Naturopathic Medicine promotes healthy living and well-being through individualized patient care and public education.
The principles of Naturopathic Medicine involve uncovering all of a patient’s various symptoms and tying them together to create a unified picture of what is going on in the body. Treatment involves getting to that root cause and using natural therapies to support and stimulate the inherent capacity of the body to heal. Treatments can be used conjunctively with conventional medicine and manual therapies for greater treatment effect then either route alone.
Dr Kim has a special interest in athletes and active individuals and treating their various health concerns that keep them from living the active lifestyle that they wish to lead. Health concerns treated by Naturopathic medicine include weight management concerns, natural approaches to injury treatment and prevention, cold and flu’s and promoting optimal immune health, decreasing inflammation, digestive health, allergies, asthma, depression and anxiety, headaches, arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, female and male health concerns.
Treatments may include clinical nutrition including diet planning, and nutritional supplementation; herbal medicines including encapsulated forms, tea’s and liquid tinctures; traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture; homeopathy; physical therapeutics, including rehabilitation; and perhaps most important is lifestyle counseling: addressing the lifestyle components to health that may prevent us from achieving optimal health and performance.

I want to take this opportunity to acknowledge and thank you and your staff for their dedication and professionalism. Six months ago I started experiencing chronic pain in my left knee and calf. After numerous tests my family doctor was not sure as to what was causing this ongoing problem. Through a friend, I was referred to you. The sports medicine Doctor diagnosed my problem as a torn meniscus with some degeneration of the cartlilage in my knee. The MRI that the Doctor arranged, in turn supported this. He suggested that physiotherapy would help before we entertained anything more invasive. My physiotherapist worked with me for several months and today I am pain free. Once again I say "Thank You". I believe my progress and its success is due entirely to the staff at Toronto SEMI.
