Clinic Holiday Party: the 2020 edition! While we could not be together in person, we shared some great laughs and had some meaningful conversation during our Zoom cocktail party! We thank all of you for your support in our small businesses and look forward to seeing you soon! ... Happy Holidays to all of you!

Hello everyone! In case you haven't met me yet, I am Dr. Lisa; Naturopathic Doctor, hiker, and lover of cappuccinos. I have been practicing in Hamilton since I graduated from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2011. In 2016, I opened Simply Healthy, Simply Strong , an integrative clinic filled with a diverse array of practitioners (including psychotherapists, osteopathic manual therapists, RMT/medical acupuncturist/athletic therapist, a health coac...h & sound therapy/meditation expert). I love encouraging others to take an active role in their health, and lead by example. I won't ask you to do anything I wouldn't have done myself. I have been studying Qi Gong very heavily over the last 8 months, and have begun to incorporate this practice into my patient visits. I am really excited to add this lifestyle technique to patient treatment plans. Drug - free healing at its finest! I love working in Hamilton, and observing the changes of the 4 seasons on the Niagara escarpment and the local waterfalls. A reminder that we cannot bloom all year long. I am a Jill of all trades and love kayaking, camping, cycling, and stand up paddle boarding. I recently started taking figure skating lessons. For some reason though, I don't skate like Tessa Virtue...yet (). I can't wait for restrictions to lift so I can get back to the rink! I look forward to meeting you or, if we already know one another, to seeing you again soon! Thanks for reading! Dr. Lisa

Many of my patients prefer to avoid taking pills of any kind (whether it's a prescription or supplement). For some, they have difficulty swallowing capsules and tablets. These preferences do not mean there aren't solutions for you. There are a number of treatment modalities we can incorporate, such a nutrition, herbs (in liquid and tea forms), acupuncture, body work (including Reiki), Qi gong, lifestyle habits and so forth. If the issue is difficulty swallowing..., there are a number of supplements that can be consumed in a liquid format. Each patient is an individual, and I work with them to create an effective treatment plan that fits both their needs and their preferences. You're in good hands, Dr. Lisa Simply Healthy, Simply Strong

Two friends having an adventure! Having a dog has been great in more ways than one. One of the best things has been a reason to take more regular walks. Most mornings, I enjoy an early walk with Cedar. It's a chance to get moving, breathe some fresh air, and set a grounded tone for the day. We go rain or shine. #walkingthedog #healingwalks #healthmadesimple #simplyhealthysimplystrong #drlisatnd #thehopeapproach #naturemedicine #hamont #dundasontario #waterdown #burlington

Hyaluronic is one of my favourite topical treatments for beautiful, healthy, glowing skin. Research studies show that hyaluronic acid can benefit skin concerns such a scars (including keloids and acne scars) as well as atopic dermatitis (eczema). It is also an amazing anti-ager; boosting elasticity and plums the skin. Adios fine lines! I work with local compounding pharmacies to make custom blends for patients' individual needs. Speak to me at your next appointment about yo...ur skin needs. #antiaging #beautiful #healthyskin #antiagingskincare #naturalbeauty #naturalskincare #glowingskin #hamont #naturemedicine #drlisatnd #simplyhealthysimplystrong #thehopeapproach

For those of you new to my account, hello and welcome! If you haven't had a chance to meet me yet, my name is Dr. Lisa Tabrizi. I am a naturopathic doctor in Hamilton, Ontario and have a general family practice and have been in practice since 2011. I am passionate about using simple & sustainable methods to achieve health. This philosophy eventually led to the development of my slogan "Simply Healthy, Simply Strong". I am dedicated to my patients and search for ways to educat...e and motivate them to support their body's ability to heal itself. In health care, our focus should be on creating a life that fosters long term health -increasing ones "healthspan". Many doctors instead focus on increasing "lifespans". I am interested in increasing the number of years a person has where they are strong, vital, and healthy; hence the term "healthspan" . When you come to see me for an appointment, you'll find we will readily build rapport because of my relatable and outgoing nature. My job is to answer your questions and put you at ease. I will ask you numerous questions about your symptoms, health, and lifestyle. I complete physical exams where necessary and can order blood work or refer to your GP where necessary. Treatment strategies are often a combination of nutrition, physical activity, breathing and mindfulness exercises, acupuncture, acupressure, supplements/vitamins and herbal teas and tinctures. Hippocrates said "It's far more important to know what person has the disease than what disease a person has" and I could not agree more! In my office, you'll discover that while both you and your friend may come in with "low energy" -your treatments will be individualized. Personalized medicine at its finest.

Friendly reminder to take a pause in nature! This past weekend, I was camping at Presquille Provincial Park with my family. It was lovely to paddle in Presquille Bay and enjoy the lily pads and waves. The water looks still here, but it was quite windy in the main open bay! A balance of yin and yang.

Recall alert! Check that your hand sanitizers are not on this list :

Thank you for to all the amazing moms out there! Your hard work, dedication, and unconditional love is so treasured!

Tasty, colourful and loaded with flavour: these are the kind of meals I enjoy. I bet you do too. Organic durum pasta salad with microgreens, sausage, and roasted veggies. Why the durum wheat pasta? It has a slightly different DNA structure, and many people find it easier to digest. It also has a slightly higher protein content. And it tastes amazing. Can't tolerate wheat? Substitute with quinoa or brown rice pasta.... Directions: Prepare about 500g pasta (durum wheat or whatever you have at home). While the pasta is cooking.... On a baking sheet, roast veggies at 350 degrees F, for a few mins. Place the veggies on a baking sheet (toss with olive oil, salt and pepper). If you feel lazy, skip the roasting and serve them raw...but roasting makes them easier to digest and enhances the flavour. Veggies I used (but you can modify to what you have in the fridge) -green pepper (chopped) -broccoli head (chopped) -heirloom tomato (chopped) -handful cherry tomatoes (cut in half) Once they are softened to your liking, remove and allow them to rest for a few mins. In a separate bowl, mix: -1 cup and half pesto sauce -1 cup cheddar cheese (can be omitted or switched to another cheese or non -dairy simulation) - handful of Kalamata olives (pitted) -couple Tbsps sun-dried tomatoes and the corresponding oil -1 small Italian sausage, cooked (or could substitute tofu or tempeh) -couple Tbsps pumpkin seeds -couple Tbsps dried cranberries -salt and pepper to taste Add the roasted veggies and pasta and toss. Drizzle additional olive oil, pinch of dried basil or a couple of fresh basil leaves (chopped). And garnish with microgreens. The colours and layered flavour =delicious. Even tastier as left overs. Enjoy! Tell me how you like it if you give it a try!
