Naturopathic Medicine
Our naturopathic medicine practice combines modern scientific research with traditional healing methods to address root causes of illness. We offer personalized treatment plans using natural therapies that stimulate the body's self-healing mechanisms. Our approach focuses on long-term wellness through comprehensive care for both acute and chronic conditions.
Intravenous Therapy
IV therapy delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream for maximum absorption and immediate effects. This treatment accelerates recovery from illness, boosts energy levels, and supports overall wellness through customized nutrient formulations. Ideal for both acute symptom relief and long-term health optimization.
Ozone Therapy
Ozone therapy utilizes medical-grade ozone to stimulate healing through multiple biological mechanisms. This treatment enhances cellular energy production, regulates immune function, and reduces inflammation while improving oxygen delivery throughout the body. Effective for chronic conditions and immune system support.
Prolotherapy
Prolotherapy stimulates natural tissue repair through targeted injections that strengthen connective tissues. This treatment addresses joint pain and instability by promoting healing in ligaments and tendons. Effective for sports injuries, chronic pain, and musculoskeletal conditions without invasive procedures.
Extensive Testing
Our comprehensive diagnostic testing identifies underlying health issues through advanced laboratory analysis. We offer specialized tests for food sensitivities, hormone balance, heavy metal toxicity, and gut health to create precise treatment strategies. This data-driven approach ensures targeted, effective interventions.

The staff are quite lovely, especially Natalie in the IV suite. I went in for stage 3 colon cancer and I am unhappy with the care I received. I saw Dr. Colin twice, and by the end of the second appointment I still didn't feel like I had a plan of attack for my cancer care. I was also put on supplements that I didn't fully understand, one of which has nothing to do with cancer care and caused my skin to break out. When I consulted a different oncology naturopath, he had no idea why I was on it either and informed me it messed with my estrogen which was causing the emotional chaos and the skin issues

After having years of stomach/intestinal problems, Dr Tim has been incredibly helpful to figuring out what has been going on. Through numerous tests and treatments, I have been doing so much better. Highly recommend Dr Tim.

I've been seeing Dr.Patti for over a year now, and have NOTHING but positive things to say. I started with a basic consultation to discuss what my body needs from a vitamin and supplements point of view. We then began acupuncture to help with my severe carpal tunnel paint in my wrists. What I love about coming to see Dr.Patti is her approach towards a healthy lifestyle. Obviously with her being a naturopath, that's her focus already, but I love the fact she explains things in a way that I can understand. I also feel like a person with her, and not simply a patient. I drive about 45 minutes one

This is what a medicine man/woman’s office looks like, for an off reserve urban Indian, version 2019. 💯 In twenty years, Dr’s. Patti Yik and Colin Race are THE BEST in Calgary that I have been able to find, and are more than worth the drive and money. Book an appointment today, and tell them I sent you!

They are kind, friendly, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. I have always felt confident with their diagnosis and treatment plans, and they provide personalized care to each of their patients. So much better than being rushed through the normal walk-in clinic, where I get 10 minutes to discuss my one issue - they provide care for the whole person, taking my whole health into account to provide me with a treatment plan! Love them and recommend them to everyone!

The care and treatment I received from Vive Health were unprecedented. Dr. Colin and Dr. Patti used a collaborative approach to treat (and almost completely heal!) an ankle injury I had, as well as address a few other health concerns. They were compassionate, resourceful and attentive throughout the entire course of treatment and I couldn't have asked for better care. Both Doctors are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about their profession and I would highly recommend seeking their help for any health concerns.
