About Me
Dr. Cecilia de Martino was born in Montreal and was fortunate to have lived in the Philippines and Germany. While in Germany she became fluent in German and her frequent visits to family in Italy allowed her to master the Italian language as well. Once back in Canada, she completed her high school diploma in Cambridge and then obtained her Bachelor of Science in Technology in Pharmaceutical Chemistry from the University of Guelph. After having worked in the lab of pharmaceutical companies she realized this wasn’t the path for her. She knew she wanted to be in health care and after seeing how naturopathic medicine helped her mother when no other doctor could, she was intrigued. She fell in love with the naturopathic philosophy of treating the mind and the body and so finished the 4 year full-time program at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) in Toronto which included a year internship at the Robert Schad Naturopathic Clinic and a term at LAMP Community Health Centre in Etobicoke. Dr. de Martino also preceptored with numerous leading Naturopathic Physicians who have acted as mentors and teachers.
Currently, Dr. de Martino is a licensed Naturopathic Doctor with the College of Naturopaths of Ontario and a member of the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors (OAND) and the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors (CAND).
Her interests include, but are not limited to:
women’s health,
hormone balancing,
nutrition and digestion optimization,
weight management,
immune system strengthening,
sleep restoration and
detoxification.
Some of the tools that Dr. Cecilia uses in her practice are counselling, herbs, vitamins, nutrition, bio-identical hormones, energy work, homeopathy and acupuncture.
Dr. de Martino believes that the mind has a paramount role when it comes to health: if we heal the mind, we heal the body. Everyone is at different stages in their lives and Dr. de Martino is here to meet you at yours. By means of a thorough intake and physical exam, the root cause of disease can be established. With your commitment, your journey to health can begin so that you can do the things you love.
