Supporting Kids and Teens with Natural Health Tools

Children and teens are not just “little adults” — they have unique health needs, growing bodies, and developing minds. At the Heishman Healing Foundation, we believe that supporting youth with natural health tools sets them up for a lifetime of vitality and confidence in their bodies.

🌿 Why It Matters

Today’s kids and teens are navigating a complex world — from ultra-processed foods and screen time to stress, anxiety, and a fast-paced culture. Add in confusing health advice and rushed doctor visits, and it’s no wonder many feel disconnected from their bodies.

But the earlier we teach them how their body works — and how to take care of it naturally — the better.

✨ Our Approach to Pediatric and Teen Wellness

Naturopathic care focuses on the whole child — not just symptoms or quick fixes.

We help with:

• Digestive health & food sensitivities

• Sleep issues, focus, and mood

• Skin conditions (like eczema or acne)

• Hormonal shifts during puberty

• Immune support (without over-reliance on medications)

• Helping them understand their bodies so they can advocate for themselves

Our visits are educational, empowering, and often fun. Kids and teens walk away not just with a plan — but with a better relationship to their health.

🧠 Building Body Literacy Early

We believe in teaching children and teens the “why” behind their care. When they understand how food affects their mood, or why sleep and hydration matter, they’re more likely to take ownership of their health.

Plus, we offer tools like:

• Herbal remedies

• Nutritional guidance

• Mindfulness and breathing techniques

• Safe, age-appropriate healing practices

Healthy kids become empowered teens — and empowered teens grow into strong, vital adults.

Let’s give our youth the natural tools they need to thrive now and in the future.
