We offer a very comprehensive approach to natural care, often working alongside your western medical practitioner to enhance results. We understand that seeking out alternative medicine might be new to you, so we’ve broken down our process below.

In advance of your initial appointment, we send you a welcome email with a detailed intake form. The form will ask about your current health concerns, habits, health history, family history, emotional wellness, daily nutrition and overall routine. You will also be given the option to send your doctor’s lab results and notes.

During your initial session we will deep dive into the details of your current health including all of the information included I the intake, as well as any additional fears or concerns.

We then guide you through the WHY of what you are experiencing.  What the underlying causes are, what is making the issues better or worse and how lifestyle, diet, emotional wellbeing, environmental toxins and other factors may be adversing affecting your health.

Next up we help you formulate a plan.  We help to customize a plan involving nutritional, lifestyle and integrative medicine to help you reach your goals.  Suggested daily routines, acupuncture protocols, nutritional plans, vitamin and herbal regimes are combined to facilitate and accelerate healing.
