_“Naturopathic
medicine is more than just medicine – it is a way of life.”
Ashima
Suneja has attained a Bachelor of Science from the University of Toronto and the
Naturopathic Doctor (ND) from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine.
When
faced with her own health concerns at a young age, she realized that a holistic
approach to medicine, encompassing Mind, Body and Spirit is essential to being
healthy. Ashima’s approach to naturopathic medicine is very eclectic.
All aspects of an individual (mental, emotional, physical and spiritual) are
taken into consideration to determine where an imbalance may be causing
distress. Ashima’s philosophy on treatment and prevention: it needs to
be seen as a team effort, where all parties involved invest time and energy to
achieve the goal of overall health. Ashima’s preferred modalities of
treatment include Traditional Chinese Medicine (including acupuncture),
Nutritional Counselling, Botanical Medicine, Lifestyle Counselling, Homeopathy,
Hydrotherapy, Reiki and Cranio-sacral therapy.
Along with practicing
and teaching a variety of nutrition courses at The Canadian School of Natural
Nutrition, Ashima founded Magnolia Wellness – a corporate wellness program
catering to the health of companies.
