Profile: Dr. Christine Slonetsky
Christine Slonetsky's journey to become a Naturopathic Doctor began in her early 30's. She was working as a social worker at the time which she enjoyed immensely, yet she wanted to expand her work with people to include the whole person; mind, body and spirit.
She began practicing as a Naturopathic Doctor after graduating from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2001. She also received a BA with a major in religious studies from the University of Waterloo, and a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Toronto.
Dr. Slonetsky's goal as a Naturopathic doctor is to support people in their efforts to reach optimal health. She believes in the ability of the body to heal itself, given the proper support. She offers individualized treatment plans for people of all ages and with all conditions. She has had great success helping people with arthritis, fatigue, digestive issues, allergies, PMS, menopausal symptoms, fertility, pregnancy, skin conditions, diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol, thyroid dysfunction, hyperactivity, ear and sinus infections, and the common cold or flu. She offers a range of natural therapies including Nutritional and Weight Management Counselling, Herbal Medicine, Homeopathy, Acupuncture, Emotional & Lifestyle Counselling, Stop Smoking Protocols and Physical Therapy.
When Dr. Slonetsky is not at the clinic she is busy with friends and family. She loves being in the outdoors, and participates in a range of activities including running, cycling, hiking, cross country skiing, skating and swimming. She is also involved in community events revolving around vegetarianism. She has two cats at home who bring a lot of joy into her life. Spirituality and meditation are also important parts of her life.
