Naturopathic Solutions & Treatments For:
Dr. Pat Nardini, ND has more than 20 years of experience offering naturopathic solutions & treatments for many of the health issues people face, with a special focus in the following areas:
Are you feeling tired all the time, and can’t understand why? Having trouble falling asleep, or waking up exhausted after a long night’s sleep? Is your digestive system acting up, or are you losing weight? If so, you may have a thyroid disorder.
Your thyroid is a small gland located in your neck, and when there’s an imbalance it can cause all sorts of problems. Dr. Pat has a special interest in thyroid health, so if you’re dealing with a thyroid disorder, he may be able to help.
Your immune system is your body’s first line of defense against all sorts of illnesses. Its job is to patrol your body, attacking and fighting off any diseases it finds. But sometimes, your body’s immune system turns on itself, attacking certain parts of your body.
This is called an autoimmune condition, and there are many different types. Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis are just a few examples. Dr. Pat has natural solutions which may help.
Sometimes, you expect to be tired – like when you just pulled an all-nighter or hit the gym particularly hard. But other times, you might feel tired with no immediately obvious reason. If so, you may be suffering from chronic fatigue.
And while there are many factors that may contribute to your chronic fatigue, naturopathic solutions are available. Dr. Pat will work to get to the bottom of what’s causing your chronic fatigue, and provide a naturopathic treatment plan for you.
Hormones are chemical messengers. The various glands and organs of your endocrine system are there to secrete hormones which regulate your metabolism, heart rate, sleep patterns, reproductive system, mood, stress, appetite, and more.
When these hormones are out of balance, they can cause a wide variety of different symptoms. However, Dr. Pat offers naturopathic solutions for hormonal imbalances which may help you manage your symptoms.

During this appointment, Dr. Pat will take a detailed history of your health, including any injuries or illnesses you’ve suffered in the past, your family history, current diet and lifestyle habits, and more.
He’ll also conduct a physical exam, and may suggest laboratory tests to get a more specific understanding of certain issues.
Once Dr. Pat has the full picture, he’ll be able to better provide you with a natural treatment plan designed to address these concerns.
If you’re not sure what to expect as a patient of naturopathic medicine, don’t worry. You’re not alone.

The first thing to note is that both are doctors. The process of becoming an ND is in many ways just as strenuous as that for an MD. In the approach however, medical doctors rely largely on drugs and surgery, and are more reactive. They help treat the symptoms of a disease that’s already present. Naturopathic doctors, meanwhile, use more natural, less invasive techniques, and focus more on proactive, preventative medicine.
Yes, absolutely. There is a growing body of scientific research that shows many naturopathic techniques to be effective treatment options in helping you deal with a wide variety of different health concerns. In fact, the line between naturopathic and medical studies isn’t always cut and dry, especially when it comes to nutrition. If you read some of Dr. Pat’s blog articles on this website, you may notice he has a habit of citing scientific studies.
Naturopathic doctors have a variety of different treatment modalities in their tool belt. Depending on your naturopathic doctor and your current state of health, you may experience treatments using botanical medicine, homeopathy, clinical nutrition, traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, lifestyle counseling, and more. Dr. Pat may use any one of the above, or a combination of them, when assembling a treatment plan to suit your needs.
Currently, no. Most extended health care benefit packages, though, offer a certain amount of coverage for a wide variety of different naturopathic services. Speak to your human resources manager or group benefits provider to find out more about the amount and extent of your benefits package.
Naturopathic medicine is a system of primary health care which has, at its core, the philosophy vis medicatrix, or the healing power of nature. It’s designed to diagnose, provide treatment for, and prevent disease by taking a whole-body approach. By addressing every aspect of your health, naturopathic medicine can help you achieve a state of more optimal health. A naturopath, or naturopathic doctor, is somebody who practices naturopathic medicine.
This is a difficult question to answer. It depends on how you view it. From a short term perspective, visits to your naturopathic doctor may be more expensive than visits to your medical doctor. However, the power of naturopathic medicine is in its proactive approach. When you work with a naturopathic doctor, you’re working toward not just treating your current symptoms, but preventing future health disorders from taking root.
