I believe health comes from being able to identify what the obstacles are to your healing. Whether these are internal imbalances, external toxins or a combination of both, identifying the root is the key to taking your health back.

Mind. Body. Spirit. The three aspects of what makes each of us who we are – all vitally important to consider and address in the journey toward optimal health.

"To support, educate and listen to all my patients as I truly believe every human being is different and needs custom care and treatment options in achieving their health goals."

The goal of my clinic is to restore a person's body to balance and optimal health. This is accomplished by using the constituents of the body, such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and neurotransmitters as well as addressing physical and energetic mis-alignments. Success is also achieved by considering as many aspects of a person as possible, or treating the whole person, and not just relieving a set of isolated ailments; the premise behind Naturopathic medicine is to find the root cause of illness and to address health concerns at their very core, rather than focusing solely on symptoms.

In order to help my patients, I need to know their story. Health problems don't start the first time that a person has a pain, or the first night of insomnia. They started well before that first bout. For example, the problem started long before one develops IBS: IBS is a symptom of the problem. That is why it is so important to take a full history--not just current things but things that may have begun in childhood. So what I do is to listen and ask questions and listen. Once we are both satisfied, we can develop a plan--the goal of which is to help you reach YOUR best state of health.
