What I Do:
I focus on the management of chronic disease, preventative medicine, and optimizing and maintaining wellness. My therapies are centered in lifestyle counseling for each person including dietary, sleep, and exercise recommendations; nutrient supplementation and herbal medicine, energetic medicine including homeopathy, biotherapeutic drainage and flower essences; and hydrotherapy. All of these therapies can be utilized with any stage of wellness and are focused to assist and restore the body’s natural healing processes.
From the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians website:
Naturopathic physicians combine the wisdom of nature with the rigors of modern science. Steeped in traditional healing methods, principles and practices, naturopathic medicine focuses on holistic, proactive prevention and comprehensive diagnosis and treatment. By using protocols that minimize the risk of harm, naturopathic physicians help facilitate the body's inherent ability to restore and maintain optimal health. It is the naturopathic physician's role to identify and remove barriers to good health by helping to create a healing internal and external environment.
