Naturopathic Services Now HST Free!

With the passing of the federal budget on February 11, 2014, the Government of Canada has exempted Naturopathic care from GST/HST. This means that as of February 12th 2014, GST/HST is no longer charged to patients on appointment fees.

To book an appointment, or for more information on how Naturopathic Medicine can help you, please call 613-290-6115. We are conveniently located in downtown Ottawa at 102 Lewis Street (3 blocks south of Elgin St and Somerset St W).

Free parking is available at the clinic and on surrounding streets.

Physical Activity for Cardiovascular Health

Description:
Physical inactivity is an important risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease (i.e. heart attack or stroke). Given that the average Canadian is sedentary for approximately 70% of the waking day, many Canadians are at risk of having a heart attack or stroke. Being physically active can help to regulate blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and obesity, all of which impact heart health.

Please join us to learn more about how physical activity can benefit cardiovascular health.

Topics of this seminar will include:
-Types of physical activity and their cardiovascular benefits.
-How physical activity benefits blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar.
-What steps you can take to reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease by being more physically active.
