Virtual Visits Available! | Did you know that we offer phone and video appointments for both new and returning patients? There are numerous benefits of going virtual, as outlined below. Many patients also opt for a hybrid of virtual and in-person care, depending on their needs for each visit. Comfort, Convenience, and Savings - You can attend appointments from the comfort of your own home, eliminating the time and cost of travelling, finding parking, or sitting in a waiting room.
- Virtual visits are easier to fit into busy schedules, making it possible to see your doctor without taking time off work or arranging for childcare.
Increased Access to Care - Telehealth makes it easier for people in rural or remote areas, or those with mobility challenges, to access healthcare providers and specialists who may not be available locally. At the IHC, we see patients from all across British Columbia.
Reduced Risk of Infection - By avoiding physical visits to clinics, patients lower their risk of exposure to contagious diseases such as the flu. This is particularly helpful for people who are already immunocompromised, such as when undergoing chemotherapy.
Better Continuity and Quality of Care - Telehealth enables more frequent follow-ups and monitoring, which can improve the management of chronic conditions and lead to better health outcomes
Family and Support Involvement - Virtual appointments make it easier for family members or caregivers to join the visit from any location. At the IHC, we can facilitate for multiple parties to be present on a video or phone visit.

Hyperhidrosis is a disorder in which the sweat glands become overactive. The result is excessive perspiration that is not associated with exercise, temperature or any other typical triggers. Parts of the body that are commonly affected include the palms of the hands, armpits, soles of the feet, chest, the head and face. For the majority of people, hyperhidrosis does not pose a serious health threat. However, it can be uncomfortable and embarrassing, and it can interfere with quality of life. Nerve impulses associated with sweating can be muted with the use of Botox. Botox injections have come to be widely used in managing hyperhidrosis when topical treatments have failed. The treatment works by blocking the nerve signals that instruct the sweat glands to become active. It takes three to four days for the results of Botox injections for hyperhidrosis to become evident. Depending on each person, as well as the area being treated, the results can last for up to six months. According to the International Hyperhidrosis Society, people who receive Botox injections have found excessive sweating decreases by more than 85%. Botox injections are well tolerated with few side effects, most commonly bruising at the site of injection. Botox is widely used for many types of hyperhidrosis, and it has been FDA approved for excessive underarm sweating. Some extended benefit plans may cover Botox for hyperhidrosis. If you are interested in Botox for excessive underarm sweating, please contact our care coordinators for more information. 604-888-8325 admin@integratedhealthclinic.com Dr. Karen McGee, ND | Intravenous Therapy – Glutathione | Glutathione is one of the most abundant antioxidants in the body, playing a crucial role in reducing oxidative stress, regulating the immune system, and enhancing detoxification. Oxidative stress is linked to various inflammatory conditions, including cardiovascular disease, liver disorders, autoimmune conditions, infertility, and neurodegenerative diseases. Furthermore, low levels of glutathione are often observed as the body ages. Unfortunately, glutathione is poorly absorbed when taken as an oral supplement. However, there are certain foods, such as cruciferous vegetables, green tea, and salmon, that may help support glutathione levels. In the IV suite, we can administer glutathione intravenously, making it readily available for use by the body. Talk to your Naturopathic Doctor at IHC to see if IV glutathione may be good addition for you. Dr. Sarah Denotter, ND References - PMID: 31484368, 28490897, 37683986 | Understanding How Your Genes Impact Medication Response | If you’ve experienced limited benefit or significant side effects from mental health medications—such as antidepressants, stimulants, or mood stabilizers—pharmacogenomic testing may offer valuable insight. This DNA-based test analyzes how your body processes medications, helping identify which treatments are more likely to be effective and better tolerated. Pharmacogenomics can be especially helpful if you’ve trialed multiple medications without consistent results. It can support more informed, individualized prescribing, reducing the need for ongoing trial-and-error. We now offer this testing as part of our broader approach to personalized care. If you're interested in exploring whether this could be right for you, feel free to reach out or ask at your next appointment. DNA-LoveMyHealth-Pro + MatchMyMeds Bundle = $400 Dr. Jess Hobson, ND | From the Cancer Care Center | IHC Hosts International Oncologists! | On May 27, IHC had the privilege of hosting over 30 visiting oncology specialists from around the world. The group included radiation, urological, gynecological, and other oncology professionals from countries such as Germany, Switzerland, Brazil, and Korea. During their visit, we had the opportunity to share our integrative approach to cancer care and introduce them to the unique therapies we offer. As part of the tour, guests were shown our IV therapy lounge, locoregional hyperthermia suite, and whole-body hyperthermia treatment space. We also provided a comprehensive overview of IHC’s history, our clinical model, and the evidence-informed philosophy that guides our work with oncology patients. This visit was a wonderful opportunity to connect with healthcare professionals who are either currently working with similar integrative therapies or are exploring them for the first time. Meaningful conversations were had, insightful questions were asked, and we were honoured to share knowledge, exchange ideas, and contribute to the growing global dialogue on integrative cancer care.
