Optimal Health:Integrated Health Care is the use of all options available that provide for the best interests of the patients, with the least risks. We favor a team approach that is “Patient-Centered”. The naturopathic physician uses the least invasive, yet effective therapy to promote healing, to treat acute and chronic illnesses, and to prevent chronic degenerative conditions. Finding the cause of the disease means addressing physical, mental, and emotional health. Treating the whole person is the goal.
Homeopathy:A powerful system of medicine that is more than 200 years old used to cure illness. Homeopathic remedies act to enhance the body's innate immune response and rarely have side effects. Some conditions that do not respond well to conventional medicine will respond to homeopathic therapies. Helpful Homeopathic Information: How to take Homeopathic Remedies - Sprinkle directly from cap into mouth 1-2 pellets (the number does not matter it is how often it is taken) Should take 30 minutes away from food either side!
Nutrition:Using food to maintain health and the therapeutic use of food to treat illness.
Botanical MedicineThe use of plants as medicine. Many plant substances are powerful medicines that are safe and effective when used properly.
Lifestyle Counseling:Mental attitudes and emotional states can be important elements in healing illness.
Stress Management:Identifying and removing underlying causes of illness.
Hydrotherapy:The use of water in the treatment of disease. The benefits of hydrotherapy have been recognized for thousands of years.
Functional Medicine:Assesses the underlying causes of illness through individually tailoring therapies to restore health and improve function.
Food Allergy Testing:Many of the chronic health problems you are experiencing are the result of poor dietary and lifestyle choices. Illnesses such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, cancer and gastrointestinal problems develop as a consequence of the foods we choose. Nutrition is the backbone of naturopathic medicine. By changing our diets and adopting a healthy lifestyle, we can often change or reverse the course of an illness and retore health.
