About Lori Janzen
Dr. Lori Mae Janzen B.Sc., ND is a registered Naturopathic Doctor and member of both the Manitoba Naturopathic Association (MNA) as well as Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors (CAND). After graduating from University of Winnipeg with a Bachelor of Science degree (Biology / Biochemistry), Dr. Janzen went on to complete the 4 year naturopathic medical program at CCNM (Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine) in Toronto.
While growing up in rural southern Manitoba, and as she pursued her post-secondary studies, Dr. Janzen’s interest in health and the body’s ability to heal through natural means continued to grow. She always had a passion for plants & nutrition, and dreamed of ways to incorporate these interests with medical expertise. Discovering naturopathic medicine connected these areas of health and healing, botanicals, nutrition, traditional wisdom and forefront medical knowledge. Spending some time volunteering in standard health care settings, including a volunteer clinic in rural Haiti, further solidified her dream of bringing a more preventative, comprehensive and holistic approach of healing to others around her.
In 2009, Dr. Janzen completed Dr. Walter Crinnion’s Environmental Medicine training course. This area of medicine focuses on the impact of environmental toxins or pollutants (including everyday exposures) on our health and the short and long term impacts. Dr. Janzen works to minimize exposures and support natural detoxification processes to increase the excretion of these toxic “body burdens” that can accumulate over time. Immune, hormonal and neurological systems (in addition to others) are often most notably impacted when dealing with chemical body burdens and sensitivities. In addition to this area, Dr. Janzen works with a variety of health conditions including a special interest in: gastrointestinal and digestive concerns, adrenal, hormonal and immune balancing. In 2008, Dr. Janzen started her practice in the Wolseley area and joined the Nature Doctors team in the fall of 2015. Away from the office, she’s an active mom and enjoys a variety of athletics, outdoor activities (including time by the water), music, and especially being with her family.
