My Journey to Health

Inflammatory Bowel disease

At the age of 10, I learned I had ulcerative colitis. At that time, inflammatory bowel disease was not as common as it is today. So, like a “guinea pig”, I was the subject of several health studies. All the doctors and specialists said I’d have this disease all my life and would need to take medication.

I suffered from ulcerative colitis for 23 years, during which time I took high doses of medication. But the negative side effects made me question the methods. If medication was actually treating my disease and stabilizing my condition, why did I always relapse and become ill again.

Relapse and a Healthy Change

In 2008, physically and emotionally exhausted – and struggling with a constant back pain, I underwent a CT scan of the lumbar spine. A subsequent exam revealed that I had several abnormally size inflamed lymph nodes in my abdomen. After a series of tests, it was confirmed that I was suffering from another relapse.

That’s when my real journey to health began.

I chose to combine naturopathy with traditional medicine. After my health improved and stabilized, and I changed my lifestyle and eating habits, I decided to pursue a diploma in naturopathy at Collège de Naturopathie Christian Limoges and the Life Transformation Program at Hippocrates Health Institute in Florida.

Today, I’m dedicated to using the principles of naturopathy to help people with inflammatory bowel disorders and other health issues. By carefully listening to them, I’m able to empower people to make better choices according to their own situation and goals.

An Active Life with Naturopathy

The amazing changes I’ve made have also helped me lose weight and, for the first time, stabilize my weight. I banished fad diets that never provided long-term results. Today, my diet includes flavorful food and I have the energy to live life to the fullest.

Based on my personal journey, I’ve retained this teaching: it is not necessary to suffer or wait to be sick to make positive changes to your diet and lifestyle. The body has the ability to heal itself, but it’s also important to work to prevent disease. It’s never too early or too late to feel better, and to make better choices for yourself.

My pledge as a naturopath is to educate people who seek my advice – acting as their guide to prevent illness and promote optimal health.

Dominique Loyer, Naturopath – Education and Training

I obtained my naturopathy diploma from Collège de Naturopathie Christian Limoges (Montreal) in December 2013. In August of the same year, I followed the Life Transformation Program of the Hippocrates Health Institute (West Palm Beach) in Florida.

In April 2014, I obtained a certificate in Colon Hydrotherapy at the Claude Hamel Institute in Montreal.

I’m always working to improve my knowledge and skills so I can offer the best advice to my clients. In 2018, I completed a multidisciplinary bachelor’s degree from Université de Sherbrooke, which includes a certificate in Toxicology, a certificate in Mental Health from the Université de Montréal, and a certificate in Group Animation from the Université du Québec in Outaouais.

Specialized in Digestive and Intestinal Health

I specialize in digestive and intestinal health, which includes inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, celiac disease, irritable bowel syndrome and gut bowel syndrome (or leaky gut).

My Values

Respect

I base my advice on your particular lifestyle to suggest healthy changes tailored to you. I start exactly where you are to gradually bring you to sustainable wellness.

Welcoming

I welcome your willingness to make positive changes to your lifestyle and eating habits to improve your health. During your journey, I’ll be your guide to help you gain control of your health.

Empathy

I understand the reality of people living with a chronic condition. I know first-hand how challenging it is to move forward. But you can still make positive changes to your health, despite the illness.

Integrity

I’ll give you the right information at the right time, regardless of what naturopathic approach you choose. I also value small changes that have a positive impact – because these changes can be transformational.
