Dr. Sarah Connors ND is a Naturopathic Doctor with a focus on helping women and their families to live their healthiest lives, which she refers to as Generational Family Health. Dr. Sarah is of blended ancestry, European and Mohawk descent, which influences her method of practice. This approach of Two-Eyed Seeing (understanding the world from a Western and Indigenous view), allows her to blend the positive aspects of western medical and Indigenous healing sciences. Naturopathic Medicine is about treating the underlying roots of a health problem. In improving the health of women before and during pregnancy we can start to affect the next generations’ health in positive ways. Pairing this with the natural approaches of Naturopathic Medicine, she helps people start and raise their families naturally utilizing: nutrition, botanical medicines, acupuncture, and other natural remedies.
