Meet Dr. Marnie Loomis

Common Concerns We Support

Fatigue and low energy

We look for drivers like iron/B12 deficiency, thyroid and cortisol patterns, sleep quality, blood-sugar swings, meds, and infections. Care may include nutrient repletion, circadian routines, gentle conditioning, stress support, and targeted labs to guide next steps.

Digestive issues (bloating, IBS, reflux)

Root-cause work can include elimination trials, fiber and hydration targets, stomach acid or enzyme support, soothing botanicals, microbiome balance (including SIBO screening when indicated), and nervous-system tools to calm the gut–brain axis.

Stress, sleep, and mood support

We pair sleep hygiene and nervous-system practices with evidence-informed nutrients or botanicals (e.g., magnesium, L-theanine, gentle adaptogens when appropriate) and check for contributors like thyroid imbalance, low ferritin, or glucose variability.

Metabolic health and weight concerns

Screening for insulin resistance, thyroid and hormone balance, and medications informs a practical plan: protein & fiber goals, meal timing, resistance training, and supportive nutrients. We focus on sustainable habits over quick fixes.

Women's health & hormones

Cycle mapping and symptom patterns guide individualized care for PMS/PMDD, PCOS, perimenopause, and postpartum recovery. Options may include lifestyle strategies, targeted botanicals or nutrients, and discussion of bioidentical hormones when appropriate.

Skin and inflammation

We explore triggers (gut imbalance, foods, stress, environmental exposures) and support barrier health from inside and out—anti-inflammatory nutrition, omega-3s and minerals as needed, gentle topicals, and gut-liver support.

Immune support & seasonal wellness

Foundations first: sleep, hydration, movement, stress care, and vitamin D status. When helpful, we add time-tested botanicals and nutrients to support resilience and recovery, tailored to your history and medications.

General prevention & longevity habits

Baseline labs, nutrition that fits your life, strength and mobility goals, brain and bone health, and connection/joy practices. Simple, measurable steps with periodic follow-ups to keep momentum.

What to Expect

Thoughtful intake. We review history, medications/supplements, nutrition, sleep, stress, and movement—your whole picture.

Collaborative goals. Together we set realistic priorities and timelines that match your capacity and lifestyle.

Clear plan. Nutrition guidance, evidence-informed botanicals or nutrients, and simple routines you can sustain.

Ongoing support. We track progress, refine your plan, and coordinate with your medical team as needed.

Naturopathic care works alongside primary or specialty medical care. For urgent or emergency concerns, please seek immediate medical attention.
