Naturopathic Womens Wellness Clinic — An Honest Editorial Review
For patients scanning fertility clinics in Colorado who want a naturopathic, whole-body layer alongside (or before) a conventional fertility workup, Naturopathic Womens Wellness Clinic in north Boulder is a small, women-led naturopathic practice focused on hormone balancing, preconception support, PCOS, and thyroid care. It is not a medical fertility clinic and does not perform IVF or IUI.
About the Practice
The Boulder clinic is led by Dr. Hillary Martin, ND (licensed in Colorado and California) and Dr. Katie Reinholtz, ND, both Colorado-licensed naturopathic doctors. Colorado is one of the roughly two dozen US states that license NDs under a dedicated DORA registration program, which sets a defined — but limited — scope of practice. Naturopathic doctors complete a four-year accredited naturopathic medical program and board exams; they are not MDs or DOs, and in Colorado they do not have the same prescriptive authority as a reproductive endocrinologist. Dr. Martin's clinical focus is autoimmune disease, thyroid, and hormones; Dr. Reinholtz focuses on women's health, thyroid, and digestive health. Initial visits run 60–90 minutes.
Services Offered
Services the practice provides directly:
- Naturopathic medicine consultations for women's health and preconception health
- Hormone balancing for PCOS, perimenopause, and irregular cycles
- Thyroid and adrenal workups with functional-medicine lab interpretation
- In-office blood draws, PAPs, and functional medicine testing
- Nutrition, botanical medicine, targeted supplement protocols, and homeopathy
- Hydrotherapy, body work, and structured detox/cleanse programs
- Pediatric naturopathic care
What This Practice Is — and Isn't
Naturopathic Womens Wellness does not perform IVF, IUI, egg retrievals, embryo transfers, or any ART procedure, and its NDs cannot prescribe the full range of fertility medications a reproductive endocrinologist uses — gonadotropins, trigger shots, and most cycle-stimulation drugs are outside ND scope in Colorado. ND prescriptive authority in the state is narrow, and many fertility-specific pharmaceuticals are explicitly excluded. Patients who need clinical ART are referred out. If you are looking for an IVF program, start with the Colorado REI directory. This clinic is not a SART-reporting practice because it does not run ART cycles.
Patient Experience
The clinic holds a 5.0/132 Google rating — a strong signal for a small boutique practice where appointments are long and practitioner-led rather than technician-led. Reviews consistently mention feeling heard, thorough lab review, and conservative, step-wise protocols. Individual experiences vary; confirm fit during the intake.
Colorado Insurance Note
Colorado's fertility insurance mandate (HB21-1008), in effect since 2023, requires large-group state-regulated health plans to cover IVF, fertility preservation, and diagnostic testing. Naturopathic visits themselves are typically out-of-pocket, but the underlying clinical workup you may eventually need — and any IVF cycle — is more likely to be covered than it was a few years ago. Our insurance mandates by state guide and IVF cost by state breakdown explain what mandate coverage actually looks like in Colorado.
Considering At-Home Insemination?
Patients drawn to a naturopathic, lower-intervention path often ask about at-home options before clinical treatment. At-home intracervical insemination (ICI) is a reasonable, private starting point for single parents by choice, same-sex couples, and people without a known diagnosis. MakeAMom kits are reusable, ship in plain packaging, and pair cleanly with the cycle-tracking and preconception work an ND practice already supports. They are not a substitute for medical care if you have a known fertility diagnosis.
When to Add a Clinical REI
Naturopathic care is a reasonable first or parallel step, but it is not a substitute for diagnostics. Add a reproductive endocrinologist if you have been trying 12 months (six if over 35), have irregular cycles, known tubal or uterine issues, prior miscarriages, or an abnormal semen analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Dr. Martin and Dr. Reinholtz MDs? No. Both are licensed naturopathic doctors (ND). Colorado licenses NDs under DORA, but ND training, scope, and prescriptive authority differ from MDs and from reproductive endocrinologists.
Does the clinic perform IVF or IUI? No. They provide naturopathic consultations, hormone and thyroid workups, nutrition, and botanical/supplement protocols. IVF, IUI, and most cycle-stimulation medications are outside ND scope in Colorado.
Can I see this clinic alongside a fertility clinic? Yes — this is the typical pattern. Many patients use an ND for preconception optimization, PCOS support, and thyroid management in parallel with an REI.
