Our team & Philosophy
Integrative medicine, sometimes referred to as holistic medicine or complementary medicine, combines conventional and alternative approaches to address the biological, psychological, social, and spiritual aspects of health and illness. Our services are available for all ages.
Our Integrative Medicine Program focuses on healing the whole person, with the goal of improving the quality of life for patients, their families, and others close to them.
We use Traditional Japanese style Acupuncture, Moxibustion, Shiatsu massage, Osteopathy, and Manual physical therapy techniques to treat the body as an integrated whole.
We believe that the different parts of the body are intimately interconnected, making it necessary to look at the body as a whole when addressing a health problem. We combine the best of Eastern traditions while complimenting traditional Western medical practice.
Chronic medical problems can create a vicious cycle. Often a visit with a doctor for a new problem is treated with medication. The medication may remedy a symptom but may not resolve the actual cause of the problem.
When medications are prescribed for an initial problem without addressing the underlying cause, a more chronic condition can follow. Additional medications are often prescribed to counter the adverse effects of the others.
Over time, this wears down physiological function and vitality.
Family disease patterns, lifestyle factors, nutritional factors, diet, and energetics are part of an integrative approach to promote good and long-lasting health.
Western medicine specialists practice medicine by prescribing medications and surgery; Integrative Medicine specialists practice medicine by restoring health without interfering with the body’s natural function.
You choose your health by choosing your doctor.
