Optimal Wellness Programs
Stop Chasing Symptoms.
Start Building Better Health.
True wellness isn’t just the absence of pain — it’s feeling strong, balanced, and energized every day. At Kelowna Wellness Clinic, Dr. Brent Barlow, ND, takes an integrative, science-based approach to help your body function at its best. Through advanced testing, targeted therapies, and personalized treatment plans, we identify what’s holding you back and create a roadmap for optimal performance inside and out. Whether your goal is more energy, better sleep, balanced hormones, or long-term vitality, this is where real wellness begins — with clarity, strategy, and care designed specifically for you.
Why Wellness Slips
Even small imbalances can affect how you feel, think, and perform:
- Hormone changes related to stress, aging, or lifestyle
- Nutrient deficiencies and poor absorption
- Chronic inflammation or metabolic dysfunction
- Poor sleep and recovery habits
- Environmental or toxin overload
- Gut and microbiome imbalances

- Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) — Bio-identical options when appropriate, carefully prescribed and monitored by Dr. Barlow.
- Hormone Support — Natural strategies through nutrition, sleep, and stress management.

Understand and Balance Your Hormones.
Hormones shape energy, mood, weight, sleep, libido, recovery, and cognition. When they’re out of balance, so is your health. At Kelowna Wellness Clinic, we use targeted bloodwork and advanced DUTCH hormone testing to better understand your hormone patterns, metabolism, and stress response, then build a personalized plan to help restore healthy rhythm and function.
Conditions Linked to Imbalance
- Fatigue or low energy
- PMS, perimenopause, menopause symptoms, or low libido
- Anxiety, poor sleep, mood swings, or brain fog
- Thyroid concerns, weight changes, or poor recovery
Our Updated Testing Approach
We combine blood testing for key markers such as thyroid, metabolic health, inflammation, and select hormone levels with DUTCH testing, an advanced dried urine hormone test used to assess sex hormones, adrenal hormones, cortisol patterns, and hormone metabolites.
Why DUTCH Testing?
DUTCH testing provides a more complete view of hormone activity by looking not only at hormone levels, but also how hormones are being processed and cleared by the body. This can help Dr. Barlow better understand patterns related to estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, cortisol, cortisone, melatonin, oxidative stress, and select nutrient-related markers.
What to Expect
- Easy at-home dried urine collection kit
- Four urine collection strips collected over a 24-hour period
- Comprehensive review of sex hormones, adrenal hormones, cortisol, and metabolites
- Personalized plan with clear targets and follow-ups
- Re-testing when needed to confirm progress and refine treatment

Ready to Feel Like You Again?
You don’t have to wait for symptoms to start taking control of your health. When your hormones, nutrition, and digestion are in balance, your body performs the way it’s meant to.
Replenish. Restore. Recharge.

- Athletic recovery & performance
- Headaches or migraines

Our Approach
Formulas are tailored by Dr. Barlow to your goals and labs. Whether immune boosting, post-exercise recovery, or metabolic support, infusions are physician-supervised and use high-quality nutrients.
What to Expect
- Brief health assessment before your first infusion
- Treatments take 30–60 minutes in a comfortable setting
- Many patients feel an energy lift within 24 hours
- Frequency varies — weekly, monthly, or as needed

Identify the Foods Triggering Your Symptoms.
Not all food reactions are immediate. Many sensitivities cause delayed inflammation hours or even days later. This type of hidden allergy can lead to digestive problems, skin issues, fatigue, and more.
Conditions Linked to Food Sensitivities
- Bloating, gas, indigestion
- IBS or irregular bowel movements
- Migraines or headaches
- Eczema, psoriasis, acne
- Fatigue or “brain fog”
Our Approach
Dr. Barlow uses IgG-mediated blood testing to measure immune response to over 100 foods. Results guide elimination diets and supplement protocols to reduce inflammation and restore gut balance.
What to Expect
- Simple blood draw in-office
- Results in 2–3 weeks
- Personalized plan to remove and reintroduce foods safely
