Women's Health & Performance Medicine, Naturally

My Mission

Is to champion naturopathic healthcare innovation for high-performing individuals. I empower athletes and the public with actionable insights for peak performance and well-being. I cultivate trust in my community through personalized care and impactful education for health care professionals and the public.

I'm Dr. Briana Botsford

A naturopathic doctor, Ironman triathlete, and proud owner of Flow Functional Health Care in Edmonton, Alberta. My personal journey in sport and wellness inspired my special interest in the intersection of sports medicine and women's health. Through my practice, I focus on empowering athletes and active individuals through personalized nutrition, lifestyle changes, and targeted supplementation.

My education started at Queen’s University where I studied Physical and Health Education and Life Sciences. Later, I went to the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine to become a Naturopathic Doctor with a focus on sports medicine. I have written for the Canadian Journal of Naturopathic Medicine and spoken at McMaster University, the Alberta Association of Naturopathic Doctors, and the Lois Hole Hospital for Women. I share my knowledge through podcasts on topics like nutrition's impact on menstrual health, energy deficiency in sport, and peak performance during perimenopause. I also teach at the Confident Clinician Club, helping integrative practitioners.
