My name is Marillea Yu. I am a Naturopathic Doctor.
I help tired, aching, brain-foggy women get back to feeling focused, energetic and motivated. I do this by finding and managing the root cause of their symptoms, investigating possible causes of Environmental Illness and initiating early management.
My expertise lies in a thorough investigation of the intricate interplay between your health, unique genetics and environmental/chemical exposure. Using a thorough health intake, relevant physical examination and specialized testing I then create a treatment plan and health blueprint based on your health objectives.
I have a special interest in Environmental Medicine, as the increased negative impact of environmental pollution and toxicant exposure has become more apparent over time. Over time there have also been increases in the rates of diseases such as cancer, autoimmunity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, etc. and in other health conditions such as infertility and hormonal disorders.
I use the principles of Naturopathic Medicine and Environmental Medicine to better investigate and treat complex chronic health conditions. I have a special interest in autoimmune conditions, mold illness, hormonal and metabolic health.
As a Naturopathic Doctor, Wellness Expert and Educator, I strive to educate and inspire, in order to empower. With knowledge, understanding and empowerment, there can be effective action and movement in the direction of true health and wellness.
