I attended the University of Western Ontario and graduated in 2007 with Honors Bachelor of Science Specialization in Biology. I have always found science interesting particularly the application to health and wellness. In 2009, I started the intensive 4-year naturopathic medical program at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM). Three years were focused on learning clinical sciences and naturopathic modalities including botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, homeopathic medicine, physical medicine, lifestyle modifications and more. The last year of the program is focused on clinic training, which I completed at the Robert Schad Naturopathic Clinic, Anishawabe Health Centre and a volunteer externship in Guatemala with Naturopaths for Global Health. I graduated from CCNM in May 2013, with a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine graduate. Then I completed my NPLEX II exam and board exams in 2014 and registered as a Naturopathic Doctor in April 2014. In addition to my naturopathic training, I have taken a wide variety of courses to support healing deeper emotional and spiritual aspects of health. I have learned a variety of techniques to help guide you on your healing including Shamanism, Reiki, dream analysis, meditation, BioEnergetics, mindfulness and more. In 2014, I opened Trillium Health Clinic where I offer Naturopathic medicine and wellness. I offer individualized treatment plans that are specific to your needs and health conditions, for all ages. These treatment plans support the body's innate healing ability by using a variety of naturopathic treatment options including dietary and lifestyle modifications, supplement recommendations, and acupuncture. All treatment plans are created with the intention of helping you succeed and optimizing your health as quickly as possible. I work as a team with my patients and actively discuss treatment plans to ensure that any lifestyle modifications are manageable and suggest resources to help with integration. Ultimately, I cannot help my patients heal unless they are ready and willing to make changes in their life and are committed to improving their health. My goal is to educate, empower and support my patients on their healing journey of mind, body and spirit. I look forward to working with you. In Health, Dr. Michelle Myszko, ND
