The Courageous Cure
Dr. Alana Berg, ND is originally from Alberta. She discovered at a very young age her desire to help people. This led her to a path of pre-medical training at the University of Alberta, and ultimately to the profession of Naturopathic Medicine, graduating from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2005.
She began a full-time practice in 2006 in Kelowna BC, and embarked on developing and honing her professional skills. She has been achieved certification by the College of Naturopathic Physicians of British Columbia in: chelation, acupuncture, IV therapy, pharmacology, and ozone. As well, she has trained in neural therapy, trigger point injections, Bodytalk therapy, Neuropsychokinesiology, and several other courses along the way.
Dr. Alana and I discuss the key differences between "traditional" western medicine and natural medicine and how these two fields can actually harmonize for maximum well being. We also talk about her great book The Courageous Cure: Understanding Why You Get Sick and Revealing How You Can Heal; what motivated her to write it, and why you will greatly benefit from buying and reading it.
