Naturopathic Medicine

Dr. Chris Brown has been proudly serving the communities of Northwestern Ontario as a Naturopathic Doctor since 2019. A longtime resident of the region, he grew up in Thunder Bay and completed his undergraduate degree in Kinesiology at Lakehead University. He then pursued his naturopathic studies in Toronto, becoming a registered Naturopathic Doctor in 2018. Shortly after, he moved to Kenora to join his wife, Amie, and family.

With a deep passion for naturopathic medicine, Dr. Brown is committed to providing high-quality, patient-centered care. He takes pride in offering personalized treatment plans that empower his patients to achieve their health goals. Over the years, he’s found Kenora to be a vibrant and welcoming place to call home.

In 2023, Dr. Brown and his wife welcomed twin daughters, Elliott and Olive, into their lives. As a family, they love exploring the outdoors, tending to their garden, and indulging in their shared love of cheesecake. These simple joys have made their life in Northwestern Ontario even more special.

The Power of Light Therapy

Non-invasive, clinically proven treatments that work at the cellular level

Photobiomodulation therapy (PBM), also known as low-level light therapy, uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate healing, reduce inflammation, and restore function to damaged tissues. The LightStim Pro Panels deliver multi-wavelength LED light that penetrates the skin to activate natural processes—without any discomfort or downtime.

Unlike basic LED devices, LightStim Pro Panels are FDA-cleared, high-output tools used in clinical settings for acne, skin rejuvenation, and pain relief. These professional panels are designed to treat broader surface areas efficiently while delivering therapeutic-grade results.

 

How It Works

Activating mitochondrial energy and reducing inflammation through light

When light from the panels is absorbed by your skin, it reaches the mitochondria in your cells—the engines that produce cellular energy (ATP). This process stimulates a cascade of effects, including:

  • Increased ATP production to power healing and regeneration

  • Reduced oxidative stress and inflammation

  • Enhanced circulation and lymphatic drainage

  • Boosted collagen and elastin synthesis

  • Improved skin immunity and barrier function

The result: more energy for your cells to function, repair, and regenerate—leading to better skin, faster recovery, and noticeable symptom relief.
