Dr. Andrea Doubilet, ND

Andrea has a passion for inspiring others to live their lives fully and optimally. Having overcome health challenges of her own, she has a deep understanding of what it means to heal and is empowered to use this wisdom to help facilitate the healing of others. Using a holistic medical approach that is both evidence-informed and patient-centered, Andrea works together with her patients to cultivate realistic and sustainable lifestyle changes to help support the body’s innate ability to heal. Her approach is genuine and honest and emphasizes the connection of our minds, bodies, and hearts as playing a key part to the root cause of dis ’ease’. After graduating from the University of Western Ontario in 2010 with a degree in kinesiology, Andrea travelled extensively through parts of the middle east and central America where she resonated with the healing practices of various cultures. These discoveries ignited a passion to pursue further education at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) to become a naturopathic doctor as it combines the wisdom of traditional healing modalities with the scientific foundation of western medicine. During her time at CCCN she completed a 1 year internship at the Robert Schad Naturopathic Clinic and was inspired to work with Naturopaths Without Borders, an NGO where she provided naturopathic health care to low-resource communities in both Haiti and Mexico. Andrea has a keen interest in working with patients who are struggling to cope with anxiety, depression, fatigue, women’s health issues, hormone imbalances, and digestive concerns. In assessing these conditions as a naturopath, she views the body as one integrated system and recognizes the connections between the hormonal, digestive, and mental/emotional processes. Andrea uses acupuncture (based on Traditional Chinese Medicine), homeopathy, botanical medicine, nutrition & nutraceuticals, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, lifestyle counselling, and Bowen therapy to restore balance amongst these systems. Returning to her hometown of Sudbury, Andrea is thrilled to be of service to those who desire personalized health care and are ready to take the next steps towards positive changes. Her goal is to empower her patients to realize their own healing potential and to support them with the tools needed to live a more balanced and healthy life.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a very effective approach in treating a variety of acute and chronic neuromuscular and joint disorders. Its effectiveness is obtained by inserting a very thin needle into the skin and underlying soft tissue at specific points.

Acupuncture has been identified and accepted as an effective treatment of a wide range of health problems including:

Neurogenic musculoskeletal disorders
Headaches and Migraines
Neck, Back and Sciatic pain
Frozen shoulder, tennis & golfers elbow, carpal tunnel, tendinitis & bursitis.

What acupuncture does?

Acupuncture releases natural pain killers (endorphins) and natural anti-inflammatories (cortisol) causing local and general physiological responses.

Acupuncture assists in providing your body with an optimal environment for tissues to heal quickly and naturally by stimulating the repair process at the site along with providing long lasting effects of pain reduction and reduced inflammation.   At Livemax, we implement acupuncture as a pain management method and as an approach to restore proper functional movement while maximizing the body’s natural ability to heal itself. The effects of acupuncture can be further enhanced by adding an electrical stimulation to the acupuncture needles similar to T.E.N.S. and I.F.C. units.
