How do Naturopaths treat Lyme Disease?
Antibiotics alone often worsen symptoms without providing long-term relief. That’s why we take a comprehensive, step-by-step approach that strengthens the body while targeting the infection.
Our treatment strategy focuses on:
Restoring key nutrients depleted by Lyme and co-infections
Strengthening the immune system
Healing the gut and reducing inflammation
Supporting mitochondria (your cellular energy powerhouses)
Addressing hormonal imbalances, including thyroid and bio-identical hormone support
Targeting active infections with herbs, IV therapy, and/or antibiotics
By addressing the root dysfunctions and supporting the body as a whole, we not only fight the infection but also rebuild resilience, energy, and long-term health
