As a practitioner of personalized (integrative) care I assess all the factors of your daily existence that impact the way you feel and design a personalized treatment plan to restore your body’s function based on the most current scientific medical literature. Your stress level, diet, exercise habits, sleep patterns, medications, family history, genetics, past experiences, toxic exposures and more
all contribute to how your mind and body are functioning at this present time. I focus on early detection of disease, preventative and proactive treatment to enhance longevity and vitality.
“I reject the notion that the quality of our life, that our energy and our mental capacity must decay as time passes by.”
We will discuss where you are presently and where it is you want to be physically and mentally and work to systematically knock down hurdles to make it possible. All you need to be successful is a willingness to change old self-limiting habits and we will guide you in a stepwise fashion to better health. Traditional medicine has many virtues but unfortunately we are not taught in medical school how to make people truly “healthy”. We are taught disease-based medicine and shown how to use drugs to reduce symptoms. We rarely target the source of the problem and few drugs address the true cause of disease. Drugs have value and are powerful tools that I use when appropriate but there is much more we can do beyond this to improve your physiology, providing balance and restore good health. Personalized medicine is the pursuit of optimal health, of a dynamic body with excellent vitality, boundless energy, restful sleep, sharp mind, disease resistance, greater quality of life with less pain, greater movement, low blood pressure and heart rates, and excellent lab numbers that reflect a body in harmony with it’s environment. This is our quest.
