Tuesdays, 6 Weeks, In Person, In Studio

“What if we cared for a new mother, like we care for her precious baby... How would that change her journey home to herself?”

Gather with other moms (and babies) to talk about the challenges, joys, and worries of motherhood.

Coming together is one of the best ways of understanding the transition into motherhood - by receiving support, providing support, taking care of yourself and your needs, and reconnecting with others, yourself, and those around you.

Topics include sleep, identity shifts, relationship changes, reconnecting or reframing your needs, body image, and recognizing important emotional processes, such as shame, guilt, fear, and anxiety.

Come and meet with other moms and learn and share in the wisdom of Dr. Pamela Thornton, B.Sc., ND, to share your experiences and grow from connecting with others.

*May be eligible for coverage through health benefits under naturopathic medicine.

Our Instructor

Dr. Pamela Thornton, B.Sc., ND.
Naturopathic Doctor

Pamela earned her Bachelor of Science from the University of Guelph in human biology. She then graduated from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine's four-year Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine program in 1998. Pamela has served on the boards of both the Ontario and Canadian Associations of Naturopathic Doctors.

She completed her Therapeutic Prescribing exam in 2016 to add the controlled act of prescribing to her clinical tool box.  She followed this by becoming a Graduate of the University of Florida College of Pharmacy Essential Elements of Prescription Hormone Compounding.  The addition of bio-identical hormones has vastly expanded Pamela’s ability to untangle the complex endocrine web that so many women find themselves entangle in.

Pamela is an integrative practitioner and passionate leader in the field of women’s hormonal health issues and fertility.  She does many public lectures on topics of integrative medicine and alternative approaches to health. With over 21-years of clinical experience, Pamela believes that what it takes to be well is not merely the absence of disease but rather a balance of physical, emotional and spiritual health.  As a result, she has also continued her wellness journey becoming a HeartMath certified practitioner and a Hoffman Process International graduate.

As a mother of three children, Pamela is keenly interested in the health and wellness of women and children and our planet and in building community resources to make education and collaboration available to everyone who seeks it.

Pamela is known for her keen listening skills and her ability to see the whole picture when creating a wellness plan.  Born and raised in Woodstock, she is delighted to be joining Tiffany and Ashley in bringing the WOMB to our community.
