About Alanna Kuhn
My journey to becoming a Naturopathic Doctor began many years ago before I knew the profession existed. Like many doctors-to-be, I knew that I wanted to help people feel better. I spent many hours volunteering at organizations such as AIDS Niagara & Big Brothers & Sisters of Niagara, and was a research assistant, all the while obtaining my four-year Honours degree in Community Health Sciences at Brock University.
During my third year of university I spent one month volunteering at an all-girls orphanage in Cusco, Peru. It was here that I realized my goal of helping people to feel better just wasn’t enough. I wanted to be a part of my patient’s healing journey. I wanted to provide them options and most of all I wanted to help them heal themselves.
I completed a four-year, full-time doctor of naturopathic medicine program at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. During my clinical training I spent 8 months at the Sherbourne Health Center in downtown Toronto whose primary focus was to provide treatment and support for those affected by HIV. After graduation I became a member of the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors and Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors and am registered with the College of Naturopaths of Ontario. Since then I have done further training in Bioenergetics and Biotherapeutic Drainage as well as received certification in Usui Reiki.
My Naturopathic practice focuses on the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, cellular, and environmental spheres of health to heal. It is my job to make the connections between your health concerns in order to find the solutions, address root cause, and help you feel empowered on your health journey.
