Natural and Integrative Medicine Consults are designed for individuals seeking a thoughtful, evidence-informed and experienced approach to improving their health through nutrition, lifestyle, and carefully selected natural therapies.
These comprehensive consultations begin with an in-depth review of your medical history, current health concerns, medications, laboratory findings, diet, sleep, stress, physical activity, and personal health goals. Together, we develop an individualized plan that addresses the underlying factors that may be contributing to illness or may be preventing your optimum health while supporting your body's natural capacity for healing.
Recommendations may include nutritional optimization, therapeutic diets, exercise, sleep improvement, stress reduction, mind-body practices, vitamin and mineral supplementation, botanical medicines, and other scientifically supported natural therapies. When appropriate, these approaches are thoughtfully integrated with conventional medical treatment to provide the safest and most effective care.
Many patients seek consultation to increase energy, improve digestive health, lessen chronic pain, improve mental health, stamina and endurance, decrease cardiovascular risk, strengthen immune function, or increase overall wellness. Others wish to reduce their dependence on medications when it can be done safely and in collaboration with their healthcare team. Any adjustment to prescription medications is made cautiously and only when medically appropriate as well as, if necessary, in consultation with other members of the patient’s medical team.
Our goal is to create a practical, individualized plan that helps you achieve better health, prevent future illness, decrease or minimize medication side effects and improve your quality of life through sustainable, long-term changes that support your body's remarkable capacity for healing.
