Heart disease is prevalent in Canada, with 2017-2018 data from the Canadian Chronic Disease Surveillance System showing that about 1 in 12 Canadian adults over the age of 20, an equivalent of 2.6 million people, live with a heart disease diagnosis. Separate studies from the Heart and Stroke Foundation have found that 9 in 10 Canadians have at least one risk factor for heart conditions, stroke, or vascular cognitive impairment, conditions that kill 13% more people than all cancers combined.

While heart disease can be managed with traditional medicine, conventional medications such as statins, ACE inhibitors, and beta blockers focus only on treating the symptoms and often come with side effects. For this reason, practitioners at Healthflow Naturopathic believe that an integrated approach is necessary to proactively manage risk factors and maintain good cardiovascular health; this can be done through treatments that target root causes and promote the body’s natural regenerative mechanisms, both of which are the primary focus of naturopathy.

Healthflow Naturopathic’s physicians can help with cholesterol management, hypertension, weight and visceral fat management, systemic inflammation, blood sugar control, and stress management, all of which are risk factors for heart disease. Treatments may include nutritional support, herbal medicines, lifestyle counselling, or acupuncture; patients will also be advised on lifestyle modifications, including the appropriate exercise routines, meal plans, sleep hygiene, and stress-reduction techniques.

Healthflow Naturopathic notes that their naturopathic treatments are meant to complement, rather than replace, pharmaceutical treatments that have already been prescribed for the patient. As a result, they will collaborate with the individual’s other healthcare providers to develop a treatment plan that will best address their health goals.

“At Healthflow Naturopathic, we believe that true wellness comes from treating the whole person—not just the symptoms,” says a spokesperson for the clinic. “Our team focuses on personalized care that blends traditional wisdom with modern medicine.”
