Dr. Kamala-Devi Sivasankaran, ND

As a Naturopathic Doctor (ND), it’s a privilege to support patients in finding balance, gaining vitality, and experiencing overall well-being. I am deeply committed to creating a healing environment that embodies safety, compassion, respect, and empowerment for my patients.

Core Principles

• Safe Space: I foster an environment free from judgment, where you can openly share your health concerns, fears, and goals.
• Compassion: Your health journey is unique, and it’s important to me to show up with empathy and understanding of your experiences, in order to tailor treatments to your individual needs. Research shows that empathy from healthcare providers is associated with lower anxiety, reduced pain, increased patient satisfaction, improved treatment adherence, and even better overall health outcomes.
• Respect: Throughout my practice, I strive to respect patient insights, values and cultural backgrounds. Shared traditions such as food and eating together not only foster connection, they shape our health beliefs and practices as well.
• Empowerment: Knowledge is empowering. By providing knowledge, guidance, and personalized strategies, I help individuals become active participants in their well-being journey.

With a background in biology and health sciences, I value the integration of both traditional and western conventional approaches to medicine, and recommend naturopathic treatments that can work alongside any conventional treatments you may be taking. As part of your comprehensive health assessment, I may recommend specific functional diagnostic tests to identify root causes and rule out other possible concerns. Treatment plans and preventative recommendations may include modalities such as acupuncture, botanical medicine, specific nutrition guidelines, natural supplements, lifestyle adjustments, hydrotherapy, counseling and more.
