Why Attend our Meetup?

One of the biggest frustrations I hear from practitioners who practice holistic medicine that you do is that you feel isolated from the rest of their medical community who don’t “get” the real value of what you offer. The purpose of our meetup group is to help to develop a community of practitioners in Ottawa who “get it”, to build a referral network, add value to your practice, your community, and the movement at large.

Who should attend the meetup?

This meetup is primarily for healthcare practitioners who have an interest in functional, holistic, integrative and naturopathic medicine including Chiropractors, Dentists, Dietitians, Health Coaches, Hypnotherapists, Medical Doctors, Naturopathic Doctors, Nutritionists, Osteopaths and Registered Massage Therapists.
