I went to Ananta Health to try to deal with some significant GI and pain issues. I saw Dr. Risk and she was helpful and laid out a plan after her clinical testing for me to follow. The office was always friendly and helpful whenever I called or emailed. I definitely recommend Dr.Risk! It was all natural high quality supplements, they worked within my budget.I can safely say that I feel so much better.I wasn’t sure what to expect but am thankful
I highly recommend Ananta Health and Dr. Risk.
I saw Dr. Risk after three miscarriages, looking to bring my body into better health to support a pregnancy. She listened to all my health concerns, ran her diagnostics and put me on a health plan.It took only two weeks to start noticing changes: I had energy! I was sleeping better. I stopped clenching my teeth. My gut was healing, my tennis elbow was healing, and my menses improved. I also had a successful pregnancy and have a happy baby boy!
Dr. Risk's treatment is the best I have received in a long time. I traditonally receive Western treatment, however, with my ailment traditional Western Doctors did not give me the care needed. Western doctors were more about 'masking the issue' instead of finding the root of the issues and a solution that would resolve what was really going on. Ultamately, addressing the issue. Dr. RIsk did that and more. Issues that were contibuting to the ailment were resolved and I haven't been more heathy. A real, down to earth and matter of fact practitioner that listens and addresses. Thank you!!
It would do some of these western Dr.'s some good to take a page from her book or at the least use this type of treatment in conjunction with their treatment
My life was turning for the worst, could not get up for work, family life was terrible, I had enough energy to survive and that was about it. After my first visit with Dr. Risk, I had hope. She knows how to listen and she doesn't give you that weird look some doctors give you when you talk about how you feel, yes you know the look.... She listens and you can almost hear her think and trying to connect the dots. I began treatment, that was very hard at first but after few days I started to see light at the end of the tunnel. I slowly began to have more energy and be myself again. Works is going great and I have a family life again. She changed my life!
After my daughter was born, I was suffering constant fatigue; repeated colds, flus, and bouts of mastitis; and a general sense of unwellness - all of which was very uncharacteristic for me. I am normally a healthy, active, and happy person. My doctor wasn't very interested in my symptoms and didn't take their affect on my life very seriously. After about 8 months I found Dr. Rebecca - she's amazing. She was able to get to the bottom of what felt like a very nebulous condition in a single visit, and within a few weeks I was feeling like my old self again. Her techniques and treatments are extremely focused and effective, and she is extremely knowledgeable. I recommend her services often and without hesitation. She really is amazing!
I was delighted and hopeful to recently have found Dr. Risk, a health professional who not onlt successsfully beat Lyme Disease but who now treats this devastating disease with success.
For those of us with Lyme, the battle for effective treatment in Alberta is a huge and frustrating experience. Yet from my first appointment with Dr. Risk I was treated with understanding, compassion and most importantly, given hope for recovery.
I have found Dr. Risk to be extremely patient, knowlegeable and Lyme literate - a rarity amongst health professionals. Not only is she all this but she is willing to spend the time necessary in treating a complicated and debilitating disease with dogged perserverence..
I'm so thankful I found Dr. Risk and highly recommend her!
I've been a patient of Dr. Risk for over two years to address a number of concerns including knee osteoarthritis, various muscle injuries and a cluster of complaints which we now know to be caused by Celiac disease. Dr. Risk is compassionate, experienced and truly looking to improve your health with the aim of future visits being solely for maintenance.
I have been impressed with the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), both the treatment modalities (i.e. acupuncture, moxa) and the supplements Dr. Risk has provided to improve my severe arthritis and help heal sports injuries. Dr. Risk also used BioMeridian testing to assess me as having Celiac disease/gluten intolerance. I went from sleeping 10-12 hours a day, fighting depression and suffering various gastrointestinal complaints to enjoying lots of energy on 8 solid hours of sleep, eliminated the chronic swelling in my knees, and feel happy and productive.
I may not understand or be able to appreciate the subtleties of TCM but all I have to do is look at my results and be grateful that I found Dr. Risk. She's easy to talk to and takes the time to uncover how seemingly unrelated symptoms may be related to a single cause and then effectively treats it. I can't recommend her highly enough.
