Seasonal affective disorder, or SAD, is low mood, low energy and extra sleep that come in the fall and winter. It often lifts in spring.
At Inside Health Clinic in Oakville, we use the Deep Healing Method to find out why your mood drops in the dark months. We do not guess. We look for the root cause, so we can treat the real problem and not only the symptom.
Less sunlight can lower vitamin D and change your body clock and the chemicals that lift mood. Low thyroid, low iron, low B vitamins, blood sugar swings and poor sleep can add to it. Your gut health matters too.
The reason is different for each person. We do not promise a cure. We test to find what may be adding to your winter low and support your body.
Our Deep Healing Method looks for the root cause, then fixes it in three steps.
First, we test and check. We do not guess.
We look at vitamin D, thyroid, iron, B vitamins, blood sugar and sleep.
Tests we may use: blood work and hormone testing.
Next, we take away what is in the way.
This may mean fixing food triggers, calming swelling and resetting your sleep and light habits.
Then we put back what is low, and we learn why it was low.
We replace what is low, such as vitamin D, and check how long you need support so the change lasts.
For a limited time, you can start with our In-Clinic Deep Healing Assessment for $129.

SAD is stronger than the winter blues. It can affect sleep, energy and your daily life. We test to see what may be adding to it.
Low vitamin D can add to it. We check your levels and replace what is low.
