Total Water Cleaners

Water is vital…it is the essence of life. Did you know that your body can be made up of as much as 70% water. Water is the most important resource we have and most people take it for granted. You can survive weeks without food, but go just one day without water and your body becomes stressed. Go a few days without water, and they may be your last. The blood vessels of your body carry the nutrients of life to every part of your body, just like the rivers and streams are the life force of the land. Where there is water, there is life.

Total Water Cleaner’s “Whole Home Water Cleaner” will provide you and your family with healthy, chlorine-free, chemical free water for all of your daily uses. Whether you’re drinking it, cooking with it, or showering and bathing your kids in it, you will feel the difference clean water makes.

Dr. Eduardo Barreto

Welcome!

In Colombia, Dr. Barreto was trained as a medical doctor, then went on to specialize in alternative medicine, studying homeopathy, acupuncture, and a variety of other modalities. He worked for over fifteen years as a family physician, providing mainstream as well as alternative health care. In that time, he learned the importance of taking the time to see patients holistically (spirit, mind and body) and that a healthy lifestyle is fundamental in the prevention, treatment and recuperation from pain and illness.

Dr. Barreto continued his studies after moving to Canada, and is currently a full member of the Pan European Federation of Traditional Chinese Medicine Societies and a certified Natural Health Consultant. As well, Dr. Barreto works with ACU-acupuncture Services Ltd., teaching Introductory and Advanced Certificate courses and workshops to healthcare professionals wanting to expand their skills and knowledge in acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine.

What happens during a consultation with Dr. Barreto?

The initial consultation is a conversation that may last for about two hours, while follow-up appointments last from 30-60 minutes. Dr. Barreto will listen carefully and empathetically to what you say – and sometimes to what you don’t say – in order to understand many different aspects of your personality and state of health. He will ask you questions about yourself and your health, and among other things, he will be looking at how you move your body and how you react to stress. Each consultation is a chance for you to better understand yourself and your health. It is important to express yourself honestly, since the better Dr. Barreto understands your nature, the easier it will be to find the best remedy for you.

Depending on your preference and on his recommendation, your course of treatment with Dr. Barreto may focus on acupuncture, homeopathy, Metabolic Balance® program or other modalitie.  Some of the homeopathic remedies that Dr. Barreto prescribes are available for purchase at minimal cost.

ReVitamins of Charleswood

Now Open! Herbs & Supplements Hand-picked by Vitamin Guru Yong Lee.

Quite different product lineup from other vitamin stores.

I got a medical degree in South Korea, and came to Canada because I couldn’t find the solution of my health problem, consistent headache and mild depression.

In Korea, I tried main stream medical prescription drugs and Chinese herbal medicine but to no avail.

I came to Canada for refreshment because I thought new environment would relieve the symptom.

Then, I became interested in ortho-molecular  medicine and nutritional or herbal remedy for my symptom, and found the solution for my symptom, voilà!!

My strength lies on solutions for aging, memory loss, and fatigue. And my store is ready for other problems too.
