Health Conditions and Practice Emphasis
Dr. Simms’ practice is focused on total wellness. Symptoms of disease are the body’s way of alerting you that something is wrong, and asking why is the body creating symptoms and determining the root cause of disease is the aim of naturopathic medicine. In essence, the symptoms we feel and sometimes suffer from are messengers from our body that, when addressed directly, can lead us to the root cause of a condition and to its treatment.
