doctors into team-based care to address healthcare provider shortages and enhance patient access across Ontario.

One of our team members, Dr. Alanna Kuhn, ND, attended the gala and had the opportunity to connect with colleagues from across the province. Dr. Kuhn, has been a registered member of the College of Naturopaths of Ontario, and an active member of the OAND and the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors since 2013.

This centennial celebration not only honoured the rich history of naturopathic medicine but also highlighted its evolving role in Ontario's healthcare landscape. Here's to the next 100 years of growth, collaboration, and healing. 🌿

🌿 Adaptogenic Herbs: Nature’s Stress Support 🌿

Stress is hard to avoid these days—whether it’s from work, life, or everything in between. That’s where adaptogens come in. ✨

Adaptogens are herbs that help your body adapt to stress—physical, mental, emotional, or even environmental. They work by balancing stress hormones (like cortisol), calming the nervous system, and supporting your immune health.

✨ Popular Adaptogens + Benefits

Ashwagandha 🌙: Lowers cortisol, eases anxiety, supports sleep & stamina

Rhodiola💡: Boosts focus, clarity & energy

Panax Ginseng 🔥: Enhances endurance & fights fatigue

Maca Root 💕: Balances hormones, uplifts mood & libido

Licorice Root 🌱: Adrenal & immune support during chronic stress

Astragalus 🛡️: Strengthens immunity

💡 Different adaptogens can be helpful at different stages of stress:

Feeling wired & overwhelmed? → Ashwagandha to calm

Burned out & drained? → Ginseng or Licorice for energy

👉 Always talk to a healthcare provider before starting adaptogens—especially since each herb works differently for each body. .ramniqueubhi can help you choose the right fit.

🌸 Which adaptogen have you tried (or are curious about)?

☀️ Why Vitamin D Injections?

Did you know that many Canadians struggle to maintain healthy vitamin D levels, especially through the darker months? Low vitamin D has been linked with fatigue, low mood, immune challenges, and poor bone density.

💉 Vitamin D injections are a fast and effective way to restore optimal levels—delivered directly for maximum absorption.

✨ Clinically supported benefits include:

Supporting bone density and calcium absorption

Enhancing immune system regulation

Improving mood and cognitive function

Supporting muscle strength and function

Reducing risk of vitamin D deficiency symptoms

If you’ve been told your vitamin D levels are low, this could be the therapeutic boost your body needs.

📅 Book your vitamin D injection today and give your health some sunshine—even on cloudy days!

~ Medical Gaslighting ~

Too often, women walk into a doctor’s office with very real concerns—pain that doesn’t go
away, unexplained weight gain, fatigue that makes daily life impossible—and are told:

➡ “It’s just stress.”
➡ “You’re probably overreacting.”
➡ “Let’s just wait and see.”

This is medical gaslighting. It dismisses symptoms, delays answers, and puts women at risk.

In my work with women, I teach tools to push back against this culture of dismissal:

🔥 Be specific and firm.
Not “I just don’t feel right.” Instead: “This pain has lasted three months, and it interferes with my ability to care for my family.”

🔥 Shift the responsibility back.
Ask: “If you don’t think this is serious, can you explain why?” or “What tests would rule out more serious conditions?”

🔥 Bring evidence.
Track pain levels, fatigue, or weight changes over time. A log makes it much harder for
providers to wave away your experience.

🔥 Set boundaries in the room.
Say: “I don’t feel heard when my concerns are minimized. I need a clear next step before I leave
today.”

🔥 Know when to walk away.
If a provider continues to dismiss you, seeking a second opinion is not only your right—it’s an act of self-protection.

Women do not owe healthcare systems silence or compliance. We owe ourselves safety,
answers, and respect.

👉 Medical gaslighting is systemic, but change begins when women refuse to accept dismissal as “normal care.” Your body deserves to be taken seriously.

🧂 Za’atar: The Super Spice Blend You Need in Your Kitchen 🌿

Za’atar is more than just a delicious Middle Eastern seasoning — it’s a nutritional powerhouse with a rich history of healing.

✨ What’s in it?
Za’atar typically includes:
– Thyme 🌱 – antimicrobial, antioxidant-rich, and great for immunity
– Oregano 🌿 – supports digestion and has antibacterial properties
– Sumac 🍋 – high in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds
– Toasted sesame seeds – full of healthy fats, calcium & zinc
– Sea salt 🧂 – enhances flavour and provides trace minerals

🌟 Health Benefits:
This earthy, tangy blend can:
✔️ Support gut health & digestion
✔️ Boost the immune system
✔️ Help regulate inflammation
✔️ Provide a rich source of minerals & antioxidants
✔️ Balance blood sugar levels (thanks to the fiber & healthy fats)

👉 Sprinkle Za’atar on roasted veggies, salads, eggs, hummus, or mix with olive oil as a dip for bread. However you use it, your taste buds and your body will thank you.

💚 Nutrient-dense eating can be simple and delicious.

~ MEET OUR TEAM ~

Hi, I'm Zoe!

I have eight years of experience working with women from preconception to postpartum to the early years of parenting. I truly believe that motherhood and women's health are public health issues that are incredibly worth our time and attention. I have seen firsthand the incredible, life-changing impacts of mental health care on a woman's quality of life.

In my work, I draw from approaches such as CBT, DBT, attachment theory, emotion-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and mindfulness-based practices to best support each person’s unique journey. In addition to supporting women, I also work with couples navigating challenges and provide parent coaching to strengthen the whole family.

I look forward to meeting with you and supporting your health journey—wherever you are coming from 🙂
