What to expect during a Naturopathic appointment?

​

During your virtual or in-person visit, Dr. Jaqueline Brockert will gather information about your overall health history, including a list of medications and/or supplements, acute or chronic symptoms, allergies, past surgeries and hospitalizations, nutritional status, and stress levels. Following a thorough review of your health information—incorporating laboratory and imaging examinations when necessary—Dr. Brockert will design a personalized plan to address the underlying causes of your health concerns.

​

Dr. Brockert will begin your treatment with the least invasive yet most effective methods available. When appropriate, she will focus initially on lifestyle and nutritional recommendations rather than pharmaceuticals. However, each individual is unique, and for some patients, the use of pharmaceuticals may be necessary. Regardless, Dr. Brockert will implement an integrative treatment plan that emphasizes less invasive methods for long-term goals.​

​

At Peach Skin Portland Healthcare, all patients will receive special attention to their nutritional health and digestive system. What you eat and how you absorb nutrients from food can significantly influence overall inflammation and exacerbate mental health conditions. During your appointment, Dr. Brockert may suggest dietary and lifestyle changes. If needed, she will recommend laboratory tests to investigate your symptoms, which may include but are not limited to food and environmental allergy and sensitivity testing, etc... Additionally, Dr. Brockert will strive to eliminate potential sources of inflammation, as these are major contributors to pathological conditions.

 

​After a careful review of your symptoms and laboratory studies, nutritional supplementation may be recommended if necessary. However, Dr. Brockert prioritizes addressing nutrition and lifestyle factors first. She believes that overall health, including mental health symptoms, may reflect the inflammation and contamination present in your body. If your body is accumulating toxins—such as pesticides, preservatives, flavoring agents, petrochemical products, heavy metals, and sugar—and is unable to detoxify these environmental insults due to poor digestion or hormonal imbalances, you may experience symptoms that indicate the accumulation of these issues or deficiencies.

The right treatment can facilitate the healing of both the body and mind. While it may take time to address some chronic conditions and we may not have a cure for all disorders, the appropriate treatment can help alleviate and reduce the frequency of symptoms for most individuals.

​

The right treatment will help the whole body and mind heal itself. For some chronic conditions it may take a while, and we may not have the cure for all disorders; however, for most people, the right treatment may help to alleviate and to decrease the frequency of symptoms and flares, even for incurable chronic conditions. Additionally, when referrals are needed Dr. Brockert will make sure to refer you to the right specialist.​
