You deserve individualized care that is catered to you! I’m Dr. Michael Michna, a licensed Naturopathic Doctor, research geek and health advocate. My approach to health is simple: it’s all about you. My mission is not only to help you achieve optimal health, but to empower and advocate for you in the process.
Hi, I’m Dr. Michael Michna, ND (Dr. Mike).
The story of how I became a Naturopathic Doctor is deeply rooted in my own health journey and the experiences of those around me.
As a child, I struggled with persistent health issues—mainly chronic fatigue and hormonal health issues. I was passed from doctor to doctor without a clear diagnosis or real answers. It wasn’t until I met a naturopathic doctor who truly listened that everything began to shift. That experience empowered me to take charge of my health and showed me that true healing starts from the inside out.
Because I’ve lived through that uncertainty and frustration, I understand how discouraging it can be when you don’t feel heard. That’s why, in my practice, I create space for every patient to ask questions, to be curious, and to take an active role in their wellness journey.
I work with you to uncover the root causes of your health concerns—connecting the dots between your symptoms and history. There are no one-size-fits-all solutions here. We’ll craft a personalized, evidence-informed plan that supports your unique needs and goals.

Weight is influenced by much more than calories and willpower. We consider factors such as nutrition, activity, sleep, stress, medications, hormones, metabolic health and your personal history. We may assess body composition, waist circumference and relevant laboratory markers, then develop an individualized plan focused on sustainable nutrition, movement, muscle health and metabolic function.

Insulin resistance occurs when the body's cells become less responsive to insulin, making it harder to regulate blood sugar effectively. It can be associated with weight gain, cravings, fatigue and increased metabolic risk. We may assess glucose and insulin-related markers, along with your health history and body composition, and address contributing factors through nutrition, resistance training, physical activity, sleep and lifestyle changes.

Prediabetes means blood sugar levels are higher than the healthy range but not yet in the range used to diagnose diabetes. It can be an important opportunity to take action and improve metabolic health. We may review markers such as fasting glucose and HbA1c, along with your family history, weight, blood pressure and lifestyle factors, then create a personalized plan to support healthier blood sugar regulation.

Metabolic syndrome describes a combination of metabolic risk factors that can occur together, including increased abdominal circumference, elevated blood pressure, higher blood sugar, elevated triglycerides and lower HDL cholesterol. Having several of these factors can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. We assess your individual metabolic profile through health history, physical measurements and appropriate laboratory testing, then develop a personalized strategy targeting the factors that can be improved through nutrition, physical activity, body composition, sleep and lifestyle changes.

Weight carried around the abdomen can be more than a cosmetic concern. Increased visceral fat—the fat stored around internal organs—is associated with insulin resistance and other metabolic risk factors. We may assess waist circumference, body composition, blood sugar, cholesterol and triglycerides, along with nutrition, activity, sleep and lifestyle factors. Your personalized plan may focus on nutrition, strength training, metabolic fitness, sleep and sustainable lifestyle changes to support healthier body composition.

Stable blood sugar supports consistent energy, appetite regulation and overall metabolic health. We may assess your symptoms, eating patterns and laboratory markers such as fasting glucose and HbA1c, with additional testing when clinically appropriate. Your plan may focus on balanced meals, protein and fibre intake, physical activity, muscle development, sleep and other lifestyle factors that
