Stress is a part of life and can, at times, be a normal reaction to a demanding situation. When it becomes too intense, lasts too long, or doesn’t give the body time to recover, it can affect sleep, digestion, muscle pain, concentration, emotions, and even quality of life.
At La Clinique Naturelle, we offer personalized care through a variety of complementary therapies. Depending on your situation, one or more approaches may be considered, always in conjunction with conventional medicine when necessary.
Our Approach at Clinique Naturelle
Every situation is different. Two people facing a similar situation may experience it very differently and may not have the same needs.
That is why we always prioritize personalized care. Depending on your situation, one or more complementary therapies may be recommended, and, when appropriate, several therapists may work together to provide you with a comprehensive care plan, always in conjunction with conventional medicine.
Complementary therapies that may be part of your treatment plan:
1. Promote a better overall balance
These approaches aim to address physical factors, lifestyle, and the body’s ability to adapt in order to restore a better physical and emotional balance.
2. Develop strategies to better manage stress
These support services can help you better understand the mechanisms of stress and develop practical tools for coping with it on a daily basis.
3. Alleviate the physical symptoms of stress
When stress manifests as muscle tension, pain, or a feeling of tightness, certain approaches can help improve physical comfort and promote relaxation.

Are the sessions covered by supplemental insurance?
Sessions may be partially reimbursed by certain supplemental insurance plans. However, coverage depends on your policy, the type of therapy you receive, and the therapist you choose.
Before your first appointment, we recommend that you contact your insurance provider directly and provide them with the following information:
- the therapist's name;
- the therapy in question.
The therapists at La Clinique Naturelle hold professional certifications that vary depending on their specialty, including accreditation from theASCA and/or the RME. However, these accreditations do not automatically guarantee reimbursement for sessions: only your insurance provider can confirm the exact terms of your coverage.
