Our Clinic

Natura Health & Wellness Clinic was founded in Missoula in 2019 with a vision that was simple but rare: bring together a team of exceptional naturopathic physicians under one roof, so that patients could access truly comprehensive, collaborative, and affordable care — all in one place.

We believe that when people feel well, families are stronger, and communities thrive. That conviction shapes everything we do.

Healthy Patients, Healthy Communities

We're not here to treat your symptoms and send you on your way. We're here to understand why they're happening in the first place — and to work alongside you to address them at the source.

That means three things guide every appointment at Natura:

  • Collaboration. We partner with you — listening to your full story and combining traditional healing wisdom with modern diagnostics to find what's actually driving your symptoms.

  • Education. We believe an informed patient is an empowered one. We take the time to explain what we're seeing, why it matters, and what your options are.

  • Community. We're committed to a future where naturopathic medicine is recognized not as an alternative, but as an essential part of excellent healthcare — right here in Montana and beyond.

What We're Here to Do

Natura is conveniently located at 1805 Bancroft Street in Missoula, with ample parking and easy access from across the valley and beyond. Our space was thoughtfully designed with both your health and the health of the planet in mind — from eco-friendly materials throughout to a fully fragrance-free environment that honors our chemically sensitive patients.

Inside, you'll find a welcoming waiting room, private exam rooms, a fully-stocked medicinary, and a comfortable, state-of-the-art IV suite. Collectively, it is a calm, healing space that feels nothing like a typical medical office.

A Healing Space, Curated for You

Inspired by Nature

At Natura, we are inspired by two animals whose attributes and habitats define how we practice naturopathic medicine. As you come into our clinic, you may see reminders of these animals and our desire to learn from them as we serve our amazing patient population.

Bison

Bison are unique in the way they react to an approaching storm. When the snow starts to fall and the winds start to blow, they gather as a herd, put their heads down, and they walk into the storm together. They do not retreat or stand still and wait it out. They know deep in their souls the quickest way through the storm is to walk into it, meet it head on, and go towards the clear skies on the other side.

At Natura, like the bison, we have faced the elements head on, be that COVID-19, simply being the alternative option to the norm, or weathering the daily and yearly challenges to make this clinic what it is today. We have walked straight into the storm, knowing we will reach the other side, the winds will calm, the snow will stop and when the storm has passed, we will stand strong as a collection of beings doing good work together - for our patients and our community.

As with a herd of bison, some of us will walk out front and create the path forward, and some of us will form the circle that protects the herd, being aware of who is beside us, who is ahead of us, and who is behind us, making certain we all get to the other side together.

Manatee

Manatees are unique and gentle creatures. Although they can be large animals, they are particularly vulnerable due to a lack of fat (blubber) to protect them. They require very specific habitats, which are primarily found in the warmer waters near Florida. They require specific foods, including seaweed and other green plants. Their food supply is often low, making it difficult for them to sustain themselves.

We see our patients like manatees: requiring individualized, gentle care. Many of our patients are vulnerable, made so through sometimes challenging life experiences. We care about our patients the same way we care about our manatees, and are dedicated to helping them.

When we care for our patients, we don't just think about their health concerns. We think and care about all of them: their family, children, work, school, hobbies, home environment, and more. We strive to get to know our patients and all these things about them. We know that all of these things add up to shape the unique individuals we are privileged to see in front of us.

Even though we are far from the Florida home of manatees, we care for our patients all the same.

At Natura, we think of ourselves as the bison, and we care for our patients like we do manatees. Put together, we are driven to make a profound difference in this world, being a strong, but gentle, force for good on an individual, family, and community level.
