“Naturopathic Medicine”

“Functional Medicine”

“Integrative Medicine”

— A rose by any other name would smell as sweet —

What does it mean?

All these names, including Eastern Medicine is an approach to care that puts the patient at the center and addresses the full range of physical, emotional, mental, and environmental influences that affect a person’s health

What is the biggest difference compared to a “Conventional/Allopathic” M.D.?

Our focus is finding and treating the ROOT cause of the illness/problem

We do NOT focus on the SYMPTOMS

We do NOT use allopathic pharmaceuticals

Our primary tools are food & diet changes, detoxing, homeopathic & herbal medicine

However keep in mind, even though we do NOT prescribe medicine and treat differently than a regular MD, we do work TOGETHER.

Pharmaceutical Medicine is NOT Bad/Evil/Etc.

What tools / exams do you use?

Blood / Urine / Hair Exams, X-rays & MRIs

Iridology – taking a picture of your Iris and determine individual’s health needs
