We all want to have a longer and happier life, to achieve this we don't need to wait for a miracle. The only thing we should do is taking care of our physical and mental health to understand its secret. For having a healthy life during elderly, it is strongly recommended to have a healthy lifestyle during young ages. 

​

I believe elderly is not a disease or disability, its part of life which not everyone has a chance to see it. For knowing the importance of the Senior Health we should compare it with the Pediatric Medicine.

​

Naturopathic Doctors evaluate and screen senior patients in terms of all possible background diseases and help them to happily regain their activities and prevent them to be isolated. 

 

Naturopathic Medicine has three approaches for Senior Health:

​

• Prevention

• Treatment of common health conditions

• Rehabilitation

​

Some of the common health conditions in seniors which should be addressed carefully are:​

​

• Diabetes

• Hearing Loss

• Dehydration

• Polypharmacy 

• Thyroid Dysfunction

• Urinary Dysfunction

• Hypercholesterolemia

• Memory Loss like Alzheimer

• Sleep Disorders like Insomnia

• Mental Health like Low Mood and Anxiety

• Cardiovascular Diseases like Hypertension

• Gastrointestinal Disorders like Malabsorption 

• Musculoskeletal Disorders like Osteoporosis and Arthritis

​

As a Naturopathic Doctor I understand the importance of making good rapport with elderly and make them to feel comfortable and free. With knowing this, I am passionate to help those who have a chance to be a senior and improve their quality of life!
