My path

Hello and welcome!

I’m Natalie Rubio, ND. a devoted naturopathic doctor with over 17 years in the beauty and skincare industry. My passion lies in empowering individuals with knowledge and guiding them to embrace their calling towards health, so they can radiate positive energy into the world and create meaningful change. My transition to naturopathic medicine was sparked by my deep interest in the beauty industry and the desire to help people feel their best. Having grappled with my own skin challenges and digestion issues, I comprehend the frustration of navigating through countless products, and modifying nutrition without seeing desired results. Through these experiences, it became clear that my training and understanding of the body and how to obtain radiant skin was lacking. This realization prompted my return to school to gain the knowledge necessary for addressing the root causes of skin ailments and provide comprehensive solutions to people suffering with similar issues. However, during my time in naturopathic medical school, I discovered the profound potential of naturopathic medicine. While my initial love was treating skin, I found an even greater passion in treating people as a whole.

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Human Biology and completed my naturopathic medical training at Bastyr University, a distinguished four-year CNME accredited naturopathic medical school. This unique blend of disciplines deepened my understanding of the intricate workings of the human body. During my time at Bastyr, I had the privilege of conducting research on the effects of essential oils on fungus that grows on the skin. This experience further solidified my belief in the healing power of nature and her ability to support our innate ability to heal. While here I also made a crucial discovery – that my brain fog, digestion issues, lack of energy, joint pain, and skin issues were not seemingly disparate symptoms or part of aging but intimately connected. All stemming back to the gut. This realization fueled my commitment to helping people who suffer from similar issues. I’m here to listen to your truth because I understand the frustration of not being heard or having your story fully understood.

My role is to partner with you on your path to wellness. I’m committed to understanding your individual health story and goals, working together to explore natural therapies and lifestyle adjustments that can enhance your quality of life. If you have questions or would like to schedule a free 15-minute consultation, please feel free to reach out. Together, we can embark on a journey centered on empowering you to make choices that align with your health and well-being.

Warmly,

Natalie Rubio ND.

Interests & Hobbies

Beyond my professional endeavors, I’m a firm believer in the importance of balance and self-care. Here are some things that light up my life outside of helping people:

Quality time with Hawthorn: I cherish every moment spent training, playing and cuddling my lovable French Bulldog, Hawthorn. Our adventures together add a special kind of joy to my days.
Movement enthusiast: I am deeply grateful to my body for allowing me to move and embrace the challenges of various physical activities. Whether it’s practicing yoga for mindfulness, lifting weights to build strength, or dancing to express myself, these activities keep me connected to the amazing capabilities of the human body.
Culinary and wellness adventures: Alongside my fiancée, I enjoy the challenge of bouldering and the art of creating culinary (sometimes) masterpieces. We love exploring new recipes together, making these shared experiences a delightful part of our journey.
Herbal remedies: Crafting herbal remedy products is both a passion and way to explore the natural world’s healing potential. I love sharing these creations with friends and family.
