Northshore ND, Naturopathic Clinic

22/08/2025

Insurance Update- Starting September 1, 2025

Our clinic has been so fortunate to grow alongside our amazing community. With two naturopathic doctors now each caring for a full schedule of patients, our days are full of meaningful conversations and helping you reach your health goals.

With this growth, it’s become harder for our front desk team and doctors to keep up with the time and coordination required for direct billing between two providers.

Starting September 1, 2025, we’ll no longer be offering direct billing through insurance. Payment will be due at the time of your appointment, and you can still submit your receipt directly to your insurance provider—most offer quick and easy online submission, with reimbursement often processed in just a few business days.

This change will help us keep our focus where it belongs—on providing you with the care you deserve. Thank you for your understanding, and for being such an important part of our clinic’s growth.

Always a great event!

Don't forget our open house is coming! This August 30th!

Get a once-a-year "behind-the-scenes" look at our wildlife rescue and rehabilitation facility with tours of our medical facilities, access to our bird and mammal nurseries, our recovery units, the marine unit, and our giant flight cages!

There will also be wildlife displays and demonstrations, activities for the kids, live music, barbecue, a silent auction, as well as local exhibitors, crafts, and food! It is a fun-filled day for the whole family.

All funds raised go to support Hope for Wildlife's efforts to help injured and orphaned wildlife in Nova Scotia.

Check this out!

My first outdoor class of the summer will be in Scotsburn Trailhead Park this Wednesday July 23rd at 7am as part of an awesome line up of community yoga this week and next.

And then join me in greeting the day through movement and breath (and an optional post-yoga swim!) on Toney River Beach on Saturday August 2 & 9 (with maybe more dates to follow).

A gentle flow style with lots of options to adapt the practice to your unique body and needs.
Payment for yoga on the beach: there will be a basket for you to slide your payment into. Suggested fee is $12 per class or pay what you can or not at all. Everyone is welcome!

✨ Introducing StrongHER Summer: 8 Weeks to Feel Good, NOT Perfect ✨
Starts Monday, July 15th
Led by our Health Coach & Hormone Specialist, April Hill

Our Hormone Revive specialty group wrapped up in the spring—but the need for support hasn’t gone anywhere.

That’s why April is back this summer with StrongHER—an 8-week coaching experience designed to help you feel stronger, more energized, and more balanced... without giving up your summer fun (yes, even ice cream, BBQ, or a beer or two 🍻).

This is about real-life wellness:
✔️ No dieting
✔️ No guilt
✔️ No extremes
Just sustainable habits, mindset shifts, and accountability from a coach who understands what women need.

Here’s what you get:
✅ Weekly 1:1 coaching (in person or online – flexible for beach days and camping trips!)
✅ Access to our private coaching app
✅ Summer-friendly nutrition + movement support
✅ A private community of women just like you
✅ Weekly mindset & wellness challenges
✅ Tools and education around hormone health, stress, and habit building

This program is for women who are ready to stop starting over, ditch the all-or-nothing approach, and finally make themselves a priority—even in the busiest season of the year.

You’ll feel better now and be set up for success going into the fall and beyond!

Cost: $349 for the 8 week StrongHER Coaching Program

Optional add-ons available:
👉Unlimited class access + StrongHER Coaching $599
👉Personal training + StrongHER Coaching $799

Let’s feel good this summer—not perfect. 💪

This is such a great program

We’re so excited to be offering our accredited Lynx course for female identifying high schoolers next year! This one is just for the girls, led by outdoorswomen with a passion for fostering a relationship between youth and the natural world. In the fall we’ll camp and canoe and learn to identify plants and trees, in the winter we’ll snowshoe, practise fire making and build shelters, and in the spring we’ll hike, and orienteer, and camp some more! Participants will earn a grade 12 leadership credit, their PCFS Naturalist and Survivalist patches, and a certificate of completion.

Very excited to host this event.

Very excited to be collaborating with Dr. Amy Punke for this powerful, healing 9D breathwork journey.

Releasing & Healing the 5 Primary Trauma Imprints is an immersive exploration dedicated to resolving the imprints of our childhood experiences.

In this journey, we address the profound wounds of premature separation from love, rejection, abandonment, shaming, and lack of presence.

These imprints, carried from our formative years, silently shape our adult lives, revealing themselves through various challenges, including victim mentality, trust and intimacy issues, co-dependency, relationship struggles, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, depression, and more.

By releasing these deeply rooted imprints, you liberate yourself from the burdens of past hurt and suffering. Expect to emerge from this experience with a profound sense of liberation, clarity, and an empowered state of being.
