Naturopaths that deal with Pediatrics in Edmonton

Naturopathic solutions at our Edmonton office 


Children of all ages are welcome at our Edmonton Naturopath clinic.


Our Naturopaths can deal with a range of pediatric concerns.


We also run a lot of food sensitivity testing in our pediatric patients.


We also work with various evidence-based herbal and nutritional strategies.


Our Practitioners

Dr. Deol has a special interest in Pediatric medicine & Fertility.


She is versed in PANDAS, Autism and ADD/ADHD, as well as digestive issues, immune system issues, tic disorders and skin conditions. 


Dr. Sumar also deals with Pediatric concerns such as digestive issues, rashes and headaches.


Her electrodermal testing technique is a favorite for kids and parents because it's non-invasive.


Dr. Muradov does a limited amount of Pediatrics at part of his Naturopathic practice.


Focusing on digestive and skin concerns as well as food sensitivities. 

Conditions seen

Autism

Naturopathic Medicine has much to offer Autistic children.


Our gut analysis methods (Stool Cultures and "OAT" Organic Acid Testing) can give our Naturopaths insight into microbiome imbalances.


Common suspects in our gut analyses include Candida Yeast and Clostridia bacteria. 


Many investigators have observed that food sensitivity is a contributor in many cases of autism.


Gluten and casein (a principal protein in cow's milk) are by far the most common food sensitivities.


Furthermore, Peptides from the wheat gluten and casein have been found to have opioid activity which can adversely affect the behavior of Autistic children.


So our Naturopaths usually run a finger-prick food sensitivity test for our Autistic patients. 


Addressing deficiencies can sometimes produce marked improvements in speech and behavior in some autistic patients. 


Dr. Deol often works with subcutaneous injections for her Autistic patients.


ADHD

Many investigators have found that food allergy is a common contributor in ADHD.


Our Naturopaths have also confirmed that observation in our own Pediatric patients.

Common symptom-evoking foods are sugar, coloring (especially red), food additives, and flavors, dairy, corn, chocolate, egg, wheat, potato, soy, citrus and pork.


There are numerous deficiencies our Naturopathic Doctors make sure are accounted for in our Edmonton ADHD patients.


Eczema

In our experience, pediatric eczema almost always has a food allergy or food sensitivity component and this is mirrored through the work of various investigators.


Multiple clinical trials showing substantial benefit in pediatric eczema patients exist.


When cost feasible our Naturopaths usually suggest Food sensitivity testing for our Pediatric eczema cases - this is somewhat convenient for children as well as their parents as only a fingerprick sample is needed.

If many foods are found elevated on testing we'll also do "gut healing" protocols to improve intestinal barrier function so that less food antigens can cross the intestinal wall.


We find UNDA 270 cream to be a reasonable alternative to steroid creams for some cases of childhood eczema. 


Dr. Sumar is of particular importance in some Pediatric eczema cases.


Her electrodermal assessment is valuable for quantifying histamine, oxalates and deficiencies that can be associated with both.


Digestive Issues

In our experience, pediatric digestive issues (bloating, tummy aches) frequently have a food allergy or food sensitivity component.


As with numerous childhood concerns, Food Sensitivity Testing can be extremely helpful.


Various probiotic preparations are also utilized for Pediatric digestive issues.


Occasionally our Naturopathic Doctors will identify hypochlohydria (low stomach acid) in our young Edmontonians.  


Once again, Dr. Sumar's electrodermal testing is extremely helpful for measuring digestive function, stomach acid and histamine related to children's digestion in an efficient, non-invasive fashion.

Natural Medicine & Pediatrics

There is a wealth of evidence supporting natural therapies for many common Pediatric conditions. 


Our Naturopaths use Diet, Herbs and Homeopathics to gently address children's concerns. 


Eczema, digestive concerns, asthma and allergies are commonly seen and treated in our Edmonton Clinic.


Although less common, we also deal with other Pediatric issues such as bed-wetting, ear aches, headaches, frequent colds and behavioral issues.

Natural Medicine & Pediatrics in Edmonton

Looking for Naturopaths in Edmonton who treat kids? Our clinic blends natural medicine with a down-to-earth, family-friendly approach—because sometimes the missing piece in your child’s health isn’t another prescription…it’s better digestion, fewer allergens, and the right gentle support.

We use diet changes, kids-safe herbs, homeopathics, and food sensitivity testing to help with common childhood issues like eczema, digestive troubles, asthma, allergies, frequent colds, and the occasional mysterious rash that “just showed up one morning.”

All ages welcome—tiny humans, big humans, and everything in between.

Pediatric Naturopaths in Edmonton

Our Edmonton Naturopathic Doctors see a wide range of pediatric concerns. We use kid-friendly tools, gentle testing methods, and evidence-backed natural strategies. Parents love it. Kids tolerate it. Everyone wins.

We especially see a lot of:
• Eczema
• Digestive issues
• Allergies
• Headaches
• Behavioral concerns
• Recurrent colds
• And the classic: “my kid’s tummy hurts again”

Food sensitivity testing is one of our biggest tools for kids—and yes, it’s just a simple finger-prick, not a wrestling match with a needle.

Meet Our Naturopaths

Dr. Deol – Special interest in Pediatrics, Fertility, PANDAS, Autism, ADHD, digestive issues, tics, and immune challenges. She also works with subcutaneous injections for Autism support.
Dr. Sumar – The favorite of kids with eczema, rashes, and stomach issues. Her non-invasive electrodermal testing earns her hero status among needle-avoiders.
Dr. Muradov – Does a smaller amount of Pediatrics, focusing on digestion, skin issues, and food sensitivities.

