Our naturopathic team at Med Royal AZ offers a unique approach to healing and wellness. Still, each doctor specializes in identifying the underlying cause of negative symptoms and treating that cause rather than masking it and only treating the symptoms - this method of care taps into the body's innate ability to heal itself and restore balance.
Med Royal AZ is proud to offer a range of naturopathic health care services, including IV therapy, hormone therapy, and personalized weight loss programs.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a revolution in regenerative medicine; additionally, with PRP therapy's profound results, our team extends PRP therapy for pain management, hair restoration, and skin rejuvenation as part of the naturopathic services.
With a commitment to helping patients feel their best from the inside out, Med Royal AZ also provides a full suite of aesthetic services. Patients can achieve a more youthful glow and boost their self-esteem with treatments ranging from Botox® and dermal fillers to laser facials and laser hair removal.
