About
Integrative Interactive Health (I2Health) is a Lifestyle and Integrative Medicine Family Practice that endeavours to encourage, empower and educate patients for optimal health. Central to our practice are the six pillars of Lifestyle Medicine: diet, exercise, stress management, proper sleep, addictions management and interpersonal relationships. We use these pillars in the treatment of chronic diseases like hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, metabolic syndrome, and many others, as well as counseling our patients on the proper use of medications. Our aim is to educate our patients so that they understand how their chronic illness works, and empower them to take charge of their health.

Naturopathic Visit F.A.Q
What is Naturopathic Medicine?
- Naturopathic Medicine uses different therapies, or modalities, to treat the whole person. We have various "tools in our toolbox" to address different concerns such as: homeopathy, nutritional counseling, botanical medicine, hydrotherapy and much more. So if you need alternative options for treatment, Naturopathic medicine can provide that.
- People that have a history of chronic conditions may need some additional support. Naturopathic treatments are great for adjunctive care to help improve or slow the progression of certain disease processes.
- Oftentimes, a number of symptoms are interconnected and they point to an imbalance or deficiency in an organ system. Naturopaths seek to address those large, root issues to your concerns.
- If you would like to find out more, you can book a free Meet and Greet appointment with Dr. Coleman
