Dr. Serena Markham, Naturopathic Doctor

Dr. Serena Markham has had a family practice in Maple Ridge since graduation and is excited to now be joining the Strawberries and Sunshine Healing Center. She has a special interest in working with children and families. Between her Bachelors degree at UBC and her doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine at the Boucher Institute she was a behavior interventionist and daycare support for children with Autism/ASD. It was so meaningful to help make positive change in the children’s lives. During her professional degree at Boucher Dr. Serena did an internship in Nicaragua with NDI, a program offering free medical care to families in need. Dr. Serena believes in finding the deeper cause of disease rather than treating only symptoms. She acknowledges all aspects of a person including physical, emotional and spiritual health. In her practice she has experience treating people with allergies, digestive problems, stress, anxiety and many kinds of pain including headaches, fibromyalgia, autoimmune conditions and injuries. In addition to the courses taken in the Naturopathic medicine program like botanical medicine, homeopathy and acupuncture, Dr. Serena has done additional training in Advanced Obstetrics, IV therapy, The Bowen Method and Craniosacral Therapy. Both Bowen and Craniosacral are grounding and rebalancing for the nervous system and effective at treating pain and stress. In your visit with Dr. Serena your health goals are the focus of therapy. She is there to help you get to where you want to go.
