I’m Natalie McCulloch, I love what I do! I do it so I can help others truly feel their best and live their lives to the fullest. My twin sis, Dr. Nicole Sandilands ND and I opened Durham Natural Health Centre over 10 years ago. We always knew we wanted to create a space for healing and transformation for our community. Having grown up in Pickering, it has been a dream to create a centre for our community that supports health and wellness. I have a strong passion for women’s health and all things hormones. I have witnessed time and time again the struggles that women experience when their hormones are out of balance. Women who are in their 40s and 50s at the top of their careers, have busy family lives and their bodies start to change. They can’t sleep, struggle with hot flashes and night sweats, moods are all over the place and are left with what feels like few answers and very little support. I am on a mission to make that different for women. I want women to feel supported and empowered as they move though hormonal transitions. My passion for hormones began when I was struggling to create my own family, I truly know what if feels like to be longing for a solution to your health challenges with what feels like little answers and very little support. I am now the proud mama to 2 beautiful little girls who have truly become my why. I want something different for the next generation of women.

I want them to celebrate their femininity, hormones and body and not curse their period every month. I believe it starts by supporting their mamas who can show them how to move through these stages of their lives with grace and ease. I started my studies at McMaster University where I completed a 4 year undergraduate degree in Kinesiology. I then went on to study at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. I am currently completing a fellowship in menopause therapy with the confident clinician club. I am a member of the North American Menopause society (NAMS) and actively working to become a NAMS certified practitioner.

I love learning and continuing my studies so I can offer the best care possible for my patients. In my spare time, you can find me running after my 2 kiddos, listening to a podcast, working out, traveling, spending time with my partner Aaron, trying my hand at gardening (I’m just learning…but very optimistic) or enjoying a lovely dinner out. I look forward to helping you reach your health goals!