Conditions Treated

Autism

Our Edmonton naturopaths use stool testing, OAT testing, and food sensitivity testing to uncover gut imbalances like Candida or Clostridia. Gluten and dairy sensitivities are common culprits. Addressing nutrient deficiencies can sometimes spark impressive improvements in speech and behavior.

ADHD

Food sensitivities and artificial additives often play a big role. We commonly see sugar, dyes (especially red), dairy, and wheat as triggers. We also investigate nutrient deficiencies—because low zinc or magnesium can sabotage focus faster than a TikTok notification.

Eczema

Pediatric eczema usually has a food component. Food sensitivity testing helps identify triggers, and gut-healing protocols reduce flares. We often use UNDA 270 cream as a gentle alternative to steroid creams. Dr. Sumar’s electrodermal testing helps pinpoint histamine issues and other irritants.

Digestive Problems

Bloating, tummy aches, gas, and nausea often trace back to food sensitivity or low stomach acid—even in kids. We use probiotics, food testing, and non-invasive electrodermal assessments to figure out what’s really going on.

At TruMed, we’re passionate about helping Edmontonians achieve optimal health through evidence-based naturopathic care.

 

At TruMed, we believe that a child’s health is the foundation for their entire future. Pediatric care in the modern world is complex; we are seeing a significant rise in chronic concerns like ADHD, Autism (ASD), eczema, and anxiety.

Our Edmonton clinic provides a dedicated space where "normal" isn't good enough—we strive for optimal. By combining traditional pediatric wisdom with advanced metabolic therapies, we help children in Alberta thrive, focus, and feel comfortable in their own skin.

Naturopathic Doctors for Pediatrics in Edmonton

A Naturopathic Doctor (ND) at TruMed looks at a child’s health through a functional lens. Instead of just managing symptoms, we investigate the "why." Why is the skin reacting? Why is the nervous system overstimulated? Why is the gut causing distress?

In our Edmonton practice, we commonly address:

  • Digestive Concerns: Addressing "leaky gut," food sensitivities, and microbiome imbalances.

  • Eczema & Allergies: Finding the internal inflammatory triggers rather than relying solely on steroid creams.

  • ADHD & Anxiety: Balancing neurotransmitters and identifying nutrient deficiencies that impact focus and mood.

  • Sleep Issues: Investigating the link between gut health, iron levels, and melatonin production.

Pediatric IV Therapy in Edmonton

While the idea of an IV might seem daunting for a child, IV Therapy at TruMed is administered in a calm, supportive environment by practitioners experienced in pediatric care. We use IV therapy for children who have severe malabsorption, significant nutrient depletions, or neurodevelopmental challenges where oral supplements aren't moving the needle.

By delivering nutrients directly into the bloodstream, we ensure the brain and immune system get exactly what they need to function—without the struggle of picky eating or digestive upset.

IV NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)

Mitochondrial dysfunction—a fancy term for "cellular energy failure"—is a common finding in children with neurodevelopmental delays and chronic fatigue.

  • The Science: Research has consistently shown that children on the autism spectrum often exhibit higher rates of mitochondrial "stress."

  • The Benefit: IV NAD+ helps bypass these metabolic roadblocks to provide the brain with the fuel required for speech development, social engagement, and cognitive processing.

NAD+ Injections for Kids

For many of our younger Edmonton patients, a quick NAD+ injection is a more feasible option than a long IV drip. These injections provide a concentrated boost of this essential coenzyme to support brain health and cellular repair, helping children with ADHD or "brain fog" maintain better mental stamina throughout the school day.

IV Glutathione: The Detoxification Support

Children are more vulnerable to environmental toxins than adults. IV Glutathione provides the body’s "master antioxidant" to help clear the path for healing.

  • The Science: A landmark study by S. Jill James et al. (2004) in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that children with autism have significantly lower levels of active glutathione compared to neurotypical children.

  • The Benefit: At TruMed, we use IV Glutathione to help neutralize oxidative stress and support the body's natural detoxification pathways, which can lead to improvements in behavior, sensory processing, and skin clarity.

Glutathione Injections

Glutathione injections are a frequent choice for parents in Edmonton looking to support their child’s immune system and toxic load. This is a quick, effective way to ensure the "antioxidant shield" remains strong, particularly for children dealing with chronic eczema or environmental sensitivities.

Iron Infusions & Injections for ADHD & Sleep

Did you know that iron is a co-factor for the production of dopamine? Low iron (even if not "anemic") is a major, often-overlooked contributor to pediatric issues.

  • The Science: A study published in Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine found that children with ADHD had significantly lower ferritin (iron stores) levels than their peers. Restoring these levels often results in better focus and a reduction in "restless" sleep or growing pains.

  • The Approach: Our Edmonton clinic provides Iron Infusions or Injections for children when oral iron is too slow or causes stomach upset, ensuring their brains have the oxygen and dopamine support they need to rest and focus.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) for Autism & ADHD

HBOT involves sitting in a pressurized chamber breathing pure oxygen. For pediatric patients, this is often a relaxing time where they can watch a movie while their brain gets a "super-charge" of oxygen.

  • The Science: A famous multicenter, randomized, double-blind controlled trial by Rossignol et al. (2009) published in BMC Pediatrics showed that children with autism who received HBOT (at 1.3 ATA) had significant improvements in overall functioning, receptive language, social interaction, and eye contact.

  • The TruMed Protocol: We use Hyperbaric Oxygen to reduce neuroinflammation—effectively "cooling down" an overactive or inflamed brain—allowing for better communication between different brain regions.

Compassionate Care at TruMed Edmonton

Whether it's managing eczema, supporting ADHD, or exploring HBOT for Autism, we provide the most advanced natural therapies available in Alberta.
