What is a Natural Health Practitioner?

A Natural Health Practitioner is trained in natural and holistic approaches that support the body's healing processes. We focus on lifestyle, nutrition, stress, and targeted support, and we collaborate with your medical team as needed.

How is this approach different from conventional medicine?

Conventional care often centers on symptom management using medications or procedures. Our approach prioritizes identifying and addressing root contributors, using natural, non-invasive strategies to help restore balance. Both approaches can work together.

Are natural therapies safe?

Yes—when guided by a qualified professional and tailored to you. We use gentle, evidence-informed methods and consider medications, allergies, and health history to minimize side effects.

Can this help with long-term or complex conditions?

Often, yes—as complementary support. We take time to understand your story, uncover drivers of chronic issues, and build a personalized plan for sustainable progress, alongside your physician's care when appropriate.

What kinds of lab tests do you use?

We may review conventional labs (e.g., blood work) and, where appropriate, suggest specialized tests such as hormone panels, micronutrient assessments, food-sensitivity screens, or comprehensive stool analysis—always based on your needs and local regulations.

About Author

My name is Minaam Jamil, and I’m a natural health practitioner with a background in pharmacy, a heart rooted in holistic healing, and a journey shaped by many cultures. I was born in Pakistan, lived in the UK, Middle East, and now call Calgary home. Each place gifted me a different kind of wisdom scientific, spiritual, ancestral and together they’ve shaped how I care for others. I started The Natural Healing Haven because I know what it feels like to search for answers that conventional medicine can’t always provide. After years in pharmacy and becoming a mother, I felt called to explore gentler, more intuitive ways of healing ones that honor the body’s design, the soul’s needs, and the sacred connection between the two.
