At Back to Balance we believe that anytime of the year is an excellent time to set goals, resolutions, and to check in with the changes you need to make in your life. Yet, with 2026 right around the corner there is no time like the present to build a foundation for a happier, healthier you.

As the clock ticks down to midnight, we often find ourselves reflecting on the year past; the highs, the lows, and the habits we wish to carry forward (or leave behind). What better way to start the new year than with a fresh foundation? At Back to Balance, our six-week Detox & Cleanse program is designed to help you reset your body, nourish your mind, and gain momentum toward your healthiest self in 2026.

Many of us believe our bodies are already engineered to “detox”  and while that is true, modern lifestyles expose our bodies to many more stressors than we are biologically designed to tolerate. Organs like the liver, kidneys, lungs, GI tract, and skin work constantly to eliminate byproducts and environmental exposures, yet, processed foods, environmental pollutants, stress, and hormone-disrupting chemicals can tax these systems in subtle, cumulative ways. Our bodies can become overrun with inflammation and similar to a snowball rolling downhill this inflammation can build and gain momentum as it goes.

I had a patient, Leslie, visit for a functional medicine consultation and what we ultimately decided was that she would benefit from my Detox and Cleanse Program. Leslie was experiencing unwanted weightgain, headaches, hotflashes, brainfog, and just generally didn’t feel well. As a naturopathic doctor I knew we needed to clear the playing field of symptoms, so to speak, and the best way to do that was through my 6 week gentle cleanse. As Leslie went through the cleansing process she noticed a reduction in symptoms and by the end of the 6 weeks we had a much more manageable set of symptoms to work with. Even better, during the reintroduction phase of my cleanse, Leslie discovered she had a sensitivity to corn! Corn was causing all sorts of chronic inflammation in her body that Leslie thought was her “normal” state. Needless to say my Detox and Cleanse Program helped Leslie lead a happier, healthier, and symptom free life.

If you are experiencing symptoms that you can’t find a cause for, or that you feel are related to hormonal changes or imbalances, reach out to our office to set up a naturopathic consultation.
