Our Services
Naturopathic healthcare provides foundational tools to help folks improve their health using natural medicine. We emphasize educating and empowering people invested in their health to realize their goals in achieving improved wellness.
Cultivate Your Vitality!
You can think of your ND as your personal trainer in wellness and set up a lifelong relationship wherein you are coached to create consistent positive progress in your health. One of the goals of naturopathic medicine is to take the emphasis off of symptoms and diseases, and focus instead on health and how to achieve it. Through this process, preventing chronic disease may be realized. Those who already have chronic illness can often find true relief or even reversal with naturopathic medicine, rather than masking symptoms with medications that, in turn, may cause more symptoms. Why settle for a drug-induced diminishment of your disease when you may actually be able to get better?
Preventive and Family Healthcare
Naturopathic doctors are trained to understand not only the physiology of how the body functions, but also to be able to figure out what went wrong when disease is present. An ND's tool bag is overstuffed with treatment options whereas conventional medicine often offers little more than pharmaceuticals or surgery.
Asking WHY is the first step in determining how to remedy a problem. Of course, looking at the whole picture rather than just a few details is also essential in this investigation. Approaching a patient holistically is the only way to truly understand why illness is happening the way it is.
Preventive and family healthcare... we offer guidance in preventing chronic illness and love to work with your whole family in a holistic manner.
Diagnostics and Health Planning
Our services include ordering & interpreting lab tests and planning for future health, for yourself or your children (even future children, e.g. preconception detox).
Everyone must die someday, but how do you want to live your last days on this earth? Will you be gardening, surfing and traveling at 90 or will you be on 10 medications, alone and barely droning on in some institutional elder “home"? Make an appointment today to improve the quality of your life and health now, and for the rest of your life.
After your discovery call, if we are a good fit, you will be invited to schedule a complete wellness evaluation which consists of a personal health consultation, evaluation of wellness factors, review of recent labs and formulating a plan of action to begin forging a path to wellness.
Nutritional Guidance and Support
What you eat is at the center of how healthy you are, or want to be. Nutrition is a huge part of naturopathic medicine—what we eat and drink profoundly affects our health in many ways; food allergies and fasting/cleansing programs are also important considerations. Whether you want to just eat healthy or lose weight, a naturopathic nutrition plan is for you.
Much of today's chronic disease is due to poor diet and lifestyle factors and the resulting inflammation in the body. As your eating habits become healthier, so will you. Transforming life-long eating habits may seem daunting, so as you strive to follow naturopathic principles of a health-promoting diet, keep a sense of humor, enjoy your successes, and be patient with yourself.
Eating healthier does not mean counting calories or choosing flavorless or fad-diet foods, it's about providing nourishment to the body to encourage health and repair.
Botanical and Homeopathic Remedies
Botanical medicine tends to be a central focus for many NDs and when herbs are applied appropriately, they are wonderfully beneficial for most ailments, including serious disease. Understand that merely using herbs as substitutes for drugs is not a curative solution and that using only isolated constituents of an herb rather than availing upon it’s whole synergistic self may be tempting, but is often misleading and might even be harmful. Herbs often work in concert with one another. The best herbal formulations take these concepts into consideration.
Homeopathy is energy medicine based on the principle that “like cures like” (a substance in “potentized” form may cure a disharmony which can be produced by that same substance in crude form); it involves the dilution of natural substances (often past Avogadro’s number), relying on the energy of the material and/or the water molecules’ memory of it to create or invite the potential for the person’s own vitality to move towards healing. A visual representation of how this works is opposing magnets. When your body takes in the remedy "magnet," the symptom picture "magnet" with the same polarity is pushed away.
Mind-Body Connection
It is important to be aware that the mind is never separate from the body, so all disease has mental and emotional elements. Mental/emotional imbalances can lead to illness and disease and nutrient deficiencies or allergies can manifest as mental/emotional imbalances.... Negative thoughts and emotions can act as toxins. The benefits of overcoming negative thought patterns can be just the ticket you need to enter into an improved state of wellbeing. And adverse childhood experiences can impact development of adult disease because toxic stress affects development of the brain and body. These past experiences can still be addressed at any time in life, to the benefit of your health. Stress, alone, may not be dangerous but perceiving it to be so, is.... We have many tools available to address the mental/emotional aspects of your health journey.
