#79 Why is Ginger So Obsessed With The Lymphatic System. Dr. Nash graduated from The National College of Naturopathic Medicine in 1998 and in her 20 years of clinical practice has worked with thousands of women on natural hormonal balance without the use of hormone-replacement. Complex homeopathy, herbal medicine and nutrigenomics are the therapeutic cornerstones of her practice.
Dr. Nash taught at the University of Bridgeport's College of Naturopathic Medicine clinic for six years and has taught seminars for other healthcare professionals throughout the U.S. and Canada for over a dozen years. She is a sought-after speaker and has recently launched an online movement for women called “feminology: the art and science of female hormones, within the context of our culture” with her colleague Dr. Tara Nayak. These doctors interweave the scientific knowledge behind natural medicine and the art of helping women heal.
