Pittsford, NY 14534
I focus on finding the root cause of an illness and treat the whole person. I was trained as a primary care doctor and combine the science of traditional western medicine with complementary therapies. As a wellness consultant I use herbal medicine, homeopathy, nutrition, lifestyle counseling and physical medicines to support the body in the healing process. As a specialty I also use Applied Kinesiology and the Body Code.

How to tell if Naturopathy is right for me?
A Rochester naturopath is a practitioner of naturopathy, a form of alternative medicine based on the idea that the body has an innate capacity to heal itself. Rochester Naturopaths improve health by treating the person holistically, tapping a person's own internal body, mind, and spirit resources. Naturopathy comprises a blend of different therapies, all attempting to restore the body to health in the most natural, noninvasive way possible by stimulating the body's own healing powers.
